The Agentic SOC is not a future roadmap, it is a present direction: Robert Pizzari, Splunk
As AI reshapes the cybersecurity landscape, Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are under growing pressure to defend against threats that now move at machine speed. Traditional security models, built around fragmented tools, manual workflows, and alert-heavy operations, are struggling to keep pace with increasingly autonomous and AI-enabled attacks. In response, enterprises are beginning to rethink the SOC itself — not as a reactive function, but as an intelligent, adaptive, and continuously learning security operation.
In this interaction with Express Computer, Robert Pizzari, Group Vice President – Asia at Splunk discusses how Splunk is building what it calls the “Agentic SOC” — a model that combines high-fidelity data, AI-native automation, and human oversight to create faster, more resilient security operations. He explains why the future of cybersecurity will depend not just on AI itself, but on how effectively organisations unify data, context, and decision-making across the enterprise.
