What you'll learn

By the end of this course you'll be able to:

  • 5 SOC plays that ship — triage, detection augmentation, investigation, threat intel, automation
  • 3 anti-plays — AI-only triage, hallucinated threat intel, autonomous response on critical assets
  • Verification discipline on AI threat intel (Mata v. Avianca cross-domain) — human-in-the-loop on response is non-negotiable
  • Defending AI's own attack surface — 4 vectors with 4 defensive patterns
  • A 12-month SOC AI rollout with the trust trip-wires that protect the SOC and its customers

Who this is for

SOC leaders, CISO directs, detection engineers, and threat-intel managers who own SecOps capacity. Especially valuable for SOCs drowning in alert volume while incident response remains under-resourced.
