CGICGI Extends Elastic Search AI Across Detection Engineering
CGI, an information technology organization in Canada, uses Elastic Search AI from Elastic to support detection engineering for detection engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Handoffs in detection engineering sit in a shared queue instead of a mailbox trail |
| Risk and compliance | Fewer stalled items because security telemetry has a clear owner |
| Risk and compliance | Elastic Search AI is the governed place detection engineers use for detection engineering |
Story
Inside CGI, detection engineering used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of Canada. Detection engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
CGI uses Elastic Search AI from Elastic as the working layer for security telemetry. Elastic builds search, observability, and security software on Elasticsearch, used to find information and investigate operational data. The practical change is simple: detection engineering has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What CGI gets from Elastic is a durable place to run detection engineering and a way for detection engineers to see the same security telemetry at the same time.
