Google announced the completion of its Wiz acquisition and unveiled an agentic SOC strategy powered by newest Gemini models. New agentic automation in Google Security Operations (now in preview) includes a Triage and Investigation agent that autonomously investigates alerts, gathers evidence, and provides verdicts with comprehensive explanations. Google Threat Intelligence also received agentic upgrades shifting data synthesis and artifact triage to specialized AI agents. Key stat: adversaries have collapsed defender intervention windows to 22 seconds, making autonomous SOC agents an operational necessity.
