Elastic Security 8.6 introduces enhancements to streamline the investigation and response processes in security operations centers by integrating SIEM, cloud, and endpoint security solutions. This release offers new data source integrations with platforms like AWS Inspector and Microsoft 365 Defender, expanding the ability to ingest relevant security information. It also enhances detection capabilities with prebuilt rules to identify complex attack behaviors and introduces machine learning-based data exfiltration detection. The update aims to reduce alert fatigue through a preview of alert suppression and improve workflows for analysts, allowing them to investigate multiple alerts in parallel and providing tools for quicker response. Available on Elastic Cloud, these improvements are designed to make security operations more efficient and effective, though the release timeline for all features remains at Elastic's discretion.
