AI SOC Migration: Twelve Plays, 90 Days

Our playbook lays out twelve plays to move from a manual alert-fatigued SOC to an agentic AI operating model in 90 days, so you can:

  • Diagnose why the traditional SOC is breaking under 2-minute adversary breakout times
  • Score vendors against a seven-criteria rubric covering integration, autonomy, and transparency
  • Harden your AI SOC against prompt injection, data poisoning, and model evasion attacks
Why Use the AI SOC Migration Playbook?
The average enterprise manages 50–70 security tools while attackers weaponizing agentic AI now achieve breakout times in minutes – traditional SOC operating at human speed cannot match this pace.
