Taming LLMs to Detect Anomalies in Cloud Audit Logs
Yigael Berger

Cloud audit logs generate massive volumes of data, making anomaly detection a complex and often error-prone challenge. Traditional systems frequently suffer from high false positive rates, overwhelming security teams and obscuring critical insights. In this talk I will explore an innovative approach for training an LLM on log data turning it into a powerful highly nuanced anomaly detection engine.

We will be releasing these components:
1. The code for parsing log data, eg CloudTrail, etc.
2. The code for training the LLM on the log data
3. A lite web app for visualizing and investigating anomalies
