It’s been about 8 months since we first launched Cribl Search. For our early adopters, it’s been a game changer, and with each monthly release, we continue to innovate — expanding access to new datasets and adding new functionalities. If Crib Search is new to you, here is a quick recap. Cribl Search flips the observability data search paradigm on its head. You no longer have to collect, ingest, and index your data before you can search it.

When I was still writing code, our Splunk license only had enough capacity to monitor our Production environment. So we stood up a self-managed Elastic cluster for our lower environments. This quickly became unmanageable as we started logging more and adding additional environments. As I spend more time in the field, I see this pattern repeated over and over.

When working with sensitive data, there’s no skimping on security. Keeping data protected and private is paramount at Cribl, which is why we prioritized building a robust framework for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and with this latest release, we created an authorization system across the entire Cribl suite. WOOHOO!!

During our March Cribl User Group livestream, Cribl’s own Eugene Katz covered some of the updates we made to our documentation on Architectural Considerations for deploying Cribl Stream. Topics included our guidelines for determining the ideal number of worker nodes, accounting for throughput variability, and preparing for system failure. The full video has more information on these and other things to consider when determining the right balance between cost and risk for your organization.

In this blog series, we’ll explore how Corelight and Cribl Stream work together to improve observability in Security Operations Centers (SOCs). In today’s rapidly changing threat landscape, it’s crucial to efficiently monitor and manage data for effective security operations. Corelight provides exceptional network visibility, while Cribl Stream gives you control and the flexibility to optimize data pipelines and gain valuable insights.

Hey there, Cribl fans! We hope you’re ready to move into the second half of summer with a splash because we have some exciting news to share. Our latest product launch is all about enabling teams and multiple users to work together seamlessly while focusing on security, access control, and providing valuable data insights on demand. Who says you can’t have it all? Let’s dive right into the details!

The common failure scenarios that occur in the cybersecurity world are typically assumed to be costs of doing business, but they’re actually more predictable and avoidable than you might imagine. Even if you’ve been lucky enough to avoid failed data sources or backups, a SIEM getting knocked offline, and other cybersecurity attack situations until now — in today’s day and age, they’re still inevitable.

Many of us remember the public service announcements asking parents if they knew where their kids were at night. They were ominous and a little alarming. Asking yourself the same question about your data can be equally as scary, but Cribl Edge can help.

As someone who admittedly gets bored easily, one of my favorite things about working for a company like Cribl is the huge amount of technologies in our ecosystem I get exposure to. Over time, I also get to observe trends in the market – it’s always so cool to see big upswings in adoption for various platforms and tech. One such trend I’ve observed over the last year is a noticeable uptake and presence in the market of Google Chronicle.
