From plain English to production rule: AI-native Elasticsearch ES|QL detection in Elastic Security

Elastic Security has added AI-powered detection rule creation that allows analysts to describe threats in plain English and automatically generates validated Elasticsearch Query Language (ES|QL) rules with MITRE ATT&CK mappings and severity recommendations. The capability is built directly into the rule creation workflow, eliminating the need to learn query syntax or leave the platform. This addresses the growing gap between attack speed and detection engineering capacity by reducing the friction required to write and deploy new detection rules.

Why it matters: Detection engineering teams need to match the pace of AI-augmented attackers; this capability accelerates rule creation for Enterprise license customers, reducing backlog and coverage gaps that adversaries can exploit.

From plain English to production rule: AI-native Elasticsearch ES|QL detection in Elastic Security

Elastic Security has integrated artificial intelligence (AI)-powered detection rule creation directly into its platform, allowing analysts to describe threats in plain English and receive validated Elasticsearch Query Language (ES|QL) rules with MITRE ATT&CK mappings and severity recommendations without writing query syntax. The feature addresses the speed gap between attackers leveraging AI to scale operations and detection engineering teams struggling to keep pace with emerging threats. The AI-native capability, available at the Enterprise license tier, validates rules against live customer data before deployment and removes the friction of learning complex query language and schema knowledge.

Why it matters: Security teams facing growing detection rule backlogs and coverage gaps can now accelerate threat detection engineering and reduce the expertise barrier, directly countering adversaries using AI to automate attacks faster than manual rule writing can match.
