Joining Rich Stroffolino, producer of CISO Series for this discussion will be:

In preparation for our discussion, think about the following:

  • What percentage of your log data actually gets analyzed versus simply stored? 
  • What are the real cost barriers preventing you from aggregating all your log data in one place? Are they actually storage costs, or are they vendor lock-in and consumption pricing models?
  • What corporate culture barriers prevent security and IT operations from sharing log infrastructure? Who benefits from keeping these silos intact?
  • If storage became effectively free, which log analysis use cases would you pursue that seem too expensive today?
  • Why do we accept that extracting business intelligence from logs should be prohibitively expensive when the raw data is already being collected?
  • What happens when the same log data needs to serve security investigations, application troubleshooting, business analytics, and compliance reporting? 
  • If agentic capabilities can work across all log types, why are we still thinking in terms of “security logs” versus “IT logs” versus “business logs”?
  • What would need to change in your organization to treat logs as a unified strategic asset rather than individual team data sources?

It all starts at 1 PM Eastern/10 AM Pacific. At the end of the hour [2 PM Eastern/11 AM Pacific] we’ll switch gears to our meetup where everyone will get a chance to chat face to face.

Huge thanks to our sponsor, Strike48
