Following the cultural and technological explosion brought forth by the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT last fall, the security industry has seen enormous investment in technologies for large language models (LLMs), such as generative AI. While players like Google and Microsoft have launched new generative AI security products, IBM, CrowdStrike, and Tenable have integrated features into their existing products. Though each product has its own capabilities, the focal point is to automate threat hunting and prioritize breach alerts.
