PromptLock ransomware represents a chilling evolution: AI that makes real-time decisions about your data. Unlike traditional ransomware that blindly encrypts everything, this malware uses a locally-hosted LLM to analyze file contents and decide whether to exfiltrate or encrypt based on what it finds. It's essentially agentic AI making autonomous threat decisions.

We dove into AI in the SOC with Matt Bromiley from Prophet Security! Matt broke down how AI is transforming (and should be transforming) SOC workflows. Whether you're already using AI tools or wondering where to start, this is the conversation you don't want to miss.

LimaCharlie Query Language (LCQL) enables security teams to search across their entire multi-platform fleet, from Windows Event Logs to Linux package installations to macOS volume mounts. Our MCP server allows users to generate LCQL queries from plain-text language commands. Eric Capuano, founder of Digital Defense Institute, demoed this during our webinar: "I want an LCQL query that'll go and find processes in the last twenty four hours that exhibit signs of x. I can just give it that instruction... that MCP tool will work it out and give Claude the ideal LCQL query to run.".

Eric Capuano, founder of Digital Defense Institute, demoed permission controls using LimaCharlie's MCP server. When Claude recommended isolating compromised systems, Eric explained: "It's very aggressively recommending it's time to isolate these systems, but it is not authorized to fire off the isolate network command.".

Our recent webinar showed how our MCP server enables AI to apply the same technical analysis that expert threat hunters use by providing structured API access to security data and tools. In the demo, Claude identified WinINet.dll loaded in a suspicious process - a discovery that Eric Capuano, founder of Digital Defense Institute, called "a pretty smart move." This moment highlighted how AI can move beyond basic data collection to understand investigative context and connect technical findings to broader threat hypotheses.
