Ep 39: This is your first ransomware attack, not ours

Apr 21, 2026 By Sumo Logic, Inc. In Sumo Logic
On this episode of Masters of Data, we sat down with Steven Manley, CTO of Druva, to get the unfiltered truth about ransomware: it's not a matter of if you'll be breached, but when, and bad actors are now launching hundreds of attacks at a surprisingly low cost. We dig into why attackers lurk undetected for 200-plus days, how AI is being weaponized for everything from eerily convincing voice phishing to secretly training your own AI systems against you, and why your most protected assets are rarely what gets hit first.

92% of security leaders say their SIEM is effective. 51% say it's exceptional. What's living in that gap?

Apr 16, 2026 By Michelle Beastall In Sumo Logic
If you hear that a product is 92% effective, you’d assume it’s operating as intended. It seems like a success story. But dig a little deeper, and the picture changes; only 51% say that their security information and event management (SIEM) is very effective. What does it mean when a majority of security relies on a tool that works, but doesn’t work well enough? Not broken, not exceptional. It’s somewhere in between.

Ep 38: Wheels up, systems down: cybersecurity at cruising altitude

Apr 14, 2026 By Sumo Logic, Inc. In Sumo Logic
In this episode of Masters of Data, we buckle up and explore the staggering technological complexity behind the airline industry, from managing IoT devices across global fleets to navigating the data chaos of mergers and acquisitions. We dig into the delicate balance airlines strike between aging legacy systems and risky upgrades, and why getting that wrong isn't just costly but potentially catastrophic. We also look at how forward-thinking airlines are turning operational logs into real business wins, all while safeguarding the mountains of sensitive passenger data they collect every day.

Your AI SOC still needs a SIEM. Here's why that won't change.

Apr 9, 2026 By Michelle Beastall In Sumo Logic
Everyone is building sophisticated intelligence layers with improved models and smarter agents to automate threat detection, investigation, and response. It’s what is needed in order to mature into an AI SOC. However, the organizations seeing the most value from AI in their SOC are not focusing solely on the intelligence layer. They’re focusing on the data foundation first.

The coefficient of security friction is slowing teams down. How can you fix it?

Apr 2, 2026 By Christopher Beier In Sumo Logic
Like the sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our SOC lives…. An alert surfaces, and while it doesn’t immediately signal a critical incident, it carries just enough ambiguity to require attention. An analyst opens the investigation, begins pulling in context, reviews authentication activity, pivots into endpoint data, and checks for any corresponding changes in the cloud environment.

The AI SOC explained: Intelligent security for modern threats

Mar 26, 2026 By Michelle Beastall In Sumo Logic
The SOC was originally designed for a threat landscape that no longer exists. Today, the sheer number and speed of modern threats make it tough for even the best analysts to keep up. Manually sorting through huge amounts of data, dealing with alert fatigue, and relying on fixed rules make it harder to understand the full story behind each threat. The AI SOC addresses this problem, but not in the way most vendors describe. It’s not just a simple product or feature.

Ep 35: RSAC FOMO? Dojo AI Demo

Mar 24, 2026 By Sumo Logic, Inc. In Sumo Logic
As we gear up for RSA Conference, we give viewers a sneak peek at Sumo Logic's SOC analyst agent, which turns a 45-minute analyst investigation into a five-minute AI-powered sprint. We walk through live demos showing how the agent automatically generates queries, maps threats to MITRE ATT&CK, and hands you recommended remediation actions all without making you switch tabs or tools. We also show off MCP integration that lets teams collaborate on active investigations right from Slack, because no one should be chained to their war room when there's dinner to be had.
