Episode 19 - The Cap on Inference: Proving How Network Data Quality Drives AI Security ROI
In this episode, host Richard Bejtlich sits down with Corelight Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer Greg Bell to unpack groundbreaking research that quantifies exactly how data quality impacts AI-driven security automation. Moving past qualitative industry hype, Greg shares hard evidence from an empirical experiment pitting leading AI agents against real-world Capture the Flag (CTF) challenges and incident response report writing. The findings reveal a dramatic truth: basic firewall and flow logs place a hard cap on inference, throttling an LLM's capacity for deep insight.
