ServiceNow Security Incident Response for Proactive Threat Response
Sotiotech Team
SecOps Practice · January 30, 2025

Security teams cannot afford manual handoffs when incidents escalate. ServiceNow SIR brings case management, enrichment, and response automation into a single record — integrated with SIEM alerts, threat intelligence, and ITSM change controls.
Design principles
Map your top ten incident types to automated playbooks first. Integrate enrichment early so analysts spend time deciding, not copying data. Tie major incidents to problem and change records to close the loop on root cause and preventive controls.
