Torq took home the top prize at Check Point’s 2025 Innovation Sandbox Competition during their annual CPX conference in Las Vegas. Chris Coburn, Torq’s Sr. Director of Tech Alliances, faced off against 13 other companies to pitch Torq’s AI-native autonomous SOC to a panel of judges and voting audience.

Now that six in ten security leaders view AI as a “game changer” across all security functions and 85% of security professionals report increased AI investment and usage in the past year, it’s clear that AI is no longer a fringe technology in security operations. But the AI conversation has evolved recently as a new buzzword has taken over: agentic AI.

At Torq, our commitment to security has always been at the forefront of our mission to empower businesses through our SaaS platform. Today, we’re proud to announce a significant step forward in our security journey: Torq has signed the CISA Secure by Design Pledge. This pledge underscores our dedication to ensuring that our customers can trust our platform to uphold the highest security standards, enabling customers to focus on their goals without concerns about their security posture.

For security teams, resolving a cloud incident takes an average of 10 days — time attackers can exploit to cause further damage. The problem? SOCs often lack the context and cloud security automation they need to respond faster. That’s where the partnership between Torq and Sweet Security changes the game.
