AI is only as good as the data it's trained on.. Yes, that includes Agents

"...the focus is on unifying data ecosystems to enable AI-driven insights. Data quality and privacy remain at the forefront, especially as AI applications demand fresh and accurate data." - Data Engineering Weekly

If you've recently spent any time on cybersecurity LinkedIn, X, or BlueSky, you're likely nauseated from the debate on autonomous cybersecurity agents and AI for security.

While opinions vary, one truth remains constant: "AI is only as good as the data it's trained on". And the truth is that data ETL, quality and consistency across security data sources are still hard problems most enterprises and security vendors face.

These are challenges that are at the core of our mission and we couldn't be more thrilled to help usher in the era of trustworthy and transparent AI for security. If you're building anything at this intersection and are interested in how Monad can help, let's chat: product@monad.com

Data Engineering For Cybersecurity Pt. 5: Data Routing - Coming Soon

As mentioned above, security data ETL, consistency, and quality are still major challenges plaguing security teams and vendors. We've been covering these topics in depth in our Data Engineering for Cybersecurity blog series and will be releasing Part 5 on Data Routing next month.

For now, check out Part 4 which focused on Data Transformation and it's role in reducing alert fatigue, enabling vulnerability prioritization, and ultimately, making security data management simpler.
