Security Operations Centers are under pressure like never before.

Thousands of alerts per day. Increasingly complex IT environments. Analyst burnout. Fragmented visibility across hybrid infrastructures. The traditional SOC operating model - largely unchanged for years is reaching its limits.

Can artificial intelligence truly change this trajectory?

In this episode of GeneralTalks, we speak with Adam Palmer, cybersecurity expert and author in the European Cybersecurity Journal, about the real capabilities and real risks of deploying AI in modern SOCs.

This is not a conversation driven by hype. It is a rigorous examination of what AI can and cannot do in high-stakes security environments.

AI in cybersecurity is not just another tool. It represents a shift in how organizations conceptualize risk, accountability, and operational resilience.

If you want a sober, strategic perspective on the future of Security Operations Centers - this episode is for you.
