Group tools by their primary purpose (e.g., service management, network monitoring, endpoint security, identity management).

Assess whether each tool is essential for current and future operations based on business needs and IT strategy.

Identify tools with overlapping functionalities and evaluate opportunities for consolidation to reduce complexity and cost.

Examine how tools integrate with each other and with Alnylam s core systems (Active Directory, Infoblox, ticketing platforms) to ensure seamless workflows.

Review licensing models, renewal cycles, and cost implications of maintaining multiple tools; identify potential savings through rationalization.

Validate tools against security, compliance, and governance requirements; identify any gaps or risks.

Assess tool performance, usability, and adoption levels among IT teams and end-users.

Perform tool evaluations, gap analysis, and proof-of-concept testing for new security technologies.

Collaborate with engineering and service delivery teams to understand security solutions tailored to organizational needs.

Integrate tool data with other platforms (e.g., Elasticsearch, ticketing systems).

Document processes, configurations, and maintain a knowledge base for cybersecurity tools.

Ensure tools align with frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and DoD RMF.
