Simbian is a high-performance AI security operations platform that utilizes context-aware autonomous agents to, investigate, and respond to cyber threats.
Introduction
The traditional Security Operations Center (SOC) is reaching a breaking point as AI-armed attackers operate at a speed that quickly overruns manual defense. Simbian was built to solve this “context gap” by introducing a platform designed for autonomy, not just automation. By leveraging Superintelligence for Security, Simbian empowers understaffed teams to investigate 100% of alerts with full organizational context. This is not just about efficiency; it’s about efficacy—ensuring that even stealthy, AI-driven threats are contained before they materialize into full-scale breaches. For CISOs planning their 2026 strategy, Simbian represents a paradigm shift from reactive scripting to a proactive, adaptive defense that evolves with every new threat.

Review
Simbian is a high-performance AI security operations platform that utilizes context-aware autonomous agents to triage, investigate, and respond to cyber threats at machine speed. Founded in 2023 by industry veterans from Google and Nutanix, Simbian is engineered to move beyond traditional, static SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) playbooks which often fail against modern AI-powered attacks. Its unique Context Lake™ architecture fuses siloed data from SIEM, XDR, and identity providers into a unified “source of truth,” allowing its agents to make smart, situationally aware decisions 24/7.
The platform stands out for its 92% autonomous resolution rate, which effectively ends the “alert fatigue” that plagues human analysts. Unlike simple chatbots or co-pilots that require human steering, Simbian’s agents act as “virtual employees” capable of containing threats independently while remaining “coachable” via natural language. While it is a sophisticated enterprise tool, its ability to deploy within hours and demonstrate a 10x ROI within months makes it a critical defensive weapon for SOC teams facing the AI-on-AI warfare of 2026.

Getting Started with Simbian: Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Connect Your Security Stack
Integrate Simbian with your existing SIEM, XDR, and identity providers via API. No PowerShell or endpoint agents are required.
Step 2: Ingest Organizational Context
Feed the Simbian Context Lake™ with company policies, previous incident reports, and asset inventories to build its situational awareness.
Step 2: Ingest Organizational Context
Start with high-volume, low-complexity alerts to let the AI demonstrate its ability to recognize false positives and free up your team.
Step 4: Enable Autonomous Response
Shift from “investigation mode” to “response mode,” allowing the AI SOC Agent to take containment actions (like suspending accounts) based on high-confidence verdicts.
Step 5: Coach and Tune
Review the AI’s “thought process” logs and use natural language to refine its decision logic, ensuring it stays aligned with your organization’s risk tolerance.
