Machine learning has become an important component of many applications we use today. And adding machine learning capabilities to applications is becoming increasingly easy. Many ML libraries and online services don’t even require a thorough knowledge of machine learning. However, even easy-to-use machine learning systems come with their own challenges. Among them is the threat of adversarial attacks, which has become one of the important concerns of ML applications.
Many of you are familiar with Splunk’s Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) and the Deep Learning Toolkit (DLTK) for Splunk and have started working with either one to address security, operations, DevOps or business use cases. A frequently asked question that I often hear about MLTK is how to organize the data flow in Splunk Enterprise or Splunk Cloud.
The artificial neuron was first hypothesized in the 1930s, but only in the last decade have we seen the widespread application of artificial neural networks and machine learning to everyday technologies. Broadly speaking, machine learning describes a technical discipline defined by computer algorithms that improve automatically through experience and the use of data. These days, the combination of machine learning and "big data" power an increasing number of digital tools that we interact with daily.
As we’ve shown in a previous blog, search-based detection rules and Elastic’s machine learning-based anomaly detection can be a powerful way to identify rare and unusual activity in cloud API logs. Now, as of Elastic Security 7.13, we’ve introduced a new set of unsupervised machine learning jobs for network data, and accompanying alert rules, several of which look for geographic anomalies.
