Anton’s Security Blog Quarterly Q3 2026
Anton’s Security Blog Quarterly now again covers Anton on Security only. It no longer includes my posts from Google Cloud blog, Google Cloud community blog (some exceptions noted below), and sadly I no longer run a Cloud Security Podcast by Google …
Top 10 posts with the most lifetime views (excluding paper announcement blogs):
- Anton’s Alert Fatigue: The Study [A.C. — wow, this is still #1 now! Awesome! Perhaps I need more of such deep studies…]
- Security Correlation Then and Now: A Sad Truth About SIEM [A.C. — this is also an extra long one, perhaps this needs some Part 2 updating the ideas to 2026…]
- Can We Have “Detection as Code”?
- Detection Engineering is Painful — and It Shouldn’t Be (Part 1)
- Revisiting the Visibility Triad for 2020 (update for 2025 is here!)
- Beware: Clown-grade SOCs Still Abound
- Why is Threat Detection Hard?
- Top 10 SIEM Log Sources in Real Life?
- A SOC Tried To Detect Threats in the Cloud … You Won’t Believe What Happened Next
- Log Centralization: The End Is Nigh?
Now, fun posts by topic.

P.S. With some help from Claude, I rebuilt my old Blogger blog to be a backup. If something happens to my Medium, you can enjoy my 2005–2026+ posts there. Or you can train your AI on it and then have your very own Anton-bot? :-)
