Since day one, Cribl has been on a mission to give users more control and more value from their observability and security data. We had a feeling that putting customers first would be the key to unlocking that value, so “Customers First, Always” went at the top of the list when the time came to talk about company values.

Avoiding vendor lock-in is a ‘must’ when it comes to working with new services. Those in ITOps, DevOps, or as an SRE also don’t want to be tied to specific vendors when it comes to their telemetry data. And that’s why OpenTelemetry’s popularity has surged lately. OpenTelemetry prevents you from being locked into specific vendors for the agents that collect your data.

We’re excited to announce an expanded partnership with CrowdStrike and introduce CrowdStream, a powerful new native platform capability that enables customers to seamlessly connect any data source to the CrowdStrike Falcon platform.

Do you want to confidently move workloads to the cloud without dropping or losing data? Of course, everyone does. But easier said than done. Cloud migration is tricky.

Using the Auto authentication method paired with Assume Role is the most secure way to connect Amazon S3 to Cribl.

At Cribl, we understand precisely what challenges our customers face when running complex searches, and the importance of getting exactly what they need with their queries. Cribl Search’s latest feature, Operator Preview, allows data analysts to test search operators without committing to a full search. It saves time, reduces costs, and streamlines your everyday data analysis.

For so many, the unknown sucks. Knowing or knowing what to expect is best. Why? Because it puts us at ease, and peace and gives us a calm sense of knowing without having experienced it yet. That’s part of my mission here at Cribl. I talk to a lot of people and the one consistent part of these conversations is the unknown.

In this live stream, CDW’s Brenden Morgenthaler and I discuss a foundational issue with many security programs — having the right data to detect issues and make fast decisions.

Watch the video or continue reading below to learn about these issues and the strategies we use to solve security’s data problem.
