Security trends for 2025

Rapidly developing cybersecurity events are driving security operation centers and technology vendors alike to redefine their strategies in order to adapt to the dynamic landscape. These advancements are shaking up security teams' traditional workflows and establishing an evolved methodology for tackling a new era of advanced threats.

Jake King, Elastic Security Lead, is joined by guest speaker Allie Mellen, Forrester Principal Analyst, in a dialogue around the most pressing cybersecurity trends and events. See how tools and practices — both established and brand new — are being developed and refined in response to the shifting threat landscape. With unique insights from the recent Elastic Global Threat Report and predictions from Forrester, this event will explore:

• The changes that security teams should expect from vendors and the SIEM market
• The role that generative AI will play for both defenders and adversaries
• The rising trend of credential access techniques and how defenders can detect and respond
• Cloud defaults and methods to improve security posture
• The importance of detection engineering and encouraging rapid response with practices like detections-as-code
