No, but it’s fundamentally changing them. Generative AI (GenAI) is quickly becoming an essential part of everyday security workflows. So … is it a partner or competitor? The wide-ranging implementation of GenAI technologies into virtually every aspect of the security stack has, on the whole, helped security teams work more efficiently to mitigate threats.

When your CISO asks if a specific browser extension has ever been installed on any of your workstations, how quickly can you get the correct answer? Malicious browser extensions are a significant threat that many organizations have no way of managing or detecting.

A quantitative approach to prompt tuning and LLM evaluation Elastic has long been developing machine learning (ML) and AI-powered security detections. We constantly bring in new technologies when available to help make our users’ lives easier. So, with the rise of generative AI (GenAI), we have developed even more Elastic Security features to use this powerful, new technology. Among those are.

Fraud in financial services is becoming more sophisticated, costing the industry billions annually and eroding customer trust. Recently, Deloitte published an article highlighting the risk AI brings in the form of fraudsters to the financial services industry: “Fake content has never been easier to create — or harder to catch. As threats grow, banks can invest in AI and other technologies to help detect fraud and prevent losses.”

Delivering exceptional performance and protection in rigorous evaluations Elastic Security has achieved remarkable results in the recent AV-Comparatives Business Security Test. This independent assessment underscores our commitment to providing world-class malware protection.

Giving valuable time back to threat intel analysts.

Implement AI-driven security analytics faster on Elastic Cloud Serverless, the easiest way to harness the innovations of Elastic Security Elastic Security on Elastic Cloud Serverless is now generally available. You can launch a deployment in minutes — no prior experience required. Serverless projects are fully managed, minimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) and providing immediate access to the powerful features of the Elastic Search AI Platform and Elastic Security.

In the modern IT ecosystem, securing containerized applications in environments like Kubernetes is vital. Tools like Falco help address this need by providing tooling that can be integrated within Elastic Security. Falco is a cloud-native security tool that provides runtime security across hosts, containers, Kubernetes, and cloud environments.

Elastic Security 8.16 is now available, advancing our mission to streamline security workflows with enhanced data accessibility and AI-driven analytics. Key updates include agentless onboarding for faster cloud security posture management (CSPM) and asset discovery; expanded integrations with Wiz, AWS Security Hub, and Falco for contextualized threat detection; custom knowledge sources for Elastic AI Assistant; and improved support for locally hosted large language models (LLMs).

By collecting, analyzing, and leveraging data from security events, security analytics empowers teams to proactively detect anomalies and pinpoint vulnerabilities to mitigate targeted attacks, insider threats, and advanced persistent threats (APTs).
