It started back in August of 2022 as a fairly common breach notification on a blog, but it, unfortunately, turned into more of a blog series. If you follow Information Security at all you are surely aware of the LastPass breach situation. So basically: Minor incident, but no customer data or vaults were lost.

Splunk’s inability to migrate to a modern cloud-native architecture makes it difficult to take advantage of these cost-saving benefits or implement advanced data science use cases critical for threat detection. Influxes of data ingestion and the flat architecture of data lakes have led to difficulties in extracting value from repositories.
