monotonous workflow

The problem 

Building Slack (or Microsoft Teams) bots to interact with users in your organization is a great way to add human oversight or assistance to automated processes.

However, building reliable bots requires coding, deploying, and maintaining software – usually requiring a dependency on a development team.

The solution 

  • Tines supports building powerful Slack bots without writing code.

  • Send channel notifications when security events occur.

  • Provide users with buttons to take immediate action (e.g. ‘close ticket’)

  • Build interactive bots for rich, dynamic experiences

We communicate primarily on Slack, company-wide. Tines allows us to integrate many common investigatory functions directly into our communication there. Instead of having to open three tabs in a web browser and engage with multiple tools, we can do it all with one command in Slack.

  • Notifying the team of new security alerts
