I’m not one to blog, but speaking with clients, peers, and colleagues, I often hear statements like “SIEM is dead” or “this is the SOC of the future.” So what do they really mean? Honestly, I’m not entirely sure either — there are so many conflicting viewpoints and ways of addressing this.

The real horror story is happening inside SOCs every single day. Analysts are buried alive under endless alerts. Silent screams when critical threats slip through. Empty chairs as burnout claims another teammate. Here are the five nightmares every SOC analyst knows too well — and how Torq HyperSOC turns them from never-ending sequels into closed cases.

Agentic AI in cybersecurity promises to transform workflows as we know them, enabling a new level of personalization, automation, efficiency, and innovation. It’s already being deployed by security teams for use cases like autonomous threat detection and response, advanced threat hunting, automated incident investigation, real-time fraud protection, and more. So, how is agentic AI working overtime to help security analysts build a more resilient security posture?

Cloud has changed everything: how we build, how we deploy, and how attackers strike.

Credential replay remains one of the most efficient ways attackers turn stolen usernames, passwords, or tokens into real account access. Verizon’s 2024 DBIR shows that over 40% of breaches involve stolen credentials, underscoring the durability of this tactic. Even strong authentication is not immune. Techniques like pass-the-cookie and adversary-in-the-middle phishing allow attackers to replay tokens and sidestep MFA.
