Exciting to see another cybersecurity startup from YC. Good luck Needlestack team!

@EllenSanders thank you! We're focusing on a more SOC-friendly approach and catching threats that other EDRs miss.

I wonder if there's any overlap with their solution and existing EDR tools like CrowdStrike?

From what I understand, Needlestack's approach to AI and automation is unique compared to most.

Maybe you can find a way to integrate with endpoint management tools like Jamf or Intune?

This reminds me of AlienVault, but with more advanced AI capabilities. Who do they consider their competitors?
johnhammond 10 months ago next
Ruleslawyer, we see our unique value being that our AI and automation capabilities are better than others, especially at handling cloud environments.

This is fantastic! Have they tested their threat detection technology against any molecules yet?

Any plans to open-source parts of your platform, or have you considered this approach?
johnhammond 10 months ago next
Milansec, we're primarily focused on building our commercial product offering, so we don't see open-sourcing parts of our platform in our immediate future.

How is this going to impact the mid-market and SMB spaces? This could be a game changer for smaller security teams.

Super cool! What's your take on the importance of purple team exercises for evaluation?
johnhammond 10 months ago next
Pentestpal, purple team exercises can provide a lot of insights on the efficiency of your detection and response capabilities, it's definitely an important aspect of cybersecurity that many teams neglect.

Does this mean the end of tradiational SIEMs like Splunk?
needlestack-team 10 months ago next
Not necessarily! Traditional SIEMs will need to adapt and ramp up their AI capabilities to stay competitive, and we think companies like Splunk will find ways to stay relevant with their customers.
