SOC Challenges = Real + Growing Need
Enterprises are asking for a SOC solution that is better at delivering effective and consistent response to threats, faster at detecting and investigating issues, and cheaper to scale defenses on demand without scaling people.
SOC analysts face a deluge of alerts-most of which are false positives-leaving them burdened with massive datasets and manual tasks like log stitching, user validation, and ticket management, which drain resources and slow response times. Detection engineers, meanwhile, struggle with the threat coverage for cloud environments where native threat detection is often lacking and traditional SIEMs offer inadequate coverage. This forces them to write and maintain complex sets of SQL/python code, yet major detection gaps remain. Simultaneously, threat hunters are mired in manual, time-consuming workflows that impede proactive threat detection, making it difficult to stay ahead of attackers.
The well-documented shortage of skilled security professionals exacerbates these issues, making it difficult for organizations to maintain expertise across all SOC roles. As a result, SOCs risk burnout, delayed response, and increased exposure to growing threats.
Exaforce Is the Right Team to Propel the SOC
Solving these challenges requires an innovative team with concentrated backgrounds in cybersecurity, AI, and cloud operations. Exaforce's founding team unites expertise across all three - with firsthand experience leading the world's most complex SOC environments.

Industry's First Multi-Model AI Built for Security & Operations
The right AI solution for the SOC must analyze enormous volumes of logs, cloud telemetry, and threat data to make rapid, high-stakes decisions. Agentic solutions that rely solely on LLMs can only review a fraction of that data at once, resulting in incomplete problem analysis and reasoning that is unreliable and hallucination-prone.
Exaforce overcomes this technical barrier with a multi-model (aka layered) AI engine that is purpose-built for security and operations. It applies these models in combination, starting with a semantic data model, along with statistical and behavioral models, to extract key insights, behaviors, and relationships from raw data, then performs deeper analysis with knowledge models. This structured use of multiple models not only rightsizes, but also improves the quality of SOC data, which is then fed into LLMs-enabling end-to-end reasoning across the full scope of data. This approach avoids the blind spots of systems that use only LLMs and delivers more accurate, repeatable results.
While in stealth, the company has been collaborating with over 10 leading enterprises across technology, AI software, energy, and manufacturing markets to refine this multi-model approach, and delivering significant gains to their SOC teams in the process.
'Our vision is to empower SOC teams with an intelligent platform that allows humans to collaborate seamlessly with AI agents-integrating precise human oversight with advanced automation,' said
