Security teams are expected to detect and respond to attacks in real time—but often with tools they didn’t choose and workflows that weren’t built for how real threats unfold.

On January 29 at 2:00 PM ET, BleepingComputer will host a live webinar with Adrian Sanabria and David Girvin of Sumo Logic, exploring how executive priorities and security operations can become better aligned and how both sides can get more from the tools already in place.

The webinar, “Failure to communicate: Why execs don’t buy SOC teams the tools they need,” will unpack the disconnect that often exists between platform purchasing decisions and operational realities. Whether driven by consolidation goals, budget strategy, or emerging AI capabilities, tool selection can sometimes miss the practical needs of front-line defenders, resulting in alert fatigue, brittle integrations, and inefficient workflows.

Sumo Logic, a cloud-native analytics and security platform, helps teams cut through complexity to extract real signals from noisy tools. By emphasizing automation, visibility, and operational outcomes, Sumo Logic enables security leaders and analysts alike to maximize the effectiveness of their existing investments.

This timely discussion will highlight how organizations can better evaluate tooling fit, measure true operational value, and create stronger collaboration between executives and practitioners.

Modern security teams need more than dashboards

When tools are selected based on high-level promises rather than day-to-day requirements, the result can be alert overload, shallow integrations, and workflows that stall in the moments that matter. Defenders are left adapting to platforms that don’t fully support how real attacks occur—wasting time, missing signals, and struggling to maintain effectiveness.

This webinar will provide strategies for regaining control, surfacing the capabilities that matter most, and aligning executive strategy with SOC execution.

The upcoming webinar will cover:

• The core capabilities security teams actually depend on

• Why well-intentioned platform decisions sometimes fall short in production

• How to extract value from tools already in place

• Techniques for improving alignment between execs and practitioners

• How to evaluate AI features for real impact, not just marketing appeal

Whether you're leading security strategy or managing daily operations, this session will offer actionable insight into building more resilient, effective defenses.
