Introducing Modern SecOps, a more realistic alternative to the "autonomous SOC"

I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with traditional SOC. Many SOC teams do great work within this structure.

Yet IT leaders still face mounting pressure across identity and access management (IAM), endpoint management, request fulfillment, and incident response. Today’s end users are more demanding. IT operations are more complex. And time is in short supply.
