As one of the largest housing associations in the UK, Southern Housing was concerned about being targeted due to a sharp increase in cyberattacks on its industry. The organization also needed to broaden its defenses in response to the shift to remote and hybrid working.

I recently had the opportunity to speak with three CrowdStrike customers who shared their stories on why they consolidated on the CrowdStrike Falcon® XDR platform and the benefits of CrowdStrike’s tech integrations with partners like Okta and Zscaler. The 30-minute virtual panel, “Customer Best Practices for Security Consolidation Success,” is brimming with helpful information for security professionals. Why is this topic top-of-mind for so many?

Here at AT&T Cybersecurity, we know that the technology powering our managed detection and response services is solid—and we’ve got documentation to prove it. But we also know you’ve probably read your share of marketing materials making claims with nothing to back them up, so when we get the opportunity to share third-party metrics that support what we’ve been saying, we jump on it.

More than just introducing XDR today, Cato announced the first XDR solution to be built on a SASE platform. Tapping the power of the platform dramatically improves XDR’s quality of insight and the ease of incident response, leading to faster incident remediation. “The Cato platform gives us peace of mind,” says Shayne Green, an early adopter of Cato XDR and Head of security operations at CloudFactory.

Generative AI (à la OpenAI’s GPT and the likes) is a powerful tool for summarizing information, transformations of text, transformation of code, all while doing so using its highly specialized ability to “speak” in a natural human language. While working with GPT APIs on several engineering projects an interesting idea came up in brainstorming, how well would it work when asked to describe information provided in raw JSON into natural language?

At Cato our number one goal has always been to simplify networking and security, we even wrote it on a cake once so it must be true: Figure 1 – A birthday cake Applying this principle to our XDR offering, we aimed at reducing the complexity of analyzing security and network incidents, using a data-driven approach that is based on the vast amounts of data we see across our global network and collect into our data lake.

Security analysts continue to face an ever-evolving threat landscape, and their traditional approaches are proving to be quite limited. They continue to be overrun with security alerts, and their SIEMs often fail to properly correlate all relevant data, leaving them more exposed to cyber threats. These analysts require a more effective method to understand threats faster and reduce security risks in their environment.
