Fig has expanded its platform into a complete engineering lifecycle for Security Operations, introducing CI/CD workflows for detection engineering, security configurations, and infrastructure changes. Built on a deterministic security data lineage graph, the platform enables teams to simulate, validate, deploy, and continuously monitor SecOps changes while accelerating SIEM migrations and improving operational resilience.

Starting point is 00:00:00 This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. FIG grows its platform to cover every stage of SECOPs engineering, making resilience the default, by John Stoy and journalist. FIG grows its platform to cover every stage of SECOP's engineering, making resilience the default state security operations teams are under constant pressure to keep pace with an environment that changes every day. New data sources, cloud services, detections, and automations are continually introduced, while upstream systems evolve without warning. Even seemingly minor updates can disrupt detection
Starting point is 00:00:35 pipelines, creating gaps that leave organizations vulnerable to threats. To address that challenge, FIG has announced what it describes as the first complete engineering life cycle for security operations, secops, giving security teams the ability to build, deploy, and continuously monitor changes using a workflow modeled after modern software development. The company says the platform introduces the first true C, CD approach for SECOPs, allowing engineers to develop, chip, and observe security operations changes with greater confidence. Bringing modern engineering practices to the society. At its core, FIG is giving SECOps something it has never had, a complete engineering life cycle for detections and configurations. Rather than manually connecting multiple systems and
Starting point is 00:01:20 workflows, engineers describe the change they want, while FIG analyzes the live security environment and generates a proposed implementation. According to FIG, every proposed change is simulated and tested before reaching production. Once validated, the update can be deployed with version control and rollback capabilities, while continuous observability verifies that both existing and newly introduced detection flows continue operating as intended. The approach aims to bring the same development principles that software engineering teams have relied on for years into the Security Operations Center, SOC, where infrastructure changes often. often carry significant operational risk.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Data lineage is the foundation. The platform is built on what FIG describes as a deterministic graph of security data lineage. This graph maps every detection, data source, and the connections between them into a single flow, providing a comprehensive view of how security operations function across the environment. Because the platform understands relationships
Starting point is 00:02:19 throughout the SECOP stack, FIG can analyze infrastructure in detail before proposing changes. The company positions this visibility as the foundation for maintaining resilience, even a substream or downstream systems evolve over time. Continuous verification is intended to ensure that detection pipelines remain operational after every deployment, reducing the likelihood that infrastructure changes silently disrupts security coverage. Accelerating security operations workflows. Beyond managing day-to-day changes, the new capabilities are designed to accelerate several common SECOPs tasks. According to
Starting point is 00:02:53 to FIG, security teams can convert threat reports into detections and queries much faster, enabling organizations to respond to emerging risks without waiting through lengthy engineering cycles. The platform is also intended to simplify seam migrations by allowing organizations to complete transitions in weeks rather than months while maintaining operational security throughout the process. FIG also says teams gain greater control over the data plane, enabling them tow manage data ingestion and storage costs without affecting live detections. The company summarizes the model simply, security engineers provide the detection logic while the platform handles the underlying operational complexity. Customer perspective, Jamie Hancock,
Starting point is 00:03:35 head of security operations and engineering at App Loven, described the impact the platform has had on his team's workflow. With Figwe build and ship accurate detection changes in minutes instead of weeks, without the endless plumbing, said Jamie Hancock, head of security operations and engineering at App Loven. My team builds with a confident. we've never had, and yeah, we've even started, vibe parsing. The comment reflects one of the central themes of the announcement, reducing the engineering overhead traditionally associated with maintaining modern security operations. Building toward more resilient security operations. The launch builds on FIG's broader focus on security operations resilience, Anorea the company has emphasized
Starting point is 00:04:15 since emerging from stealth. Earlier this year, the company announced $38 million in funding from Team 8, 1011 Ventures, and Crosspoint Capital, became a finalist in the RSAC innovation sandbox, and said its platform has been deployed across dozens of Fortune 500 organizations. Founded by veterans of Google SecOps and C-EMPLIFI, FIG says its platform was developed to address operational failures that often occur as security environments grow more complex. Rather than treating infrastructure changes as isolated events, the company aims to ensure every modification is designed with context, validated before deployment, and continuously monitored afterward. Security teams shouldn't have to choose between moving quickly and maintaining confidence
Starting point is 00:04:59 in their SECOP infrastructure, said Gal Sheffir, co-founder and CEOF FIG. Greater than FIG gives SecOps engineers the same modern engineering workflow that software greater than developers have long relied on. They can design changes with complete context, greater than prove those changes work before deployment, and continuously verify that their greater than security operations remain resilient as their environments evolve.
