Empowering the Future of SOC: Multi layered AI-Powered Cybersecurity: In the midst of mounting pressure on cybersecurity to defend against increasingly sophisticated attacks and navigate a shortage of talent within the industry, our session showcases the challenges and opportunities faced. We draw upon our insights from observing and investigating threats throughout 2023, providing a comprehensive overview while casting our gaze forward to the evolving threat landscape of 2024. Leveraging telemetry data collected from tens of millions of endpoints, we offer valuable perspectives on emerging cyber threats and trends. Central to our discussion is the integration of AI-powered cybersecurity technology into Security Operations Centers (SOCs) as a strategic response to these challenges. By harnessing the capabilities of AI, organisations can bolster their defenses and address the talent shortage by automating key processes within their SOC. We explore how SentinelOne's AI-powered platform simplifies data ingestion, conducts advanced analysis, prioritises incidents, and streamlines workflows, thereby enabling SOC teams to effectively combat cyber threats with agility and precision. Join us as we delve into the practical applications of AI in cybersecurity, providing actionable insights and strategies to fortify your organisation's defenses and navigate the evolving threat landscape with confidence.
