See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo The AI SOC category just got its definitive race assessment, and Torq is at the front. In the May 2026 Gartner report AI Vendor Race: Torq Is the Company to Beat in AI SOC Agents for Threat Investigation (Document ID: G00855833), Gartner names Torq the Company to Beat.

Security automation used to mean building a playbook. Someone on the team mapped out a workflow, connected a few tools, and watched it run on the alert types it was designed for. That worked for a while, in a different environment than the one security teams operate in today.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo AI in security operations is moving fast. Agent capabilities are compounding, and the conversation has shifted from whether AI belongs in the SOC to how much it can take on alongside human analysts. But every serious conversation with a CISO eventually lands on the same question: can I trust it? Trust isn’t a model problem. It’s a grounding problem.

See how Torq harnesses AI in your SOC to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats faster. Request a Demo 92% of security leaders say something is actively reducing their trust in AI within the SOC. These aren’t skeptics, they’re people who have already adopted AI and believe in its ability to enhance security operations. We know from the 2026 AI SOC Leadership Report that AI is already widely adopted in the SOC, with 94% of organizations using it in some capacity.

Many security functions today still rely heavily on humans for detection, triage, and response, often by design. But as environments grow more complex and alert volumes explode, it raises a hard question: Can this approach scale on its own? Adopting AI in security operations isn’t just about adding tools. It means rethinking the SOC operating model itself — roles, workflows, and team structures. Here’s why, and how.
