John Quinsey (also known as “JQ”) is a regional director at Torq with 25 years in software and SaaS sales, solving business problems with disruptive technologies. He firmly believes AI has the power to revolutionize modern security operations. Just five years ago, the average dwell time for a ransomware attack was seven months. Today, it’s five days and shrinking.

Patrick Orzechowski (also known as “PO”) is Torq’s Field CISO, bringing his years of experience and expertise as a SOC leader to our customers. PO is a seasoned security veteran with a deep understanding of the modern security landscape. You can find him talking to SOC leaders and CISOs from major brands at cybersecurity events around the world.

In this week’s episode of The Future of Security Operations podcast, I'm joined by Joe McCallister. Joe’s journey in security is truly unique - in less than a decade, he pivoted from selling BMWs to his current role as Senior Manager of Cybersecurity Operations at The Trade Desk. He’s also led impactful initiatives in risk management, threat hunting, and incident response at Synoptek.

In this guest post, Jason English, Director and Principal Analyst at Intellyx explores how GenAI is moving beyond chat to orchestrate real action for SOC teams. As my colleague Eric Newcomer mentioned in the previous chapter of this series, GenAI changes the security automation game, with multi-system discovery, documentation, and task execution capabilities that can reduce cognitive load and toil for security analysts.
