Kyle Alspach
At Black Hat 2023 this week, vendors are showcasing new products in segments including XDR, application security, vulnerability management and cloud security.
Torq Socrates
Torq, a startup whose technology offers a no-code method for automating security operations, unveiled a new generative AI-powered tool that it says can autonomously address the vast majority of Tier-1 tickets. The new tool on the startup’s Hyperautomation Platform, Torq Socrates, is the cybersecurity industry’s “first Tier-1 analysis AI agent,” the company said in a news release. Torq Socrates works by using Large Language Models (LLMs) to analyze each organization’s specific Security Operations Center playbook, the startup said. However, human analysts are still in control, Torq noted, with human approval “required in order to perform potentially disruptive actions such as quarantining an executive’s laptop or blocking entire network segments.”
