Most folks build their SIEM the same way they load a junk drawer: by shoving in whatever they already have—Active Directory, firewalls, and a whole lot of “eh, why not.” But at Graylog, we think you deserve better than a glorified log toilet. In this talk, we’ll flip the script: start with the problems you’re actually trying to solve, then figure out what you need to know, then what data supports that. And with Graylog’s Intelligent Data Routing, you can now act on that plan—sending high-value data to hot storage and archiving the rest to standby storage for when (and if) it’s needed. Build your SIEM like it has a brain—and a budget.

Many organisations are pushing AI adoption at full speed while treating security as something to patch in later. The result is a market full of rapidly deployed models, third party tools and jailbreakable systems where capability gets rewarded first and control gets ignored until damage appears.

Prompt injection works because language models struggle to tell the difference between trusted instructions and untrusted user content. Unlike SQL injection or cross site scripting, there is no clean deterministic defence, which leaves code, libraries and AI workflows open to manipulation at multiple points.
