Torq Unveils the SOC Brain: The AI SOC That Learns, Not Just Remembers28.7.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
New Torq AI SOC Platform layer’s innovative capabilities learn from every security decision and historical incident, drawing conclusions from precedents and team judgments from day zero Torq, the established agentic security operations leader, today introduced Torq SOC Brain™, a new layer of the Torq AI SOC Platform that continuously learns from historical investigations, analyst decisions, and organization-specific security operations to create a unified, self-learning AI SOC.

The result is an AI SOC that grows more accurate over time—not a thin wrapper around a generic AI model. This press release features multimedi
