Detecting rare and unusual processes with Elastic machine learning

In SecOps, knowing which host processes are normally executed and which are rarely seen helps cut through the noise to quickly locate potential problems or security threats. By focusing attention on rare anomalies, security teams can be more efficient when trying to detect or hunt for potential threats. Finding a process that doesn’t often run on a server can sometimes indicate innocuous activity or could be an indication of something more alarming.

AWS Machine Learning Tools (2021 edition)

When you want to stay ahead and on top of things in a fast-moving industry, machine learning (ML) is surely one of the trending solutions. Today, innovative companies already have leading Machine Learning tools well-integrated into their processes. In comparison, your start could seem dreadfully slow. Or maybe you just don’t have the time or resources to invest in running your own Machine Learning training infrastructure.

Detecting threats in AWS Cloudtrail logs using machine learning

Cloud API logs are a significant blind spot for many organizations and often factor into large-scale, publicly announced data breaches. They pose several challenges to security teams: For all of these reasons, cloud API logs are resistant to conventional threat detection and hunting techniques.

The Road to Zero Touch Goes Through Machine Learning

The telecom industry is in the midst of a massive shift to new service offerings enabled by 5G and edge computing technologies. With this digital transformation, networks and network services are becoming increasingly complex: RAN, Core and Transport are only a few of the network’s many layers and integrated components. Today’s telecom engineers are expected to handle, manage, optimize, monitor and troubleshoot multi-technology and multi-vendor networks.

Using Elastic machine learning rare analysis to hunt for the unusual

It is incredibly useful to be able to identify the most unusual data in your Elasticsearch indices. However, it can be incredibly difficult to manually find unusual content if you are collecting large volumes of data. Fortunately, Elastic machine learning can be used to easily build a model of your data and apply anomaly detection algorithms to detect what is rare/unusual in the data. And with machine learning, the larger the dataset, the better.
