At Black Hat USA 2024, we continued to focus on our commitment to helping companies modernize their IT and security data strategies and avoid vendor lock-in through several strategic partnership announcements. We are an integrations company at heart, and believe that interoperability and our vendor-agnostic approach empowers customers to choose best-of-breed solutions. By partnering with industry leaders like Anomali, Securonix, Anvilogic, and Vijilan Security, we’re enhancing cybersecurity capabilities, optimizing data management, and delivering cost-effective, scalable solutions to tackle the complexities of today’s cyber threats and data growth concerns.

Jackie McGuire Discusses the Need for Data Strategy Modernization

During Black Hat, Cribl’s Senior Security Strategist Jackie McGuire joined theCube and talked about our Swiss Army Knife approach to data, emphasizing that our products help customers develop a data maturity model that allows them to assess their current state and plan for future improvements as their data is compounding at 28% growth per year.

“We’ve moved more towards storage and discovery because that’s the next problem that we see,” she said. “We launched Cribl Lake, which is a managed lake product that literally within a minute you can spin up a lake without having to put a ticket into IT. All of the identity and access management pushes down from Cribl Cloud. So, it removes a huge hurdle to establishing object storage.”
