Sekoia rolled out general availability of Sekoia Elevate on September 30, 2026, in Paris, France, marking the company's move to productize autonomous security operations through agentic AI Ritzau. The platform is positioned as the agentic AI layer of Sekoia's autonomous SOC platform, designed to turn security alerts into audit-ready verdicts that human analysts can inspect, challenge, and govern.
The announcement represents the graduation of Elevate from early access into a generally available product. During the early-access phase, the platform was tested in real production environments across more than 2,000 customers, with hundreds of SOC analysts running the system via.ritzau.dk. That testing window produced a concrete operational metric: more than 425,000 autonomous investigations completed without human initiation.
According to Sekoia's public statement, Elevate "turns alerts into audit-ready verdicts that analysts can inspect, challenge and govern." The company also claims the agent processes security data to verdict in 99 seconds, compressing a historically manual and time-consuming SOC workflow into a machine-driven investigation cycle Global Banking and Finance.
The agent operates within the broader autonomous SOC architecture, meaning it receives raw security signals—network logs, endpoint telemetry, alert queues—and performs autonomous triage, correlation, and threat assessment. Rather than eliminating the analyst, Elevate surfaces inspection and challenge capabilities, preserving human oversight and governance touchpoints. This design acknowledges both regulatory requirements and operational risk: security decisions remain subject to human review, but the agent eliminates routine manual busywork.
The launch addresses a documented pain point in security operations: alert fatigue and analyst burnout. SOCs globally face backlogs of hundreds of thousands of daily alerts, many of which are false positives or low-priority. By automating the initial investigation layer, Elevate aims to free analysts for higher-fidelity work—threat hunting, incident response, and forensics—while maintaining the human accountability required in regulated environments.
Sekoia's positioning of this as an "agentic AI layer" reflects the broader shift in enterprise AI from chatbots and copilots to autonomous task-executing agents. The 425,000 investigations benchmark provides concrete evidence of at-scale production testing, distinguishing this announcement from roadmap hype. The general availability date and Paris venue (Ritzau) confirm this is a shipped product, not a beta or pilot.
