Security automation use cases

Now that once we have the tools set up, let's go through some of the standard tasks that allow us to do useful things with them. In case you haven't noticed, we love lists. Here is a list of tasks that will prepare you to build layers of automation for the stuff that is important to you:

1. Adding playbooks or connecting your source code management (SCM) tools, such as GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket
2. Authentication and data security
3. Logging output and managing reports for the automation jobs
4. Job scheduling
5. Alerting, notifications, and webhooks
