AI SoC and SMB's in 2025, Where are We?

In this episode, we take a hard look at how AI is being integrated into cybersecurity—and where the narrative often diverges from reality. The discussion spans offensive and defensive use cases, the structural challenges facing SMBs, and why open-source cyber threat intelligence (CTI) remains a critical foundation despite aggressive vendor marketing.We also explore the economic pressures shaping today’s security market, including broken pricing models, unrealistic expectations placed on small teams, and the growing gap between compliance optics and real risk reduction. The episode concludes with a forward-looking discussion on applied machine learning, mathematical modeling, and how these approaches can meaningfully support incident responders in the field.Practical applications of AI in cybersecurity operationsOffensive vs. defensive AI tradeoffsThe SMB security gap and market failureOpen-source CTI as a force multiplierPricing models and market distortionApplied ML and mathematics for real-world incident responseProduct direction and long-term vision00:00 — Introduction and company overview38:10 — Pricing models, market dynamics, and systemic issues39:26 — Future plans, roadmap, and strategic vision52:00 — AI in offensive and defensive cybersecurity operations58:54 — Open-source CTI and applied AI capabilitiesKey Topics CoveredChapters
