Agentic Index

The best security and SOC agents in 2026, ranked

The best security and SOC agents of 2026 are Torq, CrowdStrike, and Tines, ranked by verified capability coverage on the Agentic Index. All 85 researched vendors in the category are scored against the same 14 capabilities, and Torq documents the broadest coverage at 12.5 out of 14.

Agentic Index ranks all 85 security and SOC agents in its index by verified capability coverage. These are agents that triage, investigate, and respond to security alerts autonomously. Each vendor is scored across the same 14 point taxonomy used throughout the index, most recently verified on 2026-09-29, and this ranking recomputes automatically as new research is verified.

Buyers also search this category as agentic SOC platforms, AI alert triage tools, and autonomous security operations agents.
