Is it time to migrate off that old SIEM? @anton_chuvakin and @daveherrald discuss this age old question in the area of the cloud and AI. bit.ly/4btoUB1 #Chronicle #SIEM #AI
This week’s episode of the @CloudSecPodcast is all about detection engineering. Listen to guests @stonerpsu and @daveherrald discuss what would make clients trust vendor detection content, is tuning detections a bad word in 2023, and more! Listen here: cloud.withgoogle.com/cloudsecurity/…

2023 is the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Internet We are celebrating with @vgcerf as one of the fathers of the Internet. Use #Vinternet to send him your own special shout-out too!
