What Does Culminate Do
Culminate is redefining cybersecurity operations with its groundbreaking AI SOC Analyst that autonomously investigates alerts, tackling one of the industry’s most persistent challenges. Despite significant investments in cutting-edge tools that monitor IT ecosystems, organizations are inundated with vast amounts of data, much of it masking security alerts.
Fully investigating all alerts early is essential to prevent cyberattacks from escalating, yet doing so requires immense resources—both in analysis and skilled personnel. Culminate’s innovative approach streamlines this process, empowering organizations to uncover threats faster and more effectively, transforming the way cybersecurity is managed.
Investigate All Alerts
As organizations adopt more advanced tools to enhance their security intelligence, they face an unintended consequence: a surge in alerts that demand investigation. Security Operations Center (SOC) teams are tasked with sifting through this deluge to uncover critical threats. But as alert volumes grow, teams become overwhelmed, leading to alert fatigue—a state where the sheer quantity of alerts creates an ever-growing backlog.
This fatigue often results in rushed triaging, where analysts may overlook critical threats or rely on "rubber stamping"—making intuitive decisions without proper analysis, risking missed incidents and escalating security breaches.
Enter Culminate, a game-changer in cybersecurity operations. Using autonomous AI agents, Culminate works tirelessly to analyze and investigate alerts around the clock. These agents not only eliminate low-value noise but also surface high-priority alerts with detailed, actionable reports. By reducing alert overload, Culminate empowers SOC teams to focus on proactive defense measures, transforming how organizations manage cybersecurity in an era of increasing complexity.
Solution To SOC Staffing Woes
Culminate is helping organizations and MSSPs tackle one of the most pressing challenges in cybersecurity: a severe shortage of skilled professionals. With a staggering 4 million worker deficit, even the most proactive hiring efforts struggle to bridge the gap.
By automating routine cybersecurity tasks, Culminate alleviates the burden on existing teams, significantly reducing the need for manual alert investigations. This allows organizations to manage staffing shortages more effectively while enabling analysts to focus on complex, high-stakes challenges that demand their expertise.
Beyond efficiency, Culminate transforms workplace dynamics by eliminating repetitive, monotonous tasks. This boosts job satisfaction and fosters a more engaged, productive workforce. The result is a powerful solution that not only addresses the talent crisis but also creates a streamlined, rewarding operational model for cybersecurity teams.
