Traditional SOC workflows built around log ingestion, rule-based alerting, and manual triage are struggling to keep pace with modern threats. This white paper introduces the Autonomous SOC: a recursive, human-centered operating model powered by verdict-first AI, Verdict Signal Checks, structured evaluation, and cost-aware automation. It explains how AI agents can validate alerts, gather context, summarize cases, and support analysts while preserving explainability and oversight. The paper also explores the changing role of SOC analysts, showing how teams can move from reactive investigation to AI supervision, detection tuning, strategic analysis, and proactive defense.
