Question 5

How is CounterShadow different from other so-called agentic SOC platforms?

Accepted Answer

Most so-called agentic SOC platforms are superficial integrations with generic large language models, built by organizations with little to no experience in cybersecurity. These platforms simply pass alert and evidence data to off-the-shelf AI models, then present the output in a security-looking interface. CounterShadow is fundamentally different. Our team comprises cybersecurity veterans with over 40 years of experience building enterprise-grade security tools for global organizations. This deep domain knowledge has been embedded into every aspect of AMI, our bespoke AI engine. AMI was purpose-built from the ground up to operate like a seasoned SOC analyst. It doesn't just process alerts—it deeply understands the context of the threat and the unique environment of your organization. Trained by human security analysts, AMI leverages a custom-built decision engine to dynamically analyze and respond to threats. It only interacts with large language models when appropriate, ensuring it prioritizes accuracy, relevance, and enterprise-grade performance. With CounterShadow, you're not just getting a tool—you're gaining the expertise of a world-class SOC analyst, automated and always-on.
