“Onum is both a pipeline and a filter, which will stream high-quality, filtered data directly into the platform to drive autonomous cybersecurity at scale,” Kurtz said. “This is how we stop breaches at the speed of AI while giving customers complete control over their entire data ecosystem — well beyond cybersecurity.”
Onum’s technology will complement Falcon’s, making it possible to detect risks before they enter the platform itself, according to the company. Thus, Falcon will gain in speed, by processing “five times more events per second than its closest competitor”; in costs, by lowering storage costs by 50% with intelligent optimization; or in results, by achieving a response to incidents up to 70% faster with 40% less ingest overhead, the company claims.
To Fortune, Kurtz explained that the more data they can process, “the larger the moat we actually have, and the greater the opportunity we have to solve bigger and broader problems from an AI perspective. That’s really driving our vision for AI-native SOC [security operations center].”
