Armor, a leading provider of cybersecurity and compliance solutions, announced the launch of the Armor Intelligence Platform today. This transformative advancement supercharges Armor’s Security Operations Center (SOC), accelerating detection and response to emerging threats while mirroring the precision and rigor of a human-led investigation.
From our vantage point of protecting the world’s most mission-critical assets, Armor recognized the urgent need to approach threat investigation differently. We set out to develop a system built on trusted AI-driven security decisions to accelerate detection and response. The result is unparalleled consistency, speed, scalability, and precision in detecting and responding to cyber threats – with a system that mimics human investigative reasoning for explainable and rapid semi-autonomous operations.

“Traditional SOCs are drowning in data but starved for actionable insights,” said Chris Stouff, Chief Security Officer at Armor. “The Armor Intelligence Platform does not just automate workflows — it replicates human expertise at scale, ensuring every decision is both rapid and defensible. We have dramatically improved our SOC analyst decision-making speed, with average Mean Time to Decision dropping from 15 minutes to an impressive 40 seconds.”
Key Outcomes of the Armor Intelligence Platform include:
- Accelerated and Accurate Threat Resolution: AI-driven threat validation combined with expert human oversight cuts Mean Time to Decision by up to 95% without sacrificing precision.
- Scalable Investigation of All Signals: Automatically identifies and enriches critical threat indicators across diverse data sources, accelerating threat analysis workflows by over 8x.
- Rigorous Threat Assessment: Understands the broader context of security signals, like whether an alert is linked to a previously identified vulnerability or is part of an ongoing attack campaign, reducing false positives through contextual enrichment of security alerts.
- Explainable AI-Driven Analysis: Modelled after the real-world investigative techniques of SOC analysts, ensuring decisions are transparent and auditable — a critical differentiator in an era of evolving AI ethics standards.
