GTT bets that the network, not the log file, is where AI-era security gets won

Security teams face a time problem, and AI is making it worse.

The short version

• Attackers use AI to find flaws and write exploits faster than any human-staffed security operations center can respond, while most defensive tools still collect telemetry, ship it somewhere, normalize it, and only then analyze it.
• Each step adds delay, and in security, delay is exposure.
• GTT Communications believes the answer is to stop moving data and place intelligence where network traffic already is.

What happened

The company recently launched GTT Defense Halo , an AI-native network defense platform that runs on its AI factory, embedded in GTT’s global Tier 1 backbone. The factory connects to New York, Dallas, London, and Prague, and each customer receives a dedicated, single-tenant instance rather than a slice of a shared cloud environment.

Why it matters

I received a pre-launch briefing and demo from Chris Bonavita , GTT’s vice president of strategy and technology adoption.
