Your employee successfully authenticates. MFA works. The account is valid. The permissions are legitimate. There’s just one problem: The person using the identity may be an attacker. That scenario gets to the heart of one of the biggest changes happening in enterprise security. For years, organizations have invested heavily in Identity and Access Management (IAM) […]

Every security team wants better outcomes. Faster detection. Faster triage. Faster investigation. Faster response.But many teams are slowed down by a less visible problem: operational friction. A customer has a data source that is not supported yet. A parser needs to be built. A log format is messy. A hunting playbook works in one environment

Every security leader has heard the promise by now: AI will transform security operations. It will reduce alert fatigue. It will accelerate investigations. It will make analysts more productive. It will help teams do more with less. The promise is real, but there is a catch. AI does not improve security outcomes simply because a

From AI Experiments to Autonomous Operations – Christophe Briguet, Sr. Director of Product Management – AI & Security Analytics, Stellar Cyber San Jose, Calif. – Apr. 28, 2026 Something shifted in early 2026. Not gradually — more like flipping a switch. For years, we talked about AI in the SOC the way we talked about
Just after the turn of the century, IBM introduced the term, ‘autonomic IT.” At the time, IBM’s perspective was that IT applications, networks, and systems had become too complex for humans to manage, monitor, or secure. IBM presented its autonomic IT concept, with a vision of IT systems that could manage themselves with advanced capabilities

Network Detection and Response (NDR) has been the Rodney Dangerfield of security tools over the past few years – “it don’t get no respect.” Conceivably, this state of disrepute came from all the marketing money thrown at Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and eXtended Detection and Response (XDR). It could also be related to growth

The attacker’s blind spot just disappeared Today’s attackers largely treat software as a black box. Some study open-source software (OSS) to tailor their techniques, but doing this at scale has always been practically impossible which created a natural ceiling on adversarial precision. Mythos removes that ceiling entirely. Because frontier LLMs are trained on virtually all
Every vendor says their SOC platform has AI agents. Most of them are running glorified chatbots on top of the same alert queues your analysts are already drowning in.

Bullish on Autonomous SOC. Realist about what gets us there. There’s been plenty of talk lately about the Autonomous SOC — a future where machines don’t just alert but correlate, triage, investigate, and respond. It sounds fantastic, especially if you’ve ever worked the night shift buried in alerts. But here’s the truth: you can’t automate
In today’s hybrid world, identity is the new perimeter-and attackers know it. As traditional EDR and SIEM tools struggle to keep up, identity-focused attacks are rising fast. In fact, 70% of breaches now start with stolen credentials, according to Verizon’s 2024 and 2025 DBIR reports. This calls for a smarter approach to identity security-one that
In today’s cybersecurity arms race, visibility is everything—but context is king. Network Detection and Response (NDR) has long been one of the most effective ways to detect lateral movement, ransomware behaviors, and post-compromise activity using deep packet inspection and behavioral analysis. But as threat actors become more evasive and distributed, relying solely on NDR as a
Live Network Traffic is the Missing Link: AI Can’t Detect What It Can’t See AI is dominating cybersecurity conversations—and MSSPs are rushing to capitalize. Whether through SIEM platforms with built-in ML, or EDRs with AI-assisted investigations, the promise is clear: faster detection, smarter triage, and better outcomes. But here’s the hard truth—AI alone won’t save

Today’s complex cyberthreat landscape poses both enterprises and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) multiple challenges. To combat evolved threats across diverse IT & Security environments, cybersecurity professionals develop an array of tools and data sources to monitor their specific threat landscape. However, the tool array presents its own difficulties, as there are gaps in visibility,

Six years ago, we founded DTonomy, a security automation company. As security software engineers and data scientists who had worked at the forefront of security operations — from building large-scale AI-based EDR systems to managing daily security operations — we were acutely aware of the challenges security teams face. Triaging security alerts during national holidays,

Government security operations (SecOp) teams face unique challenges as they grapple with relentless attacks in an environment that can shift unexpectedly. The pressure intensifies in the government, and budgets are often constrained. This combination of factors creates a perfect storm of stress and uncertainty. SecOps leaders must find ways to ensure their teams can protect

In a recent conversation with a major educational institution’s CIO, the following circumstance arises: a university administrator is hiring for a position; of over 300 resumes that he receives, 95% of them look so similar that they could have come from the same person. And in a way, they did. With the proliferation of AI-powered
