Swimlane Inc., leader in agentic artificial intelligence automation for cybersecurity, today announced a new role in its security analyst playbook with an AI security operating center operated by proactive agents instead of reactive assistants.<\/p>\n

The company said the new AI SOC represents a shift in security thinking by putting \u201cdeep agents\u201d in the trenches where they handle the cognitive load, but remain auditable and transparent, keeping enterprises and startups prepared for what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n

\u201cDeep agents tackle tough, complex problems with methodical reasoning, while expert agents quickly handle specific, skilled tasks,\u201d said Cody Cornell, co-Founder and chief executive of Swimlane.<\/p>\n

The new solution comes with over 100 knowledge base articles out-of-the-box rooted in best practices and organizational context. The underlying network of agents provides its own guardrails for trustworthy action at scale and customers maintain complete control to review, modify and rebuild AI-generated plans and workflows \u2013 every action is explainable and auditable.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith Swimlane AI SOC, we\u2019re augmenting our analysts with intelligent automation that improves efficiency, sharpens focus, and strengthens our ability to proactively counter cyber threats,\u201d said LeAnn Cary, vice president and practice leader of cybersecurity solutions integrator Optiv Security Inc.\u2019s Advanced Fusion Center.<\/p>\n

They could quickly take big data analysis of anomalies and patterns in unstructured data and sift through it to \u201csee\u201d unlikely or stand-out behaviors in traffic that didn\u2019t fit.<\/p>\n

However, the first uses of large language models began as assistants, which were conversational interfaces and analysis tools set atop preexisting security instrumentation used as a layer, running only when called on. The advent of agents has…<\/p>\n
