The SOC is broken. Not because of a lack of talent or effort, but because human capacity does not scale. Alert volumes keep rising. Attacks move faster. And the operating model still assumes analysts will investigate most of what comes in, which means the vast majority of alerts never get looked at.
Our AI SOC Report 2026, based on analysis of 25 million alerts across our global customer base, put a sharp number on the problem. Over 60% of alerts are never reviewed by SOC and MDR teams. Nearly 1% of all incidents trace back to alerts classified at the lowest severity levels, signals most teams never touch. With average enterprises generating around 450,000 alerts annually, that equates to roughly one real threat per week hiding in the backlog, undetected.
That is not a tool problem. It is an operating model problem.
On April 27, we are bringing together the security leaders who are doing something about it.

What is AI SOC Live
AI SOC Live is a monthly, online event where security leaders discuss the latest issues facing the cyber industry. This month, AI SOC Live will be a full-day, invitation-only event at the Nasdaq in New York City. It is designed for CISOs, security directors, SOC managers, and MSSPs who are not just watching AI transform security operations from the sidelines, but are in the middle of it, making decisions about how their teams operate, what they invest in, and where the humans actually need to be.
This event is a full day of sessions, panels, and conversations built around the people, processes, and technology required to run a world-class SOC in 2026.
Who you will hear from at AI SOC Live Nasdaq
The speaker lineup reflects how seriously we have curated this event.
Itai Tevet, CEO and Founder of Intezer, will open the day with a session on the new SOC operating model, what it means when AI executes investigation and humans supervise outcomes, and why that shift changes security results structurally, not incrementally.
Alon Cohen, Founder and Executive Chairman of both Intezer and CyberArk, will speak to the broader impact of AI on security, drawing on decades of experience building foundational security companies.
Pavi Ramamurthy, Global CISO & CIO at Blackhawk Network as well as a founding member of the Professional Association of CISOs, and a venture advisor at YL Ventures. She will be speaking about the role of humans in the SOC.
David Spark, Founder and Executive Producer of the CISO Series Podcast, will host a live recording of the show featuring Nick Vigier, CISO at Oscar Health, digging into AI SOC beyond the hype.
You will also hear from CISOs at WCG Clinical, and ION Group, alongside practitioners from Realm Security, Legato Security, Upwind Security, and Monad. Sessions cover cloud security for the AI era, the blueprint for AI SOC success, and what every CISO needs to manage not only their security, but their executive board as well.
And Mitchem Boles, Field CISO at Intezer, and Marcus Mingo, Detection Engineer at Intezer, will be there all day, available for the kind of real, technical conversations that rarely happen at larger conferences. See the full list of speakers.
What the day looks like
The agenda moves quickly and stays practical.
The morning opens with sessions on the new operating model and AI’s impact on security, followed by a CISO panel on the role of humans in the SOC and a session from Realm Security on building a data-first AI SOC. After a working lunch with interactive product demos, the afternoon covers cloud security, a live CISO Series recording, and a panel on advancing SOC outcomes at the C-suite level.
The day closes with a photo opportunity in front of the iconic Nasdaq billboard, followed by a cocktail reception overlooking New York City.
Attendees also earn CPE credits through the event’s partnership with ISC2.
Why this conversation matters now
The 2026 data makes the stakes clear. Our report found that more than half of confirmed compromised endpoints had been marked as “mitigated” by the EDR vendor, meaning teams believed those machines were clean when they were not.
The gap between what organizations believe is covered and what is actually investigated is where real risk lives. Closing that gap requires a different operating model, one where AI investigates every alert, including the low-severity signals that human teams deprioritize, and humans supervise outcomes instead of grinding through queues.
That is the conversation happening at AI SOC Live.
Who should attend
This event is designed for CISOs, VPs and Directors of Information Security, SOC managers, and MSSPs from large enterprises who are responsible for security strategy, risk decisions, and operational outcomes. Whether you are evaluating AI for the first time or scaling capabilities you already have deployed, the sessions and conversations are built for leaders making real decisions, not attendees collecting swag.
Space is limited and invitations are by request.
