ContraForce is pleased to announce enhanced Gamebook automation and mapping capabilities, designed to improve incident response efficacy across your customer workspaces.

## What Are Gamebooks?

Gamebooks are ContraForce's SOP-driven incident response workflows. They guide analysts through investigation and response steps, ensuring consistent outcomes regardless of who is handling the incident.

## Automated Gamebook Mapping

ContraForce now automatically maps incidents to the appropriate Gamebook based on incident type, severity, and other characteristics. This means:

* **Faster time to action** — No manual Gamebook selection required
* **Consistent response** — Same incident types handled the same way
* **Reduced training burden** — Analysts don't need to memorize which Gamebook to use

## Enhanced Automation Modes

Gamebooks now support three automation levels:

| Mode           | Behavior                                             |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Manual**     | Analyst reviews and approves each step               |
| **Automatic**  | Steps execute automatically with analyst supervision |
| **Autonomous** | Full automation with minimal analyst involvement     |

## Improved Action Visibility

* See exactly which actions will be taken before execution
* Clear indicators for reversible vs. irreversible actions
* Detailed logs of all actions taken

## Getting Started

Gamebook automation is available now in all ContraForce workspaces:

1. Navigate to workspace settings
2. Configure Gamebook automation preferences
3. Set default automation levels per incident type
4. Monitor automated actions in the activity log

## Quick Summary

* Gamebooks are SOP-driven workflows that ensure consistent incident response across all analysts.
* Automated Gamebook mapping assigns the right workflow to each incident based on type and severity.
* Three automation modes (Manual, Automatic, Autonomous) let you control the level of human oversight.
* Improved visibility shows exactly which actions will be taken before execution.
