Defending at Machine Speed: Redefining Security Operations

Modern adversaries are not operating at human speed anymore - they are operating at machine speed.

From security leaders, especially in highly regulated environments, the question is no longer whether AI-driven threats are emerging. It's whether your security operations were ever designed to keep up with them. 

Join Elastic and AWS for an exclusive executive evening at the iconic Skylark in New York City, where skyline views set the backdrop for a focused discussion on the future of security operations.

This is no a product session. It is a strategic conversation about what it truly takes to defend modern enterprises in an AI-driven threat landscape.

Why This Matters Now

Security operations have reached an inflection point.

Despite significant investment in tools and platforms, many Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are still constrained by architectures that cannot match the speed of today's threats.

The result is a growing gap between attacker velocity and defender capability. 

This event will explore how leading organizations are closing that gap - by rethinking data, architecture and the operating model of the SOC itself.

What We'll Discuss

1.Operating the SOC at Machine Speed 

Why legacy SOC models are no longer sufficient - and what it takes to build security operations that can respond at the speed of AI-powered threats. 

2. The Hidden Cost of "Tool Sprawl"

Security stacks are increasingly weighed down by complexity:

• Per-device licensing models that leave visibility gaps
• Fragmented SOAR platforms with brittle integrations
• Proprietary AI systems that obscure decision logic

These are not just inefficiencies - they are operational liabilities.

3. Data as the Foundation for AI-Driven Security

AI effectiveness is determined by data accessibility.

Fragmented, delayed, or siloed data limits security outcomes before AI is even applied. We'll explore how unified data architectures enable real-time detection, response and intelligence at scale.

4. Turning the Cloud into Security Advantage

Explore how the integration between Elastic and Amazon Web Services enables:

• Generative AI-powered security workflows
• Hybrid search across security telemetry
• Scalable, cloud-native threat detection and response

5. The Agentic SOC in Practice 

What does an agent-drive SOC actually look like in reality?

We'll examine how autonomous agents can manage the full lifecycle - from ingestion to detection, investigation and response -  while human analysts focus on judgement, validation and decision-making.

This shift enables:

• Faster incident response
• Reduced analyst fatigue
• Improved consistency in detection and triage
• Scalable, intelligent security operations
