Summary

The Elastic Stack received the 2019 Fortress Cyber Security Award in the Threat Detection category for its innovative capabilities in securing data, infrastructure, and personnel against cyber threats. Known for its ability to process and analyze data from any source in real-time, Elastic Stack has been rapidly adopted in the security sector, enabling analysts to quickly generate and test hypotheses. Organizations like Slack, OmniSOC, and Sprint utilize Elastic to enhance their cybersecurity defenses, detect malicious activities, and reduce fraud. The introduction of Elastic SIEM in version 7.2 further demonstrates Elastic's commitment by providing an interactive workspace for security operations, enriched with machine learning and automated threat detection capabilities, which significantly boosts the efficiency and effectiveness of threat response. The Elastic Stack's ability to index data as it is ingested allows for near-instant access to information, thus facilitating the real-time monitoring and analysis necessary for modern security operations.
