## Overview
Can your SIEM find the needle in the haystack — or does it need a smarter partner?
Join Matt Franz, AI Security Lead at Bespin Global, as he shows you how to vibe-code a custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server for your SIEM in Go, whether or not your vendor already ships one.
In 25 minutes, you’ll benefit from Matt’s experience building tools for SentinelOne, Osquery, Coralogix, and Elastic and learn:
* **Client Library Reuse:** A method for building and reusing client libraries even when your vendor offers no SDK or API spec.
* **Agent Integration:** Hands-on techniques for wiring your MCP Server into coding agents and agent frameworks.
* **Performance Tuning:** Practical approaches to tuning tool calling, prompting, and query guardrails to cut latency.
* **Data Optimization:** Testing, observability, and caching strategies to optimize queries for your datasets.
* **Threat Hunting Workflow:** A git/markdown threat-hunting workflow you can operationalize into a persistent knowledge base.
> MCP security concerns are real, but local MCP servers can be built and run safely, with significant payoff for your team (human and agentic alike). You might even save a token or two!
