Implementation in autobotAI Use Cases

Security Operations: Incident Response

Explainability: When a bot detects and enriches a suspected breach:

  • Execution logs show exact threat intelligence sources consulted
  • AI reasoning explains why threat confidence is high/medium/low
  • Evidence is presented (malicious IP reputation, file hash verdicts, etc.)
  • Remediation recommendation includes supporting context

Accountability:

  • Alert triggers bot-driven investigation, then pauses for human approval
  • Security analyst reviews enriched threat data and AI recommendation
  • Analyst approves or rejects remediation action
  • Action is logged with analyst name, timestamp, and decision

Fairness:

  • Similar threats are handled consistently regardless of affected asset
  • Alert enrichment uses multiple threat intelligence sources
  • Remediation thresholds are uniform across the environment

Human-Centric:

  • Bot automates investigation (data gathering)
  • Human makes containment decision (approve/reject/modify)
  • Analyst can override recommendation if needed
  • System learns from overrides

Security:

  • Bot credentials are limited to read operations
  • Remediation actions require escalated approval
  • All actions logged to audit trail

Compliance:

  • Incident response proves timely detection and remediation
  • Audit trail documents evidence and decisions
  • Automated response meets SLA requirements

Compliance Automation: Policy Violations

Explainability: When a bot finds a compliance violation from posture management integration:

  • Specific rule that was violated is documented
  • Evidence showing the violation is captured (e.g., "data not encrypted")
  • AI suggestion explains why the issue needs remediation
  • Expected compliance outcome is clear

Accountability:

  • Remediation workflow requires approval from resource owner to make corrective action.
  • Resource owner confirms the fix is appropriate
  • Action is logged with resource owner's name, approval time and reason.

Fairness:

  • All resources are checked consistently against the same policies
  • Similar violations receive similar remediation
  • Resources applicable to a rule are checked; non-applicable resources are skipped
  • No resources are treated arbitrarily

Human-Centric:

  • Bot identifies violations, humans decide remediation approach
  • Compliance team can customize policies and thresholds
  • Override capability for exceptions is available

Security:

  • Remediation actions are minimized (least privilege)
  • Only authorized personnel can approve fixes

Compliance:

  • Violations are captured for audit reports
  • Evidence of remediation is documented
  • Automated checks ensure continuous compliance

Access Management: Just-in-Time Provisioning

Explainability: When a bot processes an access request:

  • Reason for access request is captured.
  • AI recommendation explains why access is approved/denied or sent to authorized human approval.
  • Risk assessment is shown (user history, resource sensitivity, IP location and reputation etc.).
  • Approval conditions are listed.

Accountability:

  • Access approval is made by appropriate manager if access involves any calculated risk.
  • Approval is logged with manager name, reason and timestamp.
  • Access grant is traceable to specific approval.
  • Revocation is automatic when need expires.

Fairness:

  • Similar access requests are evaluated consistently.
  • No biased favoritism in approvals.
  • All requests follow same evaluation criteria.

Human-Centric:

  • Manager reviews request and makes approval decision when required and low risk and short time access are provided automatically.
  • AI suggests duration and scope; manager can override.
  • Requests can be approved, denied, or conditionally approved

Security:

  • Access tokens are scoped and time-limited.
  • Credentials used for access are secured and logged.
  • Revocation is enforced when terms expire.

Compliance:

  • Access decisions are documented for audit
  • Evidence supporting approvals is captured
  • Compliant with least-privilege principles
