How to Speed Up Incident Response With Guided Remediation

Most teams picture incident response as a linear sprint from alert to resolution. A notification appears, an analyst pivots across screens, a decision gets made, and the workflow moves on. It works, but it is mechanical, tiring, and fragile. Graylog 7.0 aims for something more impactful. Guided remediation gives analysts clarity during the moments when pressure rises and context usually scatters. It takes raw detection data and turns it into a clear path forward. No theatrics.

Elasticsearch: The context engine for grounding and orchestration in Microsoft Azure AI Foundry Agent Service

The rise of large language models (LLMs) and agentic applications promises to transform enterprise workflows. Yet, the core challenge remains: How do we ensure these powerful agents generate accurate, relevant, and trustworthy responses based on proprietary enterprise data rather than relying solely on their generic training knowledge? The answer lies in grounding — connecting the LLM to verified, trusted, and up-to-date information.

What Is a Data Pipeline

In today’s tech world, IT and security technologies are the functional equivalent of Pokemon. To gain the insights you need, you “gotta catch ‘em all” by ingesting, correlating, and analyzing as much security data as possible. Data pipelines organize chaotic information flows into structured streams, ensuring that data is reliable, processed, and ready for use.

MachineGPT: Speaking the Language of Machines to Shape the Future of AI

At.conf25, we took a bold step forward—introducing the concept of MachineGPT, which brings the power of generative AI to one of the most overlooked resources: machine data. MachineGPT speaks the language of machines. Just like ChatGPT learned the grammar of words and sentences to understand questions and respond in human language, MachineGPT can learn the hidden “grammar” of how systems behave through machine data.
