24/7 SOC coverage used to mean five analysts, three shifts, and a budget only Fortune 500 companies could justify. Strike48’s AI agents investigate every alert in minutes, 24/7/365. Now a two-person team can run continuous operations without burning out or letting threats sit in the queue overnight.
Attackers time campaigns for weekends, holidays, and the hours when your team is asleep. Building traditional 24/7 coverage takes five to six analysts working rotating shifts, plus the salary, training, and turnover costs that come with them. For most security teams, that math never works. The gap between coverage hours and threat hours becomes the breach window.

Strike48's L1 Analyst Agent triages incoming alerts the moment they fire. The L2 Analyst Agent pivots through your stack to gather evidence, map attack timelines to MITRE ATT&CK, and identify patient zero. Whether an alert lands at 9 AM Tuesday or 2 AM Sunday, the investigation runs to the same depth, with the same rigor, in under eight minutes.
Human analysts get tired. They miss context on alert number 400. They cut corners under pressure. Strike48 agents apply the same investigative playbook to alert one and alert ten thousand, with full evidence chains documented for every finding. Your senior analysts stop spending nights triaging false positives and start spending days on threat hunts, detection engineering, and the work that requires human judgment.

Agents don't take destructive action on their own. Containment, account lockouts, and host isolation pass through approval gates you configure. The L1 agent escalates clean cases to your L2 agent. The L2 agent escalates ambiguous findings to a human. Critical decisions stay with people. Repetitive investigation work stays with the agents.
A traditional 24/7 SOC runs $500K to $1M annually in fully loaded analyst costs. Strike48 scales with alert volume, not headcount. Add a major SaaS deployment, onboard a new business unit, or absorb a wave of phishing alerts without renegotiating your staffing plan.

the team that never sleeps
A coordinated team of specialized agents covers every alert type, every hour, with human approval at every critical decision.
Performs initial alert triage and investigation, determining whether alerts represent real threats or false positives before escalation.
Conducts deeper threat analysis by enriching alerts with additional context from threat intelligence, user behavior, and historical data.
Automatically categorizes and prioritizes incoming alerts based on severity, asset criticality, and threat context to focus analyst attention.
Analyzes emails and URLs for phishing indicators, flagging suspicious messages and automating initial investigation steps.
Continuously monitors threat intelligence feeds and security advisories to alert you about new vulnerabilities, exploits, and emerging threats.
Coordinates security operations across the team, managing workflows, prioritizing incidents, and ensuring timely response to security events.
A 24/7 SOC (security operations center) monitors and investigates security alerts around the clock, every hour of every day, so threats are caught the moment they appear rather than the next business morning. Running one in-house traditionally means staffing five to six analysts across rotating shifts, plus the tools they work in (SIEM, EDR, identity and cloud telemetry) and the recurring cost of training and turnover, often $500K to $1M a year. That math rarely works for small and mid-sized security teams, and the gap between coverage hours and threat hours becomes the breach window. Modern alternatives close that gap with automation. AI SOC agents triage and investigate routine alerts continuously, map activity to MITRE ATT&CK, and escalate only what needs a human. Strike48 delivers continuous 24/7 SOC coverage this way. Its L1 and L2 analyst agents investigate every alert to the same depth at 3 AM as at 3 PM, so a two-person team can run always-on operations without adding headcount or burning out.
No, and the difference matters. Monitoring means alerts are watched around the clock. Many services stop there, which leaves a queue of unworked alerts for your team to investigate the next morning. Investigation and response means each alert is actually worked: evidence gathered, correlated, dispositioned, and contained where it is warranted. Strike48 delivers the second kind. Agents do not just flag overnight activity, they investigate it to disposition and act inside the boundaries you set, so you wake up to resolved cases rather than a backlog.
Building a 24/7 SOC in-house typically runs $500K to $1M a year. That covers five to six analysts to fill rotating shifts plus the SIEM and EDR tooling they work in. Training and turnover add to the figure year over year, and the productivity lost to alert fatigue rarely shows up on the budget line but costs you all the same. Strike48 delivers the same continuous coverage at a fraction of in-house cost. Agents handle the investigation volume that would otherwise drive most of the headcount, so you reach 24/7 operations with the small team you already have. Pricing scales with your alert volume and data sources rather than the number of shifts you need to staff.
Yes. Two to three human analysts can run continuous operations because agents handle the routine investigation volume that would otherwise require five to six analysts on rotating shifts. Humans focus on escalations, threat hunting, and strategic work. Agents handle the queue.
No. It changes what they do. Tier 1 alert triage moves to agents. Your analysts move into oversight, threat hunting, detection engineering, and incident command roles where human judgment matters most. Teams typically report higher job satisfaction after the shift.
The L1 Analyst Agent acknowledges and begins triage within seconds of an alert firing. A complete investigation, including evidence gathering, correlation, and disposition, completes in under eight minutes for most alert types. Speed does not vary by time of day.
Strike48 agents investigate to a consistent standard on every alert, which removes the variance that comes with analyst fatigue and shift handoffs. [Insert current accuracy figure, for example agreement with human disposition on X% of alerts, or false-negative rate against analyst review.] Every disposition is backed by the evidence the agent gathered, so accuracy is auditable rather than asserted. When an agent is not confident enough to disposition an alert on its own, it escalates to a human instead of guessing.
Alert fatigue comes from volume that never gets worked, where real threats sit in the same queue as benign noise. Strike48 investigates every alert to disposition, so benign alerts are closed with evidence instead of left for an analyst to triage by hand. Your team sees the alerts that survived a full investigation and were escalated for a reason, not the raw firehose. The agents apply consistent logic to recurring patterns, so the noise that used to consume shifts is handled before it reaches a human.
Strike48 covers the alert types that make up most of a SOC's daily volume: phishing and email, endpoint, cloud, identity, and network. Agents ingest from the sources behind those alerts, including your email security, EDR, cloud platforms, identity provider, and network tooling. Because the agents investigate across sources rather than one tool at a time, they can connect an identity alert to related endpoint and cloud activity in a single case.
Yes. Strike48 connects to the security stack you already run rather than replacing it. Agents pull alerts and telemetry from your SIEM, EDR, identity provider, and cloud platforms, investigate across those sources, and write findings back to your existing tools and ticketing system.
Agents can execute pre-approved containment actions automatically (blocking IPs, disabling sessions, quarantining endpoints) within the boundaries you set. Configurable human-in-the-loop controls allow you to choose what actions trigger an escalation to your on-call analyst with full context, evidence, and recommended next steps already prepared.
When an agent escalates overnight, it reaches your on-call analyst through the channel you already use, whether that is SMS, a ticket in your PSA or ticketing system, or a message to Slack or Microsoft Teams. The escalation arrives with the work already done: the evidence the agent gathered, its disposition, and the recommended next steps. Your analyst opens a prepared case rather than a bare alert to start from scratch.
Yes. Every investigation produces a full evidence chain: the alert that fired, the data the agent pulled, the correlations it made, the reasoning behind its disposition, and any action it took. You can open any case and follow the agent's steps from the initial alert to the final decision. That record is what makes the work auditable for your own review and for compliance evidence.
Deployment is measured in minutes to hours, not weeks. You connect your alert sources, set the boundaries for automated action, and agents begin investigating live alerts. There is no rip and replace of your existing stack, which is what lets coverage start quickly. Most teams see agents working real alerts on the first day.
