Forget drawn-out SOAR integrations, endless proof-of-concepts, and prolonged vendor lock-ins. Most cybersecurity teams have the tools — what’s missing is an integration platform and reliable guidance that can rapidly tie it all together and deliver tangible results.
Torq is designed precisely for that: we blend AI-native capabilities, no-code Hyperautomation, and unparalleled success enablement to transform your security operations into a fully autonomous, modern SOC within just three months.
Here’s a step-by-step timeline on exactly how Torq makes it happen.
What is a Modern SOC?
A modern SOC or next-gen SOC (Security Operations Center) is fast, flexible, and autonomous. It doesn’t rely on analysts manually chasing every alert or stitching together siloed tools. Instead, it blends:
- AI-powered decision making
- Real-time, automated triage and response
- Integrated, end-to-end case management
- No-code workflows anyone on the team can build
A modern SOC is scalable, sustainable, and proactive. And with Torq, it’s only 90 days away.
30 Days: Build the Foundation
During the first month, your primary focus will be laying the groundwork for SOC transformation. A dedicated Torq team, including a Customer Success Manager (CSM), Solutions Architect (SA), and Professional Services (PS) specialist, will collaborate closely with your team to establish the technical foundation.
You’ll begin by defining success criteria, aligning key stakeholders, configuring SSO, provisioning access, and prioritizing critical workflows such as phishing triage, endpoint detection and response (EDR), and cloud security alerts.
By the end of this initial phase, you’ll have launched your first production-ready automations, significantly reducing analyst workloads. Your team will also learn to navigate the Torq platform, interpret errors, and debug workflows. Integration with essential tools, including Slack, Jira, AWS, and Okta, will ensure a streamlined experience, enabling immediate operational efficiency and stakeholder alignment.
Key Outcomes:
- Tier-1 analyst workload begins to decline
- First automations deployed and delivering value
- Platform familiarity achieved across the builder team
- Stakeholder alignment on 90-day roadmap
60 Days: Optimize Processes and Introduce Socrates
In the second month, your automation initiatives will expand to cover advanced cybersecurity use cases, including identity and access management (IAM), threat intelligence enrichment, and monitoring suspicious user behaviors.
You’ll be introduced to Socrates, Torq’s AI-driven SOC Analyst, which orchestrates our team of AI Agents to manage Tier-1 alert triage and case enrichment autonomously. Socrates will help your team reduce noise and false positives by intelligently prioritizing alerts based on severity and context.
Throughout this period, your team will receive targeted training on modular workflow design, advanced automation logic, and effective case management practices. This training empowers your analysts to build, refine, and optimize automation workflows independently. By the end of the month, your SOC will experience faster response times, improved analyst productivity, and significantly reduced alert fatigue.
Key Outcomes:
- Builder teams creating and optimizing workflows independently
- Alert fatigue reduced through smarter case thresholds
- Performance benchmarks established per use case
- Socrates contributes measurable value in daily operations
90 Days: Achieve Full SOC Autonomy
By the third month, your SOC will transition fully into a proactive, autonomous model powered by Socrates, which will manage incident lifecycles from initial detection and triage through resolution and documentation. Analysts will shift away from manual, repetitive tasks to strategic oversight, focusing exclusively on high-priority incidents and deeper threat investigations. Performance metrics like MTTD and MTTR will be clearly defined and measurable.
As this transformative phase concludes, your team will finalize Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), ensuring scalability, sustainability, and continuous improvement within your SOC. We’ll work with you to present a detailed QBR that highlights your measurable achievements and clear ROI to executive stakeholders.
Ultimately, you’ll reach an operational state where 100% of Tier-1 alerts are autonomously handled, significantly enhancing your SOC’s agility, efficiency, and overall security posture.
Key Outcomes:
- Up to 100% of Tier-1 alerts fully automated from triage to resolution
- Strategic shift in analyst focus — from reaction to oversight
- Clear ROI and automation impact communicated to exec stakeholders
- Platform maturity with roadmap alignment
With Torq’s AI-powered Hyperautomated workflows, end-to-end case management, and real-time triage and response — any organization can achieve the promise of full SOC autonomy. This 90 day roadmap serves as a baseline, while Torq’s dedicated team of engineers, architects, and customer success managers work with you to build out a customized deployment strategy that fit your goals, environment and needs.
And if 90 days is too long, that’s fine too — just ask Carvana: “Torq Agentic AI now handles 100% of Carvana’s Tier-1 security alerts and has automated 41 different runbooks within just one month of deployment.”
See how more of Torq customers hit full autonomy in 90 days — or less.

7 Core Capabilities of a Modern SOC — Solved by Torq
1. Threat Intelligence
A modern SOC is predictive, identifying threats before they strike by leveraging threat hunting, IOC correlation, and TTP analysis.
Torq automates threat hunting and threat intelligence enrichment across your SIEM, EDR, and threat intelligence platforms, surfacing actionable indicators and accelerating response across every workflow.
2. Continuous Monitoring
A true modern SOC operates 24/7/365, monitoring everything from cloud infrastructure to user behavior.
Torq seamlessly ingests signals across your entire attack surface and ensures nonstop alert intake, correlation, and escalation — without analyst burnout.
3. Proactive Cyber Threat Detection
Modern adversaries hide in plain sight, which is why your SOC must correlate signals across every tool.
Torq’s agentic AI and multi-tool integration capabilities enable proactive detection and response across SIEM, EDR, cloud, IAM, and beyond.
4. Incident Response Automation
Speed is everything in security operations — the longer an incident lingers, the more it costs.
Torq automates every phase of incident response — from alert triage to remediation — with AI Agents like Socrates executing workflows in seconds.
5. Post-Incident Review
Recovery from a breach isn’t enough — your SOC needs to learn, improve, and harden.
Torq automatically documents the full case lifecycle and feeds metrics into structured post-incident reviews, so your SOC evolves with every alert.
6. Reporting and Compliance
Today’s security operations center must deliver visibility and meet compliance requirements without manual effort.
Torq captures real-time data across all workflows and playbooks, outputs audit-ready logs, and maps metrics to standards like NIST, GDPR, and HIPAA.
7. Automation and Orchestration
Automation isn’t optional anymore — it’s how modern SOCs scale.
Torq’s drag-and-drop builder, 250+ integrations, and modular design let your team orchestrate workflows and auto-remediation without writing a single line of code.
