How AI is changing Detection Engineering & SOC Operations?

AI is revolutionizing many things, but how does it impact detection engineering and SOC teams? In this episode, we sit down withDylan Williams, a cybersecurity practitioner with nearly a decade of experience in blue team operations and detection engineering. We speak about how AI is reshaping threat detection and response, the future role of detection engineers in an AI-driven world, can AI reduce false positives and speed up investigations, the difference between automation vs. agentic AI in security and practical AI tools you can use right now in detection & response
