Summary

Elastic Security 7.10 introduces a suite of enhancements designed to empower security operations centers (SOCs) by improving automated detection, prioritization, and response to complex threats across on-premises and cloud environments. This release enhances the capabilities of the SIEM detection engine through new correlation rules using Event Query Language (EQL) for more precise alerts, and introduces prebuilt detection rules for major cloud providers like Azure, Google Cloud, and AWS. Additionally, it provides out-of-the-box protection for remote work platforms such as Zoom, integrates with various data sources including Cisco Umbrella and Microsoft 365 Defender, and supports long-term data retention strategies with searchable snapshots on object stores like Amazon S3. The update also features improvements in user interface, workflow integration, and endpoint security management, aiming to reduce alert fatigue and increase efficiency in threat detection and response. Elastic Security 7.10 fosters community-driven content development and encourages feedback through platforms like GitHub and Slack, while offering new experimental data integrations to further expand its functionality.
