# Alastor InfoSec for IT Teams

Security is rarely anyone's full-time job on a small IT team — it's the thing squeezed in between help desk tickets, infrastructure upkeep, and everything else. Alastor InfoSec is built to run in the background and surface only what actually needs your attention.

## The Problem Lean IT Teams Have

Most IT teams doubling as the security function don't have time to run manual scans, chase down vendor questionnaires, or piece together compliance evidence by hand. What they need is a system that watches continuously and tells them exactly what to fix, in plain terms, without requiring a dedicated security specialist to interpret it.

## What Changes With Alastor InfoSec

- **Continuous scanning that runs itself** — [Alastor Pulse](/products/alastor-pulse) and [Enforster AI](/products/enforster-ai) handle SAST, DAST, and infrastructure scanning continuously, without someone manually kicking off scans.
- **GitHub leak detection** — [GitHub Security](/features/github-security) catches exposed credentials and secrets in commits and repos before they become an incident IT has to clean up.
- **Clear, actionable findings** — reports prioritize what's exploitable and urgent over an undifferentiated list of every possible finding, so a generalist IT team knows what to fix first.
- **Compliance evidence without a compliance hire** — [Alastor Shield](/products/alastor-shield) automates the evidence collection that would otherwise fall on IT to assemble manually every audit cycle.
- **Cloud misconfigurations caught early** — [Cloud Security](/features/cloud-security) flags exposed storage buckets, overly permissive IAM roles, and other common misconfigurations before they're found by someone else first.

## Common Triggers We See

- IT is handling security as a side responsibility with no dedicated headcount
- A recent scare (phishing attempt, leaked credential, exposed bucket) raised the question "what else don't we know about?"
- A customer or partner is asking for compliance evidence IT doesn't currently have a process to produce
- Onboarding new cloud infrastructure or SaaS tools faster than anyone is reviewing their security configuration

## Where to Start

Most IT teams start with [Cloud Security](/features/cloud-security) and [GitHub Security](/features/github-security) scans to catch the most common, most preventable exposures fast, then expand into continuous VAPT as the relationship matures.
