1 in 3 incident response leaders let AI triage alerts autonomously

New research from Securonix finds that incident response leaders are moving faster than their peers to automate security decisions, even as they encounter challenges putting AI to work.

In a survey of 1,000 cybersecurity professionals across the U.S., U.K., France and Australia, Heads of Incident Response reported:

  • 33% use fully autonomous AI for alert triage and analysis, compared with 19% overall.
  • 56% cite faster mean time to resolve as an AI success measure, compared with 33% overall.
  • 36% report technology issues during implementation, compared with 27% overall.

The findings raise questions about how quickly security teams are handing decisions to AI and whether their systems are ready to support that autonomy.
