Building an AI & Data Security Governance Platform with Elasticsearch (Dan Tecuci - Concentric)
Dan will share how Concentric is building an AI and data security governance platform and how Elasticsearch powers indexing, search, and reporting across the platform.Two Lists, No Words in Common (Firus Hanov - Hanov Consulting)
Sales teams often validate leads against external sources like non-payer blacklists, sanctions lists, and tender registries, but traditional keyword searches fail when the same company or product appears under different names. In this lightning talk, Firus will share how he built Deadstock using Apify, Elasticsearch, and Claude to match records by meaning rather than exact wording.The Devops Metabolism: How CI/CD is like the Krebs Cycle - Sophia Solomon (Developer Advocate at Elastic)
Stop Them in the Act: Live, Query-Driven Forensics with Elastic Defend - (Jason Pappalexis Principal Product Marketing Engineer at Elastic)
See a hands on unified forensic workflow in Elastic Security to rapidly scope and contain live threats. Using an Axios supply chain compromise, we demonstrate mapping the blast radius via Osquery, and taking direct response with host isolation and memory capture.7 attendees
