D3 SOAR vs Rundeck

D3 Smart SOAR automates security operations workflows and incident response as SaaS hosted by D3 or on-premises software. Its Event Pipeline normalizes, deduplicates, triages, and enriches alerts; D3 claims this can reduce events requiring human attention by up to 99%. A codeless playbook editor, ready-made library, and reusable automation blocks support response workflows. Smart SOAR integrates with hundreds of tools across SIEM, EDR, NDR, TIP, and ITSM categories. D3 says it will build missing integrations free of charge. Threat-intelligence reputation results enrich incidents and contribute to an overall risk score. Existing playbooks and integrations cover phishing, ransomware, and password resets. Full multi-tenancy supports managed security service providers and managed detection and response firms. The platform includes event triggers, scheduled runs, approval steps, incident integrations, and audit logs. D3’s customer-success program describes implementation planning, training, integration optimization, technical documentation, and Customer Success Manager support. Pricing is on request, with a demo request offered.
