Open Security impact: Elastic AI Assistant

Elastic's Open Security initiative has led to the development of the Elastic AI Assistant, an AI-powered tool designed to enhance security operations by integrating large language models (LLMs) into the workflow of security analysts. Built on the Elastic Common Schema (ECS), this assistant aids users by providing guided investigations, crafting queries, and offering workflow suggestions, thus making security tasks more efficient for both novice and experienced analysts. By contributing to open-source projects like OpenTelemetry, Elastic fosters a collaborative environment where users and developers can enhance the common schema for logs and metrics. The Open Security approach ensures that Elastic's AI tools, like the Elastic AI Assistant, leverage publicly available data to optimize operations and accelerate response times, helping analysts manage security events with greater speed and accuracy.
