Smart Logging Without the Price Trap

How much value are you really getting from your logs, and what are you giving up to stay on budget? In this episode of Logs and Lattes, host Palmer Wallace sits down with Seth Goldhammer, VP of Product Management at Graylog, for a candid conversation about the hidden cost of traditional SIEM pricing. Seth explains how ingest-based and resource-heavy licensing models pressure security teams into tough tradeoffs, such as dropping logs, tuning down detections, or limiting retention just to avoid budget overages.

Ten modern SIEM use cases at cloud scale

The role of SIEM has never gone away. From the beginning, it’s been the backbone of security operations: the system where logs converge, alerts are analyzed, and incidents are investigated. What’s changed is our ability to use it correctly. Legacy, traditional SIEM tools forced trade-offs. Teams filtered data at ingest, dropped logs to control costs, or siloed analytics into disconnected point tools. The result was a SIEM that felt heavy, reactive, and underwhelming.

Elastic Security Explained: Transparency, AI, and the Future of Threat Hunting

Elastic’s James Spiteri joins John Hammond to dive deep into the evolution of Elastic Security, from the ELK stack’s early days to today’s full-fledged, unified SIEM, XDR, and cloud security solution powered by agentic AI and automation. They discuss free tools, open detections, and how Elastic is making cybersecurity more accessible and collaborative for everyone.

Security Pipelines Are Broken. Here's How to Fix Them

There’s a quiet failure at the heart of many security programs. It’s not a lack of data. It’s too much of the wrong data. Telemetry pipelines built for volume, not visibility, now flood teams with noise instead of insight. The result? More alerts. Slower response. Overworked analysts are stuck maintaining ingestion rules instead of catching real threats.

From raw data to real-time defense: A conversation with John Hammond

Explore how Elastic Security's unified platform with SIEM and XDR protections transforms SOC workflows through AI-powered analytics and consolidated security operations. Elastic Security Director of Product Management James Spiteri recently joined cybersecurity researcher, educator, and content creator John Hammond for an in-depth technical demonstration. John spends his days analyzing malware, breaking down attacker techniques, and making hackers earn their access.

From Fragmented Intel to Unified Response

Threat intelligence holds incredible promise—but only if it translates into timely, decisive action. Too often, security teams chase disconnected data across fragmented tools, incompatible formats, and siloed workflows. The result? Slower response times, missed threats, and exhausted SOC analysts. The answer is clear: unified intelligence. That’s the power of the Securonix Unified Defense SIEM and ThreatQ integration—streamlined, contextualized, and built for action.

OCSF for Security Hub: Sumo Logic and AWS speaking the same language

In technology, the proof of a lasting relationship is in the infrastructure — the pipelines, security services, and log plumbing have to work seamlessly together long before anyone sees the outcome. That’s precisely what Sumo Logic and AWS have built. Aligned around open standards like OCSF (Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework), integrated with services like Security Hub and GuardDuty, and connected through shared telemetry, it makes cloud security and observability possible at scale.

The Value of a Robust Vulnerability Management Program

Back before live security video feeds in homes, people would walk around at night checking to make sure they locked every window and door. They took these precautions because they knew that a single open lock gave burglars an opportunity to steal from them. For organizations, vulnerability management programs are a way to lock the doors against cybercriminals.
