Optimizing the SOC: Leveraging AI and automation for modern threats

The Security Operations Center (SOC) is the nerve center of an organization's defenses, but its efficiency and effectiveness are often limited by the growing volume and complexity of threats. By leveraging AI-driven threat detection and automated incident response, security leaders can optimize their SOC to respond faster and smarter. For CISOs, this means not only protecting the organization from current threats but also future-proofing defenses against an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape.

Automating MITRE ATT&CK Analysis with Torq Socrates

MITRE ATT&CK has become the de facto SOC framework for classifying adversary behavior — and for good reason. It gives SOC teams a common language to describe threats, uncover gaps, and fine-tune detection logic. But let’s be honest: mapping real-world activity to ATT&CK tactics and techniques is still a time-consuming grind.

Architecting a Production-Grade Anti-Phishing Defense System with the NVIDIA NeMo Agent Toolkit and NIM

AI SOC Market Landscape 2025: Torq Leads With Hyperautomation

The SACR 2025 AI SOC Market Landscape Report just dropped, and Torq was named one of the “most feature-rich platforms” on the market. Not because we bolted a chatbot onto triage. But because we’ve built an AI SOC platform modern security teams actually need: an AI-native, execution-first infrastructure that operationalizes intelligence at scale. And that platform works.

Maximizing your Accounting firm's potential with process automation

As an owner of an accounting firm, you've made significant investments in your technology stack. You have best-in-class software for general ledger management like QuickBooks or Xero, a robust CRM for client relations, and perhaps a dedicated platform for document management. Yet, despite this powerful arsenal of tools, your team is likely still mired in manual, repetitive tasks. This is the great paradox of modern accounting: you own the best tools on the market, but your firm's efficiency is still dictated by the manual work that happens between them.

SANS 2025 SOC Survey: SOCs in Slow Motion

The SANS 2025 SOC Survey is a reality check: despite years of investment in shiny new tools and all the talk of AI and automation, most security teams are stuck in firefighting mode, drowning in unstructured data, and burning out talent. The tools may be new, but under the hood, most SOCs still struggle with the same structural issues they were five years ago: reactive workflows, manual processes, and underwhelming AI adoption.

How Outsourcing and Automation Can Help Australian and New Zealand Organizations Plug the Cybersecurity Skills Gap

Organizations across Australia and New Zealand are increasingly confronted with the challenge of bridging the cybersecurity talent shortage with 69 per cent of ICT professional occupations in shortage, a gap that compounds concern as the complexity of cyberthreats continues to evolve. Faced with a finite talent pool, businesses must find innovative ways to maintain their security posture without sacrificing operational efficiency or increasing strain on their resources.
