Eightcap Launches AI-Powered Security Operations Center to Reduce Cybersecurity Costs for Small Businesses by 80%

Eightcap has launched Eightswarm, an Agentic AI Security Operations Centre (SOC) aimed at providing rapid and cost-effective cyber threat detection for small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). The security platform, powered by AWS, detects cyber security anomalies in under 50 seconds, significantly improving the industry benchmark of 15 minutes. Eightcap seeks to address the growing challenges posed by rising cyber threats without necessitating the expansion of security teams or reliance on high-cost managed service providers. This innovative approach allows SMEs to enhance their security posture while managing costs effectively.

Eightswarm utilises embedded intelligent agents to deliver continuous monitoring, rapid response, and real-time remediation at a fraction of the typical costs associated with traditional SOC solutions. According to Eightcap, the new solution can reduce SOC-related costs by up to 80%. AWS has praised Eightcap’s strategy of embedding intelligent agents within security operations, noting that the company is “among the first to operationalise Agentic security.” As security environments become increasingly complex, Eightcap’s model minimises the need for manual analysis, allowing organisations to enhance their capabilities without significantly increasing their workforce.
