(S14) (MAIN) Bell's Autonomous SOC: The Next Evolution in Cybersecurity

Faced with rising AI-driven cyber threats, traditional SOCs are reaching their limits. Bell Cyber introduces the autonomous SOC—a hybrid model combining AI, automation, and human expertise. This system detects and prioritizes threats in real time, executes automated containment actions within seconds, and adapts to evolving tactics using continuous threat intelligence. It reduces containment time to under five minutes, enhances operational consistency, and frees analysts to focus on high-value strategic tasks. The presentation also covers integration, governance, and change management challenges, and Bell’s approach to overcoming them while maintaining essential human judgment.
