The Economics of an Agentic SOC: How AI Reduces Security Operations Costs

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo This article was originally published on Security Info Watch. Running a SOC has never been cheap — but in 2026, it’s become unsustainable. The combination of surging alert volumes, rising labor costs, sprawling tool stacks, and skyrocketing breach expenses has pushed the traditional model to the breaking point.

Futureproofing Tines: Fair share orchestration

Fair-share orchestration of resources in a tenant, especially in a multi-tenant context is a complex, multifaceted issue. It involves ensuring equitable access to shared resources, preventing system overload, and maintaining optimal performance across all customer workflows. As more customers build and trust Tines with their most important workflows, (which sees the platform handle over a billion automated actions per week), we recognized that we needed to ensure our platform's scalability.

Voice of Security 2026: AI is everywhere yet manual work persists

AI adoption in security has soared. But for many teams, manual work and burnout remain stubbornly high. To understand why, and what security teams must do next, we partnered with Sapio research to survey more than 1,800 security leaders and practitioners worldwide for our Voice of Security 2026 report. We wanted to learn how teams are using AI and automation, how the role of security is evolving, and how professionals believe AI will impact their careers. The data is revealing.

How AI is boosting Automation Processes

Artificial intelligence seemingly came out of nowhere a couple of years ago, and now most of us use it in some capacity, especially if we are business owners, but the fact is, AI did not really come out of nowhere - it was years in the development and the next natural step to technology and automation processes that were already in place.

Futureproofing Tines: Partitioning a 17TB table in PostgreSQL

At Tines, we recently faced a significant engineering challenge: our output_payloads table in PostgreSQL was rapidly approaching 17TB on our largest cloud cluster, with no signs of slowing down. Once a table reaches PostgreSQL’s 32TB table size limit, it will stop accepting writes. This table holds event data, in the form of arbitrary JSON, which is critical to powering Tines workflows. Given the criticality of the data, we couldn’t risk any disruptions to it.

10 AI SOC Benefits That Actually Transform Security Operations

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo Your SOC is drowning. Industry estimates suggest that up to 60% of SOC analyst time is spent on Tier 1 triage, leaving less time for addressing real threats. According to Splunk’s State of Security 2025 report, 59% of security teams report being overwhelmed by too many alerts, and 55% waste precious hours chasing false positives.
