Abstract

The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in Security Operations Centers (SOCs) has created both opportunities and challenges for cybersecurity teams. This paper explores the effects of the levels of AI automation on trust of the analysts, decision-making quality, and skill development. The study delves into three main areas: alert trust, automation bias, and skill adaptation. Using an experimental SOC simulator, participants had to use AI detection tools that generated alerts with varied prediction accuracy to examine the effects on trust and performance. Findings suggest that moderate automation promotes healthy trust and improved decision-making accuracy, while high automation could induce excessive reliance and less alertness. Feedback also aids independent detection skill and confidence in analysts. These studies illustrate the imperative to design trust-sensitive adaptive training systems that can allow for better analyst-AI collaboration in cybersecurity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
