SOCs don’t struggle with visibility anymore; they’re buried in it. This report from Prophet Security puts hard numbers behind what many in the field already see: the alert problem has reached breaking point, and AI is being applied first where it matters most triage, investigation, and tuning. It captures both the urgency and the practical direction of where SecOps is heading.
A few of the findings from the research survey include:
- Average of 960 alerts generated daily
- 40% of which are never investigated
- 57% companies suppress detection rules
- 55% use AI for alert triage & investigations.
The 30+ page report includes responses from a mix of CISOs, SecOps VP/Directors, SIRT/Threat Mgrs, and SOC analysts/engineers across a variety of industry segments at organization sizes ranging from 1000+ to more than 20,000+. The report is divided into three main areas: The Alert Problem, The Pain in Organizations and the AI SOC Shift.
The report is more than a collection of statistics, its serves as a call to action with insights to arm security teams with guidance to navigate another transformative era in security. With recent incidents such as the Palo Alto data breach, teams who implement AI in the SOC are better prepared to focus their skills/time on proactive threat hunting and investigations.
