OpenSOAR vs Shuffle

OpenSOAR is an open-source platform for automating security alert handling with Python playbooks. It accepts alerts through webhooks, Elasticsearch polling, and syslog, then can normalize their data, extract indicators of compromise, and remove duplicates. Playbooks are asynchronous Python functions that teams can test, version, and run with standard Python packages. The execution engine supports parallel actions, timeouts, retries, and exponential backoff. For incident work, OpenSOAR can create and link cases, assign them, add comments and observables to timelines, and surface correlation suggestions. Listed integrations include Elastic Security, VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB, Slack, and Email; a Python SDK can be extended. AI options include Claude, OpenAI, and Ollama for tasks such as summarization, triage recommendations, playbook generation, and correlation. The maker says local Ollama can keep AI triage data within the network. OpenSOAR is self-hosted, with Docker Compose deployment documented, and is available on the web and through an API. The free plan is free, with no feature gates or per-action billing. The homepage labels the product beta.

Shuffle Security is a security operations platform for incident response across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid infrastructure. It describes automated triage and threat enrichment, suggested response actions, and visibility into automated decisions; its AI can use cloud LLM APIs or models supplied by users. The homepage advertises more than 3,000 MCP-ready integrations, including Splunk, CrowdStrike, Sentinel, and ServiceNow. Teams can build integrations with an SDK, and integrations support bidirectional sync. Shuffle Pipelines can ingest and parse data and match Sigma rules with Tenzir; host monitors address endpoint compliance and remote response. Described checks cover encryption, screenlock, patching, and MDM posture, alongside software inventory and vulnerability matching. It can run on-premises or self-hosted on cloud platforms such as GCP, AWS, or Azure, and is listed for web and API use. Starter begins with 2,000 free App-Runs, a measure of workflow executions; the plan is $29 a month for 10,000 App-Runs and includes 10 workflows, five users, and one tenant.
