A respected security executive with more than 20 years of leadership experience, John previously served as CISO at Virgin Atlantic, where he led a multi-year transformation deploying the Torq AI SOC Platform to modernize cyber operations.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo The AI SOC is cybersecurity’s fastest-growing category, and for very good reason. Machine-speed threats demand machine-speed responses, and the $82.45 billion market forming around this reality reflects just how urgent that need has become. The Torq AI SOC Platform delivers agentic insights and the ability to streamline action across the full security stack.

KuppingerCole Analysts is the global analyst firm that sets the benchmark for cybersecurity technology evaluations.

Ask most security leaders what keeps them up at night, and they’ll probably mention something about alert volume, talent gaps, or the evolution and speed of attacks. What they’re less likely to say — but should — is this: the biggest security failures aren’t happening because organizations lack tools. They’re happening in the gaps between them.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo Security operations teams have never had more technology at their disposal… and they’ve never been more overwhelmed by it. The average SOC is now running 7 AI-powered solutions. 10% are managing 10 or more. And across the broader enterprise, organizations deploy an average of 83 security tools from 29 vendors, according to IBM research.

The AI SOC has arrived. According to the 2026 AI SOC Leadership Report, 94% of organizations are using AI in the SOC in some capacity. The question in 2026 is no longer whether to adopt AI-driven SOC automation, but rather how to do so. Is the architecture behind that adoption actually working?

Alert volumes are higher than ever. Client budgets are not. For managed security service providers, that math doesn’t work and no amount of hiring will fix it.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo I recently sat between two people who think about the AI SOC operations from completely different angles — and spent 50 minutes watching them land in the same place.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo When we started building Torq four years ago, we had a thesis: the SOC was broken, and automation — real automation, not another tool bolted onto the stack — was the way to fix it. AI has since changed the game entirely. But has it streamlined the SOC, or introduced new complexity? We wanted to find out.
