Elastic AI Assistant is a notable addition to Elastic Security, designed to enhance the capabilities of security analysts by synthesizing alert details, suggesting next steps, and generating ES|QL queries from natural language. Highlighted in an impact brief by Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), the Assistant is poised to transform the security landscape by leveraging the Elasticsearch Relevance Engine (ESRE) to make cybersecurity more accessible to users of all skill levels. The open and adaptable AI framework of the Assistant is emphasized as a key advantage, aiming to reduce the learning curve in security operations. However, the availability and timing of new features are subject to Elastic's discretion, and users are advised to exercise caution when using AI tools, particularly regarding data privacy and security.
