Elastic Runs Security Agents on a Tight Leash

Elastic’s chief information security officer says the company runs its security agents on a tight leash, with no auto-remediation yet for its AI-powered security agents. The company’s approach to security is to use AI agents to detect and respond to threats, but human oversight is still required to ensure that the agents do not cause harm. This approach is part of the changing nature of cybersecurity, where identity is becoming the new perimeter.
