We are extremely excited to introduce a new addition to the Splunk unified security operations experience: Splunk Attack Analyzer (formerly Twinwave), which automates threat analysis of suspected malware and credential phishing threats by identifying and extracting associated forensics to provide accurate and timely detections. SOC analysts continue to struggle to work across many security tools to help them understand and address threats targeting the organization.

We’re all juggling more complexity than ever before. Chances are you’re being pulled in multiple directions, working across teams and dealing with more tools than you’d like to. We know you want to keep everything running smoothly and don’t want to focus your time on setting things up, especially when you’re probably dealing with other fires.

Networks are the data highways upon which you build your digital transformation infrastructure. Like interstate highways transmit goods, networks transmit data. Every connected user and device is a network digital on-ramp. When malicious actors gain unauthorized access to networks, organizations must detect and contain them as quickly as possible, requiring security analysts to embark on a digital high-speed chase.

When I started Resurface, my core thesis was that web and API security brought unique requirements requiring purpose-built data systems. Using Splunk at scale for API monitoring was/is prohibitively expensive. Using Hadoop or Kafka requires a nerd army to run at any scale. Few data platforms include a mature web or API monitoring model, so this has to be custom-overlaid at significant expense.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform our industry. At Splunk, we see it as a catalyst for driving digital resilience — a way to accelerate human decision making in service of incident detection, investigation and response.

This year, Amazon Web Services (AWS), a leading cloud services provider, announced a comprehensive security solution called Amazon Security Lake. In this blog post, we will explore what Amazon Security Lake is, how it works, the benefits for organizations, and partners you can leverage alongside it to enhance security analytics and quickly respond to security events.

Hi there, As organizations strive to enhance the cyber resilience of their operations, the scope of SOC teams is expanding beyond traditional enterprise IT.

As SOCs continue to grow and mature, it's vital that they establish effective and repeatable programs in proactive defense. This also means that threat hunting needs to become a critical function. Numerous advanced and sophisticated threats are able to get past more traditional cybersecurity defenses and SOCs need skilled Threat Hunters who are able to search, log, monitor, and remediate threats before they create a serious problem.

In today's data-driven world, businesses must navigate the complexities of data management while ensuring compliance with an ever-growing array of laws and regulations. Two concepts that often arise in this context are data sovereignty vs data residency. While related, these terms refer to distinct aspects of data management. Understanding their differences is crucial for businesses to make informed decisions on where to store their data and how to remain compliant with data protection regulations.
