It's not about the #logs. Do you try to ingest all #security logs? There's a better way.

Start with the threats. What are the biggest threats you face? How would those threats materialize into #risk?

Once you understand this, go looking for the logs. Which log sources contain IOCs for these threats? They may not be so-called security logs.

Tune aggressively. Stay focused. Continue to threat model.

Also, it's about the #logs.

#Tesla cars are advanced, proprietary computers with a car chassis. Their main app is the car.

But in order to use this app, you have to effectively agree to ubiquitous #surveillance. You can theoretically use it without it, but may compromise your safety. The computer, and by extension Tesla, knows where you are at all times.

What does the future hold when we have to trade #privacy for a cleaner, cooler world to live in?

I am uncomfortable with this trade-off.

How would you explain the problem of running multiple different #SIEM solutions to executives? Give me some good analogies they can understand.

Born in 1914, Hedy Lamarr was a famous American actress who pioneered the technology that would lead to WiFi, GPS, cell phones & Bluetooth communication.

Lamarr was brilliant. Among many fascinating inventions, she developed a new communication system with composer George Antheil that used “frequency hopping” among radio waves.

Once called the “most beautiful woman in the world," Lamarr is now remembered as "the mother of Wi-Fi."
