Avoid Shadow AI — Embrace generative AI in the SOC

Generative AI presents both opportunities and risks for cybersecurity operations, as companies face the challenge of managing its integration while avoiding the pitfalls of "Shadow AI," where employees use AI tools without official approval, potentially exposing the organization to security risks. The article advises organizations to embrace generative AI by implementing strong controls and using trusted solutions, such as Microsoft Azure OpenAI, to maintain data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Elastic promotes transparency and user control with its AI Assistant, emphasizing the importance of maintaining control over data and encouraging organizations to adopt generative AI responsibly. By doing so, companies can enhance their security posture and empower their teams, ultimately preventing the unauthorized use of generative AI and supporting the effective operation of security operations centers (SOCs).
