About Automation

Cisco XDR Automation provides a no-to-low code approach for building automated workflows. These workflows can interact with various types of resources and systems. With Automation, you can leverage Cisco and third-party multi-domain systems, applications, databases, and network devices in your environment to create workflows.

  • Automate - Eliminate repetitive tasks that waste valuable time.
  • Investigate - Reduce time to investigate by automating data collection and incident generation.
  • Respond - Create automated responses that can combine multiple products into one action.
  • Integrate - Bring products and services together in new ways to multiply their effectiveness and address emerging threats.
