A global cruise line operating across maritime and resort environments was struggling with inconsistent detections, alert overload, and limited visibility from its existing NDR platform. In this customer story, Jay Miller from Corelight walks through how the organization evaluated its network visibility strategy, identified long-standing gaps in detection coverage, and improved investigation workflows across a complex environment with intermittent connectivity at sea.

The emergence of quantum computing has introduced a definitive expiration date for classical encryption, fueling a "harvest now, decrypt later" strategy among sophisticated nation-state actors. In this episode, Vince Stoffer joins Richard Bejtlich to demystify Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and explain why organizations must move beyond a "set it and forget it" mentality regarding their encryption standards.

Richard Bejtlich sits down with Ali Islam to pull back the curtain on how a security research lab functions within a modern security company. Moving beyond the "ivory tower" of academia, Ali explains why researchers must be battle-hardened by real-world threat actor techniques to remain effective in the field. The conversation dives into Corelight’s unique commitment to the open source community through the direct funding of Zeek and Suricata developers, ensuring that community-driven tools can scale to meet massive enterprise traffic demands.

Richard Bejtlich sits down with Stan Kiefer, Corelight’s Senior Manager for Data Science, to discuss how AI serves as a vital "abstraction layer" and "knowledge multiplier" for security analysts. Stan explains that while AI can synthesize complex information, it remains untrustworthy without high-fidelity network data at its center to provide verifiable evidence. The episode explores the shift toward an "agentic ecosystem" and a tiered architecture where a central orchestrator manages specialized sub-agents to accelerate detection and investigation.
