Agentic SOC: The Art of the Possible in Autonomous Security Operations
As cyber threats grow in scale and sophistication, Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are evolving into intelligent, autonomous systems. This panel explores the emergence of AI-driven, agentic SOCs—as envisioned in ONUG’s Security & Governance pillar—that can proactively detect, analyze, and respond to threats with minimal human intervention.
Panelists will showcase early implementations of these next-gen SOCs and discuss the real-world feasibility of AI-based threat hunting, incident response orchestration, and security policy automation. The session will also address critical governance challenges, including how to build trust in autonomous systems, mitigate false positives, and defend against adversarial manipulation.
Key Takeaways:
-What’s possible today with AI in SOCs—and what’s still aspirational
-How agentic systems are reshaping threat detection and response
-Governance strategies to ensure safe, reliable, and ethical AI use in cybersecurity
