New research data reveals generative AI is a divisive topic amongst IT leaders, as cyber teams evaluate the benefits of the technology alongside concerns around data privacy

LONDON, June 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Corelight, a leader in open network detection and response (NDR), today published a new research* paper highlighting the strong divide among European IT leaders over the suitability of generative AI (GenAI) for use by their cybersecurity teams.

The latest study has found that, although 46% of respondents state that they are proactively looking at how to incorporate the technology in their cybersecurity approaches, 44% also believe that the sensitive nature of the data involved – along with engrained enterprise silos – will in fact make it difficult to use GenAI. Of the approximately one-third of responding organisations not currently using GenAI technology for threat detection and response, 37% cite C-suite concerns as the reason.

“Our research highlights a fair degree of market scepticism and a clear need for further education, particularly amongst C-level executive teams,” says Matt Ellison, Technical Director EMEA, Corelight.

“However, we know that GenAI will give SOC teams a major boost in delivering the insights analysts need to enhance productivity and bridge skills gaps.”

He continued: “Security vendors must work hard to build sufficient guardrails into their AI-powered products, so more organisations can enhance threat detection and response with this transformative technology.”

Corelight found European ITDMs (IT Decision Makers) were split down the middle in their perception of GenAI use for cybersecurity and exactly half (50%) of the responding ITDMs believed GenAI will have the biggest impact on providing alert context and analysis. They also cite the following potential use cases:

Maintaining compliance policies (41%)Recommending best practices on domain-specific languages like identity and access management policy (36%)Unstructured vulnerability information (35%)Providing remediation guidance (35%)Unstructured network connection and process information (32%)

Alongside some clear concerns and question marks about the practical use and implementation of GenAI in a security environment, 68% of respondents with dedicated threat hunters say it’s already helping their threat detection and protection efforts. And a further 28% plan to incorporate these capabilities into more use cases in the future.

Despite the legitimate concerns of many European ITDMs, many have a positive view of the future. More than 40% of respondents claim AI and automation are central to creating “the perfect security formula”.

“Generative AI has been successfully applied for alert enrichment and contextualisation, providing SOC analysts with enhanced incident response capabilities,” added Ignacio Arnoldo, Director of Data Science, Corelight.

He continued: “GenAI’s adoption is hindered by concerns over data confidentiality and model accuracy. As models improve in overall reasoning capacity and cybersecurity knowledge, and as more LLM deployments include structural privacy protections, GenAI is set to become integral to security operations.”

Corelight helps customers mitigate data protection concerns by establishing a functional firewall so that customer-specific data cannot interact with the GenAI model. Pre-vetted GenAI prompts are used to contextualise alerts and provide analysts with investigative recommendations.

April 21, 2026

Employee-owned company expands services to provide embedded teams that protect uptime, manage continuous change, and support long-term data center performance.

BROOKFIELD, Wis., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — As demand for data infrastructure continues to accelerate, CC&N is expanding its infrastructure support capabilities into data center environments. The Southeastern Wisconsin-based, 100 percent employee-owned company today announced the availability of its Data Center Day 2 Infrastructure Support services for mission-critical environments.

“Our Day 2 Infrastructure Support teams stay embedded in the environment, helping organizations manage change without compromising performance,” said Dan Witkofski, President of CC&N. “We focus on getting the details right so issues don’t surface later.”

While much of the industry focuses on data center construction and deployment, CC&N is building on its experience in those environments to support and maintain them once live, which includes ongoing operational support. Once infrastructure is installed, environments continue to evolve as systems expand, equipment changes and operational demands increase.

“At CC&N, we understand that the work doesn’t stop once a data center is up and running; we know that it shifts,” said Dan Witkofski, President of CC&N. “Our Day 2 Infrastructure Support teams stay embedded in the environment, helping organizations manage change without compromising performance. We focus on getting the details right so issues don’t surface later.”

CC&N’s Day 2 Infrastructure Support services provide embedded technicians who operate inside live data center environments as an extension of the customer’s team. Working within established workflows, ticketing systems and change management processes, these technicians help ensure consistency, accountability and precision across all infrastructure activities.

The service offering includes:

Support for moves, adds and changes (MAC)Troubleshooting of fiber, copper and rack-level connectivityProactive infrastructure maintenanceDisciplined labeling and documentation practices that preserve clarity and traceability over time

By combining physical infrastructure expertise with operational alignment, CC&N helps organizations reduce risk, improve response times, and maintain long-term system reliability.

“Day 2 support is about maintaining control in environments that are constantly changing,” Witkofski added. “We’ve long supported these types of needs for our customers, and now we’re bringing that same discipline and expertise directly into data center environments. Our teams bring the operational discipline and hands-on expertise needed to keep infrastructure organized, responsive and reliable as demands grow.”

CC&N’s approach is rooted in its employee-owned structure, where technicians take ownership of their work and remain engaged until issues are fully resolved. The company’s teams operate across hyperscale, colocation and enterprise data centers, supporting mission-critical environments where uptime is essential and precision matters.

As organizations continue to scale their data center operations, CC&N’s Day 2 Infrastructure Support services provide a structured, consistent approach to managing ongoing infrastructure needs without expanding internal headcount.
