Built on the Aurora® Superintelligence Platform, the Aurora Agentic SOC combines Arctic Wolf’s pioneering Concierge Experience™ with turnkey agentic AI, significantly reducing the cost, complexity, and uncertainty that are slowing AI adoption across cybersecurity teams.
Ready-made solution
Security leaders know that the industry is at an inflection point. AI-powered attackers are placing increasing pressure on already stretched IT and security teams, fueling burnout and turnover. Agentic AI has the potential to solve this problem, but operationalising it remains one of the most difficult challenges in cybersecurity today. Only 30 percent of cybersecurity teams have integrated AI security tools into operations, according to a recent survey by ISC2.
Furthermore, industry data demonstrates that organizations lack the necessary skillsets to unlock the technology’s full potential. Integrating AI in security operations in a meaningful way requires major investments in AI teams, tools, and models while also adding operational burden across IT, security and operations teams who need to build, operate and govern the technology stack. Without a ready-made solution that works out of the box, teams will continue to be outpaced by adversaries in an accelerating threat landscape, and agentic SOC adoption will never fully take off across the industry.
Automating SOC workflows
Today, Arctic Wolf is solving this problem with the launch of the Aurora Agentic SOC™, a fully turnkey solution. The Aurora SOC introduces a new model for security operations—outperforming the legacy human-led approach while delivering industry-pioneer ROI and immediate time to value.
At Arctic Wolf, all SOC workflows are powered by agent-led operations through the Swarm of Experts™, which implements a three-tier agentic model. Because all agents are part of the swarm, they run on and inherit the safety, reliability and trust features of the Aurora Superintelligence Platform. The Swarm of Experts is made up of three types of agents—Oversight Agents, Authoritative Agents, and Process Agents—each designed to play a specific role in managing, executing, and automating SOC workflows.
- Oversight Agents —the Swarm Orchestrator and the Swarm Judge — oversee operations, coordinate activity and validate results.
- Authoritative Agents use their domain expertise to plan, adapt and execute SOC tasks end-to-end, while keeping humans both in the loop and on the loop. At launch, the following Authoritative Agents have been released: triage, investigation, response, threat hunting, proactive security, risk management, and context management.
- Process Agents perform agentic SOAR tasks, driving efficiency and predictability by automating repetitive, well-understood SOC tasks. At launch, Arctic Wolf has hundreds of process agents working to eliminate toil for analysts so they can spend more time focusing on high-value and proactive work.
Unverified AI actions
Arctic Wolf’s turnkey Agentic SOC delivers all agentic capabilities as built-in features, eliminating the need for teams to plan, build, or operate their own agentic SOC. This not only simplifies and accelerates adoption but also brings the intelligence, data, and expertise of the world’s largest commercial SOC into a single deployment—driving fast, efficient, and reliable outcomes.
Customers gain the full benefits of agentic security—reasoning, orchestration, autonomy—without needing to configure anything or worry about unverified AI actions. Because the AI is native to the platform, not bolted on, teams avoid the complexity and unpredictable costs of a do-it-yourself approach.
