Autonomous cybersecurity vendor SentinelOne has announced the launch of a new threat hunting platform which aims to combat cyber threats in an automated and intuitive way. The platform combines neural networks and natural language processing, utilizing LLMs like GPT-4, to ingest, aggregate, and correlate data from various sources like endpoint, cloud service, and network logs.
Equipped with this data, the platform acts like an automated assistant, allowing security analysts to ask questions relating to their threat hunting objectives and triggering automated response actions. For instance, a user can ask the system in natural language to find potential successful phishing attempts involving PowerShell, or all potential Log4j exploit attempts, and receive a response summary as well as trigger automated actions if needed.
Tomer Weingarten, CEO of SentinelOne, said in an interview with VentureBeat, “We believe that with this system, you unlock so much productivity that in essence, every security analyst is now 10x the security analyst.”
The announcement of the new platform at the RSA Conference 2023 in San Francisco comes weeks after Microsoft launched its own GPT-4-powered AI security assistant, “Security Copilot” and less than two weeks after threat intelligence provider, Recorded Future released its own GPT-driven security solution, creating written threat reports on demand.
With the wider market estimated to grow from $11.3 billion in 2023 to $51.8 billion by 2028, it is becoming increasingly important for companies like SentinelOne to provide powerful security solutions that are automated and intuitive.
SentinelOne is currently hosting a conference, “Transform 2023” in San Francisco, where top executives will share their experiences and knowledge on integrating and optimizing AI investments for success. Attendees will also get the opportunity to gain insights on how to avoid pitfalls when implementing these advanced security solutions.
