Breaking the SOC triangle: How AI reshapes security operations trade-offs (opens in new tab)

A simple framework has always governed security operations that I call the SOC Triangle. It is a balance between quality, consistency and cost efficiency. Every SOC operates within it. Push for higher-quality investigations, deeper analysis, richer context, fewer missed signals and you pay for it in time and expertise. Standardize workflows to ensure consistency across every alert, and you often lose the flexibility needed to handle real-world complexity and nuance. Optimize for cost efficien...
