In an era of rapid digital intelligence, Security Operations Centers (SOCs) serve a vital role in safeguarding enterprise cybersecurity. However, the increasing complexity of cyber threats presents significant challenges for SOCs, including a rise in the volume of threats, escalating attack complexities, and the rise of intelligent attack methods.
When addressing security incidents and vast amounts of threat intelligence, SOCs heavily rely on the expertise of security professionals for incident response. However, with the rise of artificial intelligence, the complexity of business operational data has increased, necessitating more comprehensive technical skills and knowledge from these professionals. Rapid and accurate responses to potential security threats are essential as any delays or misreporting can result in severe vulnerabilities. Moreover, the complexities of vulnerability management and stricter compliance requirements further exacerbate the operational pressure on SOCs. To tackle these challenges, introducing advanced AI technologies will be key to enhancing the overall SOC performance.
Recently, DeepSeek, a generative AI, has gained popularity for its ability to simulate human thinking processes. By combining intelligent data analysis, contextual understanding, automated workflow, and report generation, it can significantly enhance the operational efficiency of SOCs. Its rapid threat detection and real-time response capabilities greatly improve the work efficiency and productivity of cybersecurity teams. This article explores how CITIC Telecom CPC leverage generative AI technologies like DeepSeek to strengthen SOC capabilities, enabling enterprises to swiftly respond to increasingly complex AI-driven cyberattacks, thereby ensuring data and enterprise security.
Leveraging AI to combat AI-driven cyber threats elevates SOC capabilities to new heights:
Automated Incident Detection and Response
AI automates the collection and analysis of extensive data (e.g., threat intelligence), identifying anomalous behavior, generating real-time alerts, and providing automated response recommendations. This allows SOC teams to execute responses quickly and significantly reduce threat handling times.
Data Integration from Multi-Source for Enhanced Threat and Vulnerability Management
By integrating and analyzing vast historical data and attack patterns, AI can generate a comprehensive security overview, aiding in the detection of potential vulnerabilities and threats. AI can also produce reports on vulnerabilities and threats that offer insights and recommendations, empowering security experts to gain deeper insights into emerging threats and make precise decisions.
Automated Report Generation
AI automatically generates security incident reports, alleviating the workload on human resources and enabling security professionals to focus on higher-level analysis and decision-making, thereby enhancing overall efficiency.
Natural Language for Improved Communication
Utilizing natural language processing, AI provides clear and understandable alert explanations, facilitating accurate interpretation of playbooks and commands. This capability allows even junior analysts to perform precise queries and actions.
Training and Skill Enhancement for Security Personnel
AI acts as a virtual mentor, imparting knowledge related to cybersecurity best practices, tools, and processes. It can also simulate attack scenarios for training purposes, enhancing the response capabilities of security teams, particularly for new SOC analysts, while addressing long-term staffing shortages.
Recognizing the escalating nature of cyber threats, we launched our TrustCSI™ MSS Managed Security Service as early as 2006. With extensive experience in information security, we further introduced TrustCSI™ 3.0, revolutionizing SOC core capabilities through AI to become a trusted TechOps enabler for enterprises.
CITIC Telecom CPC's three SOCs and MSS service framework integrate various generative AI models and applications. The integration of DeepSeek large model began in 2024 which can significantly enhance both internal and external intelligent service capabilities of the SOCs, as well as improve the customer service experience. Harnessing AI’s advanced computational and analytical capabilities, we expect substantial improvements in the detection efficiency of our TrustCSI™ MSS Managed Security Service. In daily operations, AI can support our teams of SOC cybersecurity experts in continuously optimizing alert rules and threat models, while automatically generating targeted security reports to further enhance operational efficiency.
We are dedicated to maintaining robust data security for our clients with rigorous measures while integrating AI to enhance SOC service capabilities. Regular security vulnerability assessments will be carried out to promptly identify and rectify potential vulnerabilities. TrustCSI™ MSS platform will only interact with AI model based on general language structures and security analysis models, with strict regulations and limitations on uploaded file content and types. It ensures no sensitive client information or real incident data will be transmitted externally. On the other hand, we can provide on-premise deployment of AI model, ensuring comprehensive data management and minimizing the risk of sensitive data exposure while maximizing the benefits of generative AI.
AI technology is revolutionizing the operational landscape and service of SOCs, providing powerful capabilities such as deep learning techniques and diverse problem-solving characteristics to forge comprehensive cybersecurity protection for enterprises. Beyond the capabilities to integrate DeepSeek to strengthen SOC service, CITIC Telecom CPC has also developed several proprietary AI security tools: AI Pentest for automated penetration testing to identify security vulnerabilities; and the award-winning AI Visual Security solution to enable enterprises to detect and respond to malware swiftly, bringing cybersecurity to next-level.
The application of DeepSeek is rapidly expanding across industries, enabling more intelligent, more efficient, and cost-effective service levels. We look forward to the continuous development of AI tools that unlock limitless possibilities. Our innovative R&D team is continuously delving into artificial intelligence, developed numerous intelligent solutions for diverse industry scenarios.
