Autonomous SOC platforms can investigate alerts with 60+ forensic checks in under a minute for $0.27 per alert, providing 10x cost reduction and deeper threat detection. The shift from human-centric to compute-based triage eliminates queue backlogs, scales infinitely during alert spikes, and reduces false negatives from 25% to under 1% while maintaining full visibility and control over detection logic. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
