Hi All,
I’ve developed a script that takes a list of SOC detections and/or playbook titles, analyses associated metadata, and automatically generates full Standard Operating Procedures — ready for upload into Confluence or as a simple text file for import elsewhere.
SOPs matter because they provide clear, consistent instructions, ensure standards are upheld, and make sure nothing critical is overlooked. In today’s digital battlespace, no cyber defender should go into the fight without a solid plan.
To give you some perspective: drafting just one decent SOP manually can take over three hours, often a day. This script generated 1,287 SOPs in a single day. For a human, that’s between six months and three years of work at a 40-hour week… assuming they didn’t abandon the task out of sheer boredom.
They’re outputted in draft format and still require some minimal human input. Our process is simple but effective: draft, review and amend, test in real-world scenarios, and then feed improvements back into a continuous improvement loop. So far, it’s proving to be the quickest and most organised approach.
If you’re curious or would like to see it in action, drop me a message.
