See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo AI in security operations is moving fast. Agent capabilities are compounding, and the conversation has shifted from whether AI belongs in the SOC to how much it can take on alongside human analysts. But every serious conversation with a CISO eventually lands on the same question: can I trust it? Trust isn’t a model problem. It’s a grounding problem.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo 92% of security leaders say something is actively reducing their trust in AI within the SOC. These aren’t skeptics, they’re people who have already adopted AI and believe in its ability to enhance security operations. We know from the 2026 AI SOC Leadership Report that AI is already widely adopted in the SOC, with 94% of organizations using it in some capacity.

Many security functions today still rely heavily on humans for detection, triage, and response, often by design. But as environments grow more complex and alert volumes explode, it raises a hard question: Can this approach scale on its own? Adopting AI in security operations isn’t just about adding tools. It means rethinking the SOC operating model itself — roles, workflows, and team structures. Here’s why, and how.

Every security vendor shipping an AI product in 2026 makes the same promises. Faster triage. Shorter response times. Fewer false positives. Reclaimed analyst hours. But, six months after deployment, most security leaders still cannot answer a straightforward question from the board: Is this thing actually working?

KuppingerCole Analysts is the global analyst firm that sets the benchmark for cybersecurity technology evaluations.

Ask most security leaders what keeps them up at night, and they’ll probably mention something about alert volume, talent gaps, or the evolution and speed of attacks. What they’re less likely to say — but should — is this: the biggest security failures aren’t happening because organizations lack tools. They’re happening in the gaps between them.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo Security operations teams have never had more technology at their disposal… and they’ve never been more overwhelmed by it. The average SOC is now running 7 AI-powered solutions. 10% are managing 10 or more. And across the broader enterprise, organizations deploy an average of 83 security tools from 29 vendors, according to IBM research.
