"Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are under unprecedented pressure. According to SACR's AI-SOC Market Landscape 2025, the average organization now faces around 960 alerts per day, while large enterprises manage more than 3,000 alerts daily from an average of 28 different tools. Nearly 40% of those alerts go uninvestigated, and 61% of security teams admit to overlooking alerts that later proved critical."
"The takeaway is clear: the traditional SOC model can't keep up. AI has now moved from experimentation to execution inside the SOC. 88% of organizations that don't yet run an AI-driven SOC plan to evaluate or deploy one within the next year. But as more vendors promote "AI-powered SOC automation," the challenge for security leaders has shifted from awareness to evaluation."
Security Operations Centers face unprecedented volumes of alerts—averaging about 960 per organization daily and over 3,000 for large enterprises—leading to high rates of uninvestigated alerts and missed critical events. AI adoption in SOCs has moved from experimentation to active deployment, with most organizations planning evaluations or rollouts. Modern SOCs replace static rules and manual triage with AI-augmented workflows where analysts oversee outcomes, validate AI decisions, and set automation policies. Leaders must shift mindset to trust AI as an assistant rather than a replacement. Evaluation of AI-SOC platforms requires measuring real impact, understanding architectures, implementation models, risks, and phased adoption strategies.
