When the Whole Company Adopts AI: What It Does to Your SOC

AI-related activity in enterprise SOCs is rising rapidly, but it still makes up only a tiny share of alerts and is overwhelmingly noise rather than real attacks.

Keypoints

  • AI-related alerts are only 0.43% of SOC volume, but they are growing quickly.
