How AI can fix cybersecurity compliance: From dashboards to continuous execution - Help Net Security

Regulators, customers, and cyber insurers are right to expect organizations to implement hundreds of technical and administrative controls, monitor their environments, respond to incidents, and prove that all of it works.

DKCISSP REPORT

Threat actors are exploiting IT, IoMT, OT and IoT devices across healthcare delivery organizations (HDOs) to deploy ransomware , demand payments and monetize stolen patient data, according to Forescout’s Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) in Healthcare: From Data Risk to Migration Readiness report.

This provides teams with the assurances needed to move confidently.” Gremlin Foresight AI is built on top of the company’s proprietary Failure Atlas, which incorporates more than a decade of cause-and-effect data around how online systems fail.

Imply is bringing modern data architecture to security teams facing growing data volumes, rising costs and new demands from AI-driven investigations, while preserving the SIEM tools and workflows they already depend on.

An agent working an alert follows each finding with new questions, often reaching into other data sources and further back in time than a detection rule would, so the underlying architecture has to keep more data accessible and absorb search demand that is much harder to predict.

Imply Lumi provides a shared data layer beneath existing SIEM tools and modern AI agents, allowing organizations to expand access to security data while continuing to use their existing security tools and workflows.

As more customer communication moves through apps, SaaS platforms, automated workflows, and third-party services, security teams need visibility into how those channels are being used as well as who can access them.

One employee can spot the attack, and automation can remove it for everyone else.” The Hoxhunt Respond platform has been documented to save more than 900 hours of SOC analysis per month at enterprise companies.

Rapid7 research into calendar-based phishing showed how malicious content can appear inside familiar workflows, while our earlier look at how social engineering is evolving explored the growing use of collaboration tools and other everyday platforms to make attacks feel routine.

For Rapid7 customers, agent activity could increasingly become another source of security telemetry and behavioral context, allowing analysts to follow the full chain from the initiating identity through delegated agents, tool invocations, and data movement.

These rules run in the Attack Disruption engine inside the Huntress EDR agent: a lightweight micro-engine on the endpoint itself, matching behavior in real time.

What happened

What changed

Imply is bringing modern data architecture to security teams facing growing data volumes, rising costs and new demands from AI-driven investigations, while preserving the SIEM tools and workflows they already depend on.

An agent working an alert follows each finding with new questions, often reaching into other data sources and further back in time than a detection rule would, so the underlying architecture has to keep more data accessible and absorb search demand that is much harder to predict.

Who is affected

Imply Lumi provides a shared data layer beneath existing SIEM tools and modern AI agents, allowing organizations to expand access to security data while continuing to use their existing security tools and workflows.

As more customer communication moves through apps, SaaS platforms, automated workflows, and third-party services, security teams need visibility into how those channels are being used as well as who can access them.

Why it matters

One employee can spot the attack, and automation can remove it for everyone else.” The Hoxhunt Respond platform has been documented to save more than 900 hours of SOC analysis per month at enterprise companies.

Rapid7 research into calendar-based phishing showed how malicious content can appear inside familiar workflows, while our earlier look at how social engineering is evolving explored the growing use of collaboration tools and other everyday platforms to make attacks feel routine.

Technical details

For Rapid7 customers, agent activity could increasingly become another source of security telemetry and behavioral context, allowing analysts to follow the full chain from the initiating identity through delegated agents, tool invocations, and data movement.

These rules run in the Attack Disruption engine inside the Huntress EDR agent: a lightweight micro-engine on the endpoint itself, matching behavior in real time.

When attackers use legitimate identities, integrations, cloud services, or communication platforms, analysts need to connect behavior across systems rather than depend on a known-bad IP address or malware signature to tell the story.

Response

Something worth knowing before you assume this is handled: Huntress data shows more than 60% of tenants are missing over half of our recommended identity controls, even when other tooling is already in place.

Security teams can keep the tools they know while making more of their data available for investigations and AI-driven analysis.

What security teams should do

See our data breach guidance for information on what you should do when you are affected by an incident like this.

Teams can search both indexed data and unstructured logs stored in object storage using familiar languages like SPL and SQL, making more of their security history available for investigations without changing existing workflows.

Infosecurity Magazine: In a report published on October 6, the coalition called for a binding operational directive (BOD), arguing that no directive sets minimum practices for federal OT and that CISA lacks visibility into the risks.

BleepingComputer: That’s why threat actors are turning their attention to encrypting backups.
