Reflecting on an Impactful Week at Black Hat USA 2024
Company Insights
It’s been two weeks since Black Hat USA 2024 concluded in Las Vegas, NV, and the excitement from the event still lingers. This year’s conference was a dynamic platform for Securonix to demonstrate our industry-leading AI-Reinforced capabilities, forge new meaningful connections, and leave a lasting mark on the cybersecurity landscape.
Building Relationships, Driving Engagement
With over 21,700 unique attendees, Black Hat USA 2024 was the ideal environment for Securonix to engage with a wide range of cybersecurity professionals. Our booth served as a central hub of activity, drawing in a steady stream of visitors eager to learn more about our cutting-edge solutions. We conducted over 60 demos and held many prospect meetings with Fortune 500 companies from the aviation, health, tech, and defense industries, among others. These interactions allowed us to deepen existing relationships and spark new ones, all while showcasing the power of Securonix’s offerings.
Making a Splash at the CISO Summit
Our presence at the exclusive CISO Summit was a highlight of the week. Securonix’s new CEO Kash Shaikh and Chief Product Officer Haggai Polak engaged with key industry leaders, discussing the future of cybersecurity, new and evolving threats, and the strategic role of Securonix’s AI-Reinforced CyberOps capabilities. This invite-only event provided a unique opportunity to connect with top decision-makers in a focused, high-impact setting.
Creating Buzz on the Show Floor
Our booth at Black Hat was a hotspot of activity, thanks in part to our engaging raffle prize drawing for 4 Morgan Wallen floor seat concert tickets. The excitement surrounding the giveaway drew significant crowds, amplifying the visibility of Securonix on the show floor.
Our punching bag game was so successful at RSA 2024, that it made a comeback for Black Hat. Steady crowds lined up throughout the show to take a swing and see if they could make the leaderboard. Our very own Chief Executive Officer, Kash Shaikh, jumped in on the fun and even the infamous pirate Jack Sparrow made an appearance.
Celebrating Success at the CyberOps Social Club
Wednesday evening’s CyberOps Social Club Happy Hour at S Bar in the heart of Mandalay Bay was a resounding success, with hundreds of attendees enjoying refreshments and engaging conversations. Co-hosted with KnowBe4, Critical Start, and Semperis, the event provided a relaxed atmosphere for networking and celebrating the week’s achievements. It was a fantastic way to kick off the first night of Black Hat USA, setting the tone for the rest of the conference.
The Next Wave of Securonix EON
At the conference we also announced two new features within the groundbreaking Securonix EON suite of AI-Reinforced capabilities: Cyber Data Fabric and Noise Canceling SIEM. These innovations bolster the award-winning Unified Defense SIEM platform empowering CyberOps teams to better respond to and counter the rise in sophisticated cyberattacks. Attendees from leading companies across the Tech, Education and Healthcare space were among the many who experienced firsthand what sets Securonix apart.
Following the successful launch of Securonix EON, the second release of AI-Reinforced capabilities addresses the ongoing challenges of resource constraints, overwhelming volumes of data and alerts, and complex AI-powered attacks in cyber operations. As the first and only AI-Reinforced SIEM solution provider, Securonix offers the flexibility and control for organizations to maximize their security investments and protect themselves against emerging threats with improved speed, precision, and efficacy.
Media Interviews and Industry Recognition
Kash Shaikh also joined Dark Reading’s Terry Sweeney at the News Desk during Black Hat USA and mapped the crossroads of SIEM and AI and what customers can expect from the hybrid. Kash emphasized the importance of AI-powered SIEM solutions that reduce costs and enhance efficiency for SOC analysts. He highlighted the use of AI to cut alert volumes by up to 50% and discussed how a data fabric can differentiate security from compliance data, further lowering costs. They also discussed the challenges customers face due to market consolidation and the disruption caused by forced platform changes.
The industry took notice of Securonix’s presence at Black Hat USA 2024 and the launch of the next wave of Securonix EON. CSO Online recognized our EON capabilities as one of the most significant new cybersecurity products debuting at the event, solidifying our position as a leader in the space. This recognition, coupled with the valuable connections made ensures that Securonix will continue to build on the momentum from Black Hat as we move forward.
A Team Effort Behind the Success
The success of our Black Hat USA 2024 experience would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of the entire Securonix team. From those who stood on the show floor engaging with prospects to those working tirelessly behind the scenes, every team member played a crucial role in making this event a triumph. A special thank you goes to those who went above and beyond, including Caren Auchman, German Fabella, Phil Tran, Augusto Barros, Taylor Kain, Eric Rodriguez, Gautam Khartade, Aukse Kalanta, Jennifer Stanton, Ankith Nagarle, Sail Saurabh, Chad Neely, Solay Addaikalavan, Stephen Murihia, Adrian Kearns, Gavin Vanderveldt, Mark Stevens, and Neda Ghalambor. Additionally, we extend our gratitude to the onsite Executive Leadership Team for their invaluable support and leadership: Kash Shaikh, Biju Muduli, Scott Sampson, Haggai Polak, and Al Arun.
Black Hat USA 2024 was an incredible opportunity for Securonix to showcase our capabilities, strengthen relationships, and set the stage for future success. We’re already looking forward to what the rest of 2024 has in store as we continue to lead the way in AI-Reinforced CyberOps.
