MicrosoftMost SOC teams automate tasks. The winning teams automate decisions.
If your goal is to create an Autonomous SOC that actually reduces mean time to respond and lowers analyst burnout, don’t start by wiring more tools together. Start by choosing the right abstraction level: let Azure provide telemetry and enforcement, and build a reasoning layer that makes decisions, explains them, and acts when it’s safe.

Humans govern and approve. AI investigates, correlates, recommends — and where safe, acts.
Why this matters
Most projects fail because they try to automate everything. You don’t need 100% automation; you need the right 80% that delivers predictable outcomes, again and again. Focus on identity compromise, endpoint malware, suspicious sign-ins, lateral movement, and data-exfil indicators. Solve those cleanly and you change the game.
