SOAR is dead-dead (too inflexible, too complex, and too limited on integrations) — but it’s not quite buried in some SOCs where it’s only hanging on because migrating can feel daunting when mission-critical workflows are tied to the system. AI-driven Hyperautomation from Torq is the SOAR killer. Our team has helped major enterprises from every industry make the switch, quickly and easily, to achieve true SOC transformation. We chatted with Mark Carosella, Sr.

The 2024 SANS Detection and Response Survey sheds new light on some all-too-familiar security challenges: security operations teams are overwhelmed with alerts, struggling to respond fast enough, and tracking the wrong KPIs. Sure, automation adoption is increasing (64% of organizations now leverage it in some capacity), but most SecOps teams are still operating in slow, reactive, and heavily manual environments.

Banking and financial services companies sit on a goldmine of sensitive customer data, making them a prime target for phishing and ransomware attackers hoping to strike a payout. Even with defenses like MFA and security training, human error continues to be a critical point of failure for financial institutions — a 2024 report found that 3 out of every 1000 individuals working in banking click on a phishing link each month.
