Composable Security Operations
Abstract's platform is built on a composable security operations architecture, which separates security data sources from their destinations. This design allows organizations to integrate various components of their security stack, including data collection, detection, retention, and AI-enabled operations, without being restricted to a single vendor's SIEM architecture. The platform analyzes data in motion and routes it to different storage destinations, converting it into formats like OCSF, ECS, and CIM to reduce storage costs.
Vision for AI-Gen Security Operations
Abstract Security, founded in 2023 by a team with backgrounds from ArcSight, Bank of America, Palo Alto Networks, and Mandiant, aims to evolve security operations beyond traditional SIEMs. CEO Colby DeRodeff stated that AI-Gen Security Operations gives organizations control over their data, runs detections on data in motion, and embeds AI into every stage of detection, triage, investigation, and response.
