About me
I am currently a Director of Machine Learning and Engineering at Lacework.
Lacework is a cloud security services provider that automates cloud security at scale so customers can innovate with speed and safety. Lacework was founded on a core belief: better security starts with data. My team, the Security Insights and Efficacy team uses the wealth of data collected by Lacework agents to deliver three customer-facing outcomes:
Incident detection: we build behavior-based machine learning engine - Polygraph. The polygraph technology used by Lacework creates a behavioral model of the infrastructure and client services in real time. The hierarchy of processes, containers, pods, and machines are all understood by the model. Then, it creates behavioral models that the polygraph checks for unusual behaviors and anomalous patterns using state of the art graph based AI approaches.
Alert lifecycle response tooling: we generate security alerts and warnings and assist the customer with tools to investigate and prioritize problems using techniques like Generative AI to help customers understand actionability.
Threat hunting tooling: we provide customers with insights and tools like notebook-based investigation experiences and visualization techniques like Security Graph that helps SOC analysts in proactively detecting potential upcoming threats.
Filed for 8 patents with my colleagues so far at Lacework.
