The 2026 SANS SOC Survey revealed that AI adoption is outpacing integration. While 79% of SOCs now use AI tools, only 36% have built them into a defined workflow. That gap is where risk lives.

Analysts need an AI-native SIEM solution that works as fast as the threats they're chasing ... otherwise they'll turn to outside tools. If your current SIEM isn't built for the AI era, it's worth exploring what a different architecture looks like.

In this product brief, SANS breaks down how SIEM with Elastic Security empowers teams to defend with speed and scale through:

• Embedded AI features: Elevating analyst workflows with embedded AI features that summarize alerts, generate detection queries, and suggest remediation steps
• Resource-based pricing: Flexible and robust data storage tiering that allows teams to upload as much data as they need, only charging for what's used
• Elasticsearch Query Language (ES|QL): Elastic's pipe-based query language that enables teams to navigate, filter, and correlate data across sources without rebuilding queries for each platform
