Competition Simulating SOC of the Future Will Award Winners Prizes Totaling $10,000
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.: #AI--Simbian®, on a mission to solve security for businesses using AI, today announced it is hosting the industry’s first AI SOC Championship to be held April 8. This competition tests the threat hunting and remediation skills of participants, with cash prizes available totaling $10,000. For more information and to register, see: https://resources.simbian.ai/ai-soc-championship-2025.
The competition simulating the Security Operations Center (SOC) of the future consists of a complex environment full of 100 active alerts from SIEMs, XDRs, and EDRs, including CrowdStrike, Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Defender, IBM QRadar, and Splunk. Participants will guide AI Agents in a race to investigate a maze of threats accurately.
Three grand prizes totaling $2,500, $1,500, and $1,000 will be awarded. Ten additional winners will receive $500. Winners will be determined by their speed and accuracy in completing the challenge. Participants can compete as an individual or as a team of up to three people, with teams splitting any prizes among the members.
“There is significant momentum across the industry toward an AI SOC model and we expect that in the next 2-3 years most SOCs will be AI-first,” said Ambuj Kumar, Simbian CEO and Co-Founder. “The AI SOC Championship competition is a lucrative opportunity for anyone who thrives in high intensity cyber defense activities to not just win prizes and bragging rights, but also to test their readiness for an AI-first SOC of the future.”
An AI SOC creates career advancement opportunities for SOC analysts and threat hunters. With AI doing all the repetitive work, analysts step into the role of supervisor of the AI agents, focusing on higher impact work such as planning and prioritization, business-security tradeoffs, and shifting left to strengthen defenses.
Security Operations Centers worldwide are facing an acute shortage of security talent. Simbian’s suite of AI Agents fills this gap by autonomously performing common tasks across SOC, Threat Hunting, Vulnerability Remediation Management, and GRC. These agents are a key component of an AI-first SOC.
Simbian’s platform includes an AI SOC Agent that autonomously triages, investigates, and responds to alerts from SIEMs, XDRs, and EDRs, while also taking necessary actions. Simbian’s Threat Hunting Agent proactively looks for threats across the entire environment using AI.
