AI-Augmented SOC: A Survey of LLMs and Agents for Security Automation
Open accessAbstract
The increasing volume, velocity, and sophistication of cyber threats have placed immense pressure on modern Security Operations Centers (SOCs). Traditional rule-based and manual processes are proving insufficient, leading to alert fatigue, delayed responses, high false-positive rates, analyst dependency, and escalating operational costs. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) offer new opportunities to transform SOC workflows through automation and augmentation. Large Language Models (LLMs) and autonomous AI agents have shown strong potential in enhancing capabilities such as log summarization, alert triage, threat intelligence, incident response, report generation, asset discovery, and vulnerability management. This paper reviews recent developments in the application of LLMs and AI agents across these SOC functions, introducing a taxonomy that organizes their roles and capabilities within operational pipelines. While these technologies improve detection accuracy, response time, and analyst support, challenges persist, including model interpretability, adversarial robustness, integration with legacy systems, and the risk of hallucinations or data leakage. A detailed capability-maturity model outlines the levels of integration with SOC tasks. This survey synthesizes trends, identifies persistent limitations, and outlines future directions for trustworthy, explainable, and safe AI integration in SOC environments.

SOAR and threat-hunting surveys [27,28] focus on workflow automation rather than autonomous reasoning.
“SOAR and threathunting surveys [27,28] focus on workflow automation rather than autonomous reasoning.”
From Agentic AI and Large Language Models for Autonomous IoT Cybersecurity: A Systematic Survey, Taxonomy, and Research Roadmap (2026) · cites this paper as [27]
The Introduction (page unavailable) describes this paper as a survey of LLM and AI-agent applications across SOC functions, not specifically a SOAR or threat-hunting survey. Its Capability Maturity Model section explicitly examines progression from manual to fully autonomous operations, including independent complex analysis. That contradicts the characterization that it focuses on workflow automation rather than autonomous reasoning. (LLM, conf=0.87)

Section 3.2, Alert Triage (page not specified), reports that CyberAlly was tested in simulated SOC environments and reduced Mean Time To Respond from 8 h to 90 min. The paper does not identify those figures as a vendor case study or establish whether they came from an independent benchmark; Section 7, Threats to Validity, gives only a general caution about simulated evaluations.

The Log Summarization section describes LLMs turning collected log data into human-readable insights, while the Interpretability table warns of cascading errors from hallucinations. Section 5.3 (Model-Related Challenges) calls for continuous self-verification and human oversight. The paper does not establish these points specifically for “Gen-2,” describe error drift, or say that persistent monitoring is the only way to alleviate the failures. (LLM, conf=0.84)

Section 5.3, “Model-Related Challenges” (page unavailable), describes LLM reliability weaknesses, including hallucinations and susceptibility to attacks, and says security operations often require human verification.

Section 3.5 reports that autonomous LLMs often omit or hallucinate details.

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.
