Save your spot
AI is everywhere in security right now, but can it actually help you catch the bad guys faster? And more importantly, can you trust what it tells you?
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how Cribl’s own security team puts Cribl Search’s AI Investigator to work hunting threats, chasing down suspicious activity, and getting to the bottom of incidents. We’ll share real-world lessons, practical query and prompt tips, and a live demo that shows the Investigator in action - from gathering evidence to connecting the dots, with humans still in the driver’s seat.
We’ll also dig into what makes an AI investigator worth trusting. How accurate is it? How many false alarms does it raise? How fast and expensive is it to run? And how do you know which models are up to the job? That’s where Sec-IT Bench and AI benchmarking come in. Learn how to evaluate model performance, understand the trade-offs, and figure out what works best for your security workflows.
You’ll learn how to:
Apply practical AI-assisted threat hunting and investigation workflows, including effective query and prompt strategies.
See how Cribl’s security team applies AI Investigator to real-world threat hunting.
Understand where AI can speed up investigations, and where human expertise and oversight remain essential.
Use benchmarking and research to make more informed decisions about AI in the SOC.
Walk away with practical tips for putting AI to work in your SOC, a clearer picture of what AI can (and can’t) do, and new ways to hunt threats and investigate with confidence.
