Building a SOC Team in 2024 - Automation & AI

Building a SOC Team in 2024 - Automation & AI

What is the future of SOC? In this episode Ashish sat down with Allie Mellen, Principal Analyst at Forrester, to explore the current state of security operations and the evolving role of AI in cybersecurity. Allie spoke about why Cloud Detection Response (CDR) might be dead, how Generative AI is failing to live up to its hype in security use cases, and why automation will never fully replace human security analysts.

We get into the challenges faced by SOC teams today, the burnout issue among security analysts, and how adopting detection engineering and eliminating the outdated structures could transform the way security teams operate.
