In this episode of Quantum Logic, host Spencer Scott explores a major turning point in cybersecurity: the rise of agentic AI.
Unlike traditional generative models, agentic AI doesn’t wait for prompts—it takes initiative, sets goals, and acts autonomously. That shift is transforming the way Security Operations Centres operate, making them faster, smarter, and more proactive.
Spencer breaks down the core differences between agentic and generative AI, then walks through real-world use cases for blue teams—from autonomous threat investigation and real-time phishing response to automated control testing and 24/7 analyst support.
This episode asks:
What does AI-driven decision-making look like in the SOC?
Can AI agents operate like human analysts—or better?
What risks come with this new level of autonomy?
Perfect for cybersecurity professionals, IT leaders, and anyone curious about how the future of AI will change cyber defence from the inside out.
