Amir Kessler is Director of Product Management at Torq, where he leads the Context Engine and Data Fabric, the layer that gives the AI SOC Platform the organizational context it needs to investigate and act. He joined Torq with its acquisition of Jit, where he was VP of Product. Amir has spent more than 15 years in cyber, starting in IDF intelligence and going on to lead product teams at several security companies. Before Jit became part of Torq, we built our product on one bet.

Chris Kissel, Vice President of IDC Security & Trust, just drew a line in the sand for the AI SOC category with one simple sentence: “Vendors that can show their agents reason transparently, act within defined guardrails, and improve with each investigation will define this category. The rest will be measured against them.” We couldn’t agree more.

David Melamed is Head of Emerging Technologies at Torq. He joined through Torq’s acquisition of Jit, which he co-founded and has led as CTO since 2020, building agentic security on a production Context Graph.

Every vendor in this category now says the same word: agentic. I understand why. It’s what the market wants to hear. But when you’re the one signing the contract, “agentic” tells you almost nothing. I’ve sat on the buying side of enough of these conversations to know that the label and the capability are often two very different things.

DevOps moves fast by design. Continuous integration, automated deployments, and infrastructure-as-code let development teams ship features in hours rather than weeks. Security teams have a real opportunity here: when they build workflows that integrate directly into the development process, they gain coverage and response speed that manual, disconnected approaches leave on the table.
  |  By Torq
Security teams have always had to justify their budgets, and the bar for that justification keeps rising. Boards and CFOs want proof that security spending delivers measurable business value: reduced risk translated into financial language. That pressure has made cybersecurity ROI calculators a standard part of the security leader’s toolkit, a way to convert threat prevention, automation efficiency, and incident response improvements into the numbers executives understand.

Businesses of all types, and across all verticals, have gone digital-first. This shift enables many benefits, such as greater scalability and speed. But it also amplifies the security and compliance challenges that arise from digital systems. For CISOs, this shift amplifies the need to apply the same level of automation, speed, and business-wide accessibility for security that digitization has brought to other aspects of the business. In short, modern businesses need to adopt a digital-first approach to SecOps itself.
