Tier 0 SOC Agent: An AI-Driven Approach to Automated Alert Triage in Cyber Security Operations Centers

Tuesday July 28, 2026 11:30am - 11:45am BST

Aldgate

Authors - Majed Rahman, Mashrur Wasek, Faisal Quader Abstract - A typical Security Operations Center (SOC) receives 500– 10,000 alerts a day, 80–95% of them false alarms, but a Tier 1 analyst can only meaningfully look at 20–30 in a shift. We present Tier 0 SOC Agent, an AI layer that triages every alert before a human sees it. For each alert, the agent runs a four-phase loop (plan,...
