Posted by Bengaluru: Arctic Wolf, a global leader in security operations, has announced a major partnership with Databricks, the AI and data company, to enhance its flagship Aurora Platform. This collaboration aims to support the platform’s rapid growth, enabling Arctic Wolf to process vast amounts of security data more efficiently and deliver faster, scalable outcomes for its global customer base.
As organisations adopt more security tools and cloud applications, the volume and complexity of security data are growing exponentially. The increasing telemetry from various attack surfaces is making it harder for security teams to quickly detect threats and respond effectively. Arctic Wolf is addressing this challenge with the Aurora Platform, one of the most scalable and high-performing platforms in the cybersecurity industry.
The Aurora Platform ingests and processes more than eight trillion security observations weekly, along with over 300 petabytes of data annually. By integrating the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform into the platform’s data pipeline, Arctic Wolf can further enhance its ability to unify telemetry from diverse sources such as endpoints, cloud applications, firewalls, and identity systems.
This integration provides Arctic Wolf with the capability to process this information at unprecedented speed, empowering its Security Operations Centre (SOC) to deliver faster and more reliable threat detection and response to its growing customer base of over 10,000 clients worldwide.
Arctic Wolf’s approach is built on leveraging advanced AI technologies, specifically the company’s Alpha AI suite. It’s designed to improve threat detection and response by reducing alert fatigue, streamlining investigation workflows. It helps customers prioritise the most relevant threats to their environment. The system has been honed over 10 million hours of real-world SOC experience and continuously improved with one of the largest and most diverse sets of security telemetry in the industry.
“Modern cybersecurity is a data scale problem. The volume, variety, and velocity of telemetry demand a platform that can turn complexity and noise into clear outcomes,” said Dan Schiappa, President, Technology and Services, Arctic Wolf.
“Partnering with Databricks gives us the scalable foundation to action one of the industry’s most diverse security datasets for faster and better threat protection for our customers. It enables us to grow the Aurora Platform, expand our AI-powered SOC, and deliver faster, more reliable protection for our customers,” added Schiappa.
“By integrating the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform with Arctic Wolf’s Aurora Platform, we’re enabling them to fully harness the power of their security telemetry, driving faster, smarter decisions across one of the world’s largest commercial Security Operations Centres,” said Omar Khawaja, Databricks Field CISO and VP of Security.
By utilising Databricks’ secure lakehouse architecture, Arctic Wolf ensures that all security telemetry is unified, governed, and protected with industry-leading security controls. This integration not only accelerates real-time threat detection but also supports continuous innovation through open, extensible integrations and AI-driven analytics. Ultimately, the partnership enables Arctic Wolf to fulfil its mission of reducing cyber risk, providing customers with the confidence that their data is protected and their security operations are future-ready.
