The MDR market is booming. AI is everywhere in security vendor decks. And yet most SOC teams are drowning in alerts, paying for coverage they cannot see, and operating on the assumption that someone else owns the outcome when things go wrong.
Aqsa Taylor has spent the last year in direct conversation with CISOs across financial services, healthcare, and high-growth tech. She has studied real implementations and what she found is not what most vendors want you to hear.
This webinar delivers unfiltered signals from the frontlines, including where AI SOC is genuinely changing outcomes, where the hype is outpacing reality, and the critical question most security leaders have not thought to ask their MDR provider.

What you will learn
- Where AI is actually delivering, real implementation data on detection coverage, false positive reduction, and MTTR improvements that hold up outside the marketing deck.
- Where the hype ends and the gap begins; the specific use cases where AI SOC is falling short, and why the gap is widening for teams that haven't made structural changes.
- The question your MDR contract doesn't answer; a signal from CISO conversations that changes how you think about your current security operations model.
- What enterprise-grade SOC operations actually look like in 2026; without linear headcount growth, and without ceding visibility to a black box.
