Newer products use AI agents for the investigation, while automation platforms (SOAR) run the response steps, such as isolating a laptop or resetting an account.","Most security teams cannot look at every alert, so alerts get tuned away or left to age, and attackers live in that gap. Automating the first investigation means every alert is looked at within minutes, analysts spend their time on confirmed incidents, and response is fast enough to matter. For a small team it can decide whether nights and weekends are covered at all. Judge it on accuracy and transparency, not speed alone: every verdict should show the evidence behind it.",[11,12,13,14],"What share of our alerts can it investigate end to end, and how often were its verdicts wrong in a trial on our own data?","Does every verdict show the evidence and steps behind it, so an analyst can check it?","Which actions can it take on its own, and how are they limited and approved?","Where is our data processed, is it used to train models, and how is the AI's access to our tools controlled and logged?","Risk: real attacks missed or handled too late because alert volume exceeds analyst capacity.
