Detecting SHA1-Hulud: the logs must flow

Sha1-Hulud has burrowed back into our lives, spreading rapidly and causing more destruction than ever. Named after the famous worm from the Dune franchise, this attack is also impacting global organizations. Since its first widescale spread on September 16, 2025, this worm has demonstrated its ability to propagate rapidly with high impact using the following techniques: This variant includes some new behavior, including.

MCP ROI in a New Era of AI Orchestrated Threats

Security leaders spent most of the past year testing AI driven security automation. Many discovered that the promise of fully autonomous SOC operations collided with the reality of hallucinations, opaque recommendations, and inconsistent outcomes. McKinsey research now shows that more than 80 percent of organizations have not realized meaningful results from gen AI programs.

Rehydrate archived logs in any SIEM or logging vendor with Observability Pipelines

Security and observability teams generate terabytes of log data every day—from firewalls, identity systems, and cloud infrastructure, in addition to application and access logs. To control SIEM costs and meet long-term retention requirements, many organizations archive a significant portion of this data in cost-optimized object storage such as Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage.

5 Signs You've Outgrown Your Open-Source SIEM

The evolution of your security stack is similar to the different phases of buying cars. In the beginning, you just need enough to transport a few items, maybe yourself and a few friends. The inexpensive two-door hatchback is perfect. However, as your family grows, whether with small humans or pets, you increasingly need more space and more capacity, leading to purchasing a four-door sedan or, even, a mini-van.

Ep 19: The atomic habits of cybersecurity professionals

In this Masters of Data episode, we welcome back Zoe Hawkins and Roland Palmer to discuss building better security practices through small, incremental improvements personally and professionally. We emphasize regularly auditing security policies to avoid unnecessary friction that forces workarounds, treating security as sociology rather than just technology. We cover practical approaches like habit-stacking, weekly business reviews, staying informed about threats through intentional news consumption, and developing cognitive humility with security prompts.

How to Use Data Lakes to Reduce SIEM Costs and Strengthen Investigations

Most teams think of data lakes as cold storage. A long-term archive. A place to keep logs “just in case” while budgets tighten and ingest volumes rise. Functional, sure. But limited. The traditional data lake keeps everything, helps occasionally, and rarely fits the way analysts work. Graylog approaches the data lake differently. In Graylog 7.0, the data lake is not a warehouse. It is a pressure release valve for teams overwhelmed by storage cost, investigation delays, and cloud data sprawl.

You can't secure what you can't see: Why AgentCore logs matter

AI agents are finally moving past cute demos and into actual production workflows. With AWS AgentCore, teams can build agents that write tickets, call APIs, deploy infrastructure, invoke external tools, and make changes faster than any human operator ever could. That’s powerful, but it also introduces a brand-new operational and security surface. And here’s the uncomfortable truth: most organizations have no idea what their agents are actually doing. Agentic AI isn’t magic.

Why your security analytics needs proactive threat hunting

Even the mightiest and most prestigious companies and enterprises are not exempt from the sophisticated threats posed by cyber attackers. Your security team needs robust security measures for network security, endpoint security, threat detection, anomaly detection, data protection, security monitoring, application security and information security.

Log everything from anywhere: Centralizing log collection with Log360

In today's complex IT environments, comprehensive log collection is crucial for effective auditing and security monitoring. Without this, endpoints, especially those that are VPN-joined, stay out of your reach while auditing. This was the bottleneck faced by our Log360 customer who recently availed OnboardPro, ManageEngine's professional services. They knew Log360 was capable of collecting logs from all their network devices—but what about the endpoints that were connected remotely via VPN?

Legacy vs. Cloud-native SIEM: Weighing the Pros and Cons

Choosing the right security information and event management (SIEM) solution is one of the most critical decisions you’ll make for your security program. As you evaluate your options, the central question is whether to stick with a traditional, on-premises SIEM or embrace a modern, cloud-native platform. This blog provides a direct comparison of the pros and cons of each, helping you make the best strategic decision for your organization’s needs.

Six Advanced Cloud-Native SIEM Use Cases

You already know that a security information and event management (SIEM) offers crucial benefits like scalability and reduced management overhead. But how do those platform advantages translate into stopping sophisticated threats? The answer lies in moving beyond simple log collection to leveraging powerful, behavior-based analytics.

Control logging costs on any SIEM or data lake using Packs with Observability Pipelines

Rising log volumes are making it harder than ever for security and SRE teams to balance visibility with cost. Every network, CDN, and security layer generates continuous streams of telemetry, but deciding what to parse, retain, or drop often requires manual configuration, specialized knowledge, and extensive tuning.

Embracing the Future of Security With Cloud-Native SIEM

As technology and cyberthreats continue to evolve, businesses must adapt their IT infrastructure and security strategies to stay ahead of the curve. At the heart of this evolution is security information and event management (SIEM). However, if you’re still relying on a traditional SIEM, you’re likely struggling to keep up.

Finding the Perfect Fit: Hosting Models for Cloud-Native SIEM Solutions

As you continue to embrace cloud-native security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, it’s important to understand the various hosting models available and select the one that best fits your organization’s unique needs. We’ll explore the pros and cons of different hosting models, including public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud hosting. Your choice of hosting model plays an essential role in how your cloud-native SIEM solution is deployed, managed, and maintained.

Why your security needs a modern SIEM solution

Not investing in a Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) solution means you’re missing out on significant business benefits. A SIEM platform provides real-time detection and response to security incidents, helping you reduce the risk of costly compliance violations. Combine that with SIEM use cases such as consolidating and streamlining reporting, and your security team saves time and operational costs.

It's time for the defense and intelligence community to upgrade endpoint security

For more than 20 years, the US Intelligence Community (IC) and Department of Defense (DoD) have relied on a legacy Host Based Security System (HBSS) to provide basic endpoint security on critical networks. This solution has generally served its purpose by checking the box for endpoint security. However, most agencies still lack a truly integrated cross-operating system and cross-domain solution for endpoint detection and response (EDR).

From Data Burden to Strategic Advantage: Rethinking SIEM Economics for the Modern SOC

Your security operations are running in full throttle. Every log, alert, and event is fuel for defense. But as enterprises scale across endpoints, cloud, and SaaS, data has become both an enabler and an expense. The explosion of telemetry has turned visibility into an economic dilemma. Across the industry, CISOs are confronting a simple truth: the challenge isn’t how much data you can collect; it’s how intelligently you can use it to stay both Breach Ready and Board Ready.

The Missing Memory in Your Security Stack: How Attackers Exploit Stateless Systems

Security teams are facing a daunting challenge: today’s cyberattacks are slower, quieter, and more difficult to spot than ever before. Adversaries, from nation-state actors to malicious insiders, have mastered the art of flying under the radar. They stretch their activities over days, weeks, or even months, using legitimate credentials and tools to disguise their actions as normal business operations. The uncomfortable truth is that most SIEM and XDR platforms are stateless.

How the Falcon Platform Delivers Fast, CISO-Ready Executive Reports

Most exposure reporting is still slow, error-prone, and disconnected from reality. Analysts spend hours collecting and formatting data using different tools that produce conflicting priorities. Reports are bloated with raw CVE lists that lack context and rarely connect to business impact. They are often delayed, arriving after the adversaries have moved. While teams struggle with outdated reports, adversaries are seeking new ways to gain initial access.
