What Singapore's CCoP 2.0 Requires of Critical Infrastructure Owners

Picture Singapore’s largest telecommunications network. It carries the financial transactions, emergency communications, and government data of a city-state of nearly six million people. Now picture that infrastructure silently infiltrated for months by a state-linked espionage group, undetected until the telcos’ own security teams found it.

Put agentic AI to work: Real-world defense against threats

Attackers are using AI to compress timelines from hours to minutes. Most SOCs, and most security platforms, weren’t built for that speed. Join Elastic Security product and research experts for a look at how modern security teams can detect, investigate, and respond faster using agentic AI. You’ll learn how to: You’ll leave better equipped to reduce investigation time, keep analysts focused on decision-making, and modernize security operations for machine-speed threats without removing humans from the loop.

Top SIEM Tools for Hybrid Environments in 2026

Hybrid infrastructure has expanded faster than most Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools can keep up with: on-premises AD, cloud workloads, and SaaS each produce telemetry at different quality levels, while identity event normalization and compliance evidence output are the layers that most SIEM deployments address last. The platforms that close those gaps from the initial deployment architecture produce cleaner signals and audit-ready evidence without additional tooling.

AI across the security lifecycle

For nearly a decade, the security industry has used machine learning to solve detection. By feeding it enough logs and determining abnormal behaviors, it found the threats that rules-based systems miss. This delivered sharper anomaly detection, fewer false positives, and UEBA is now essential. In fact, threat detection and analytics account for close to 44% of total SIEM spend, the single largest use case by far. Using machine learning for detection was only the start.

Why Insider Threats Don't Trigger Alerts

Insider threats often don’t trigger alerts because the activity relies on valid credentials, approved tools, and authorized workflows. When viewed as individual events, this behavior looks normal and stays below traditional rule thresholds. Risk accumulates across otherwise valid actions without producing a signal that meets alert thresholds.

Incident Response Automation: A CISO's Guide for 2026

Your SOC probably looks busy on paper and brittle in practice. Alerts land from email, endpoints, cloud workloads, identity providers, firewalls, and ticketing systems. Analysts swivel between consoles, copy indicators into chat, open cases by hand, and race to decide which events deserve containment and which ones are just noise. That model doesn't break because people are careless. It breaks because the volume, speed, and interdependence of modern environments outgrew manual response a long time ago.

FERC and NERC: Cyber Security Monitoring for The Energy Sector

As cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure continue to evolve, the energy sector remains a prime target for malicious actors. Protecting the electric grid requires a strong regulatory framework and robust cybersecurity monitoring practices. In the United States, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) play key roles in safeguarding the power system against cyber risks.

Making Waves: Elastic named a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave: Extended Detection And Response Platforms, Q2 2026

Elastic has been named a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave: Extended Detection And Response Platforms, Q2 2026 report. The report recognized our SIEM-replacement capabilities, open data architecture, AI innovation, and endpoint protection. Here's what Forrester found and why we believe it reflects what we've been building.

Real Time Threat Detection

Weekly cyberattacks now average 1,968 per week, up 18% year over year and 70% since 2023, while security teams still take an average of 277 days to identify and contain a breach, according to SentinelOne's cybersecurity statistics roundup. That combination changes the meaning of “real time” in security. It no longer means a dashboard that updates quickly. It means building detection and response so attackers don't get months of freedom between first access and containment.
