MixMode Threat Research is a dedicated contributor to MixMode.ai’s blog, offering insights into the latest advancements and trends in cybersecurity. Their posts analyze emerging threats and deliver actionable intelligence for proactive digital defense.
In our newest MixMode report, we break down how a critical infrastructure provider uncovered active nation-state and insider threats within three days of deploying our AI-driven security platform. Despite having a traditional SIEM and a managed security provider, the organization faced undetected cyber risks that put operations at stake. MixMode’s self-supervised AI not only identified threats missed by their existing tools but also reduced alert fatigue by 90%, allowing their Security Operations Center (SOC) team to focus on real risks instead of chasing false positives.
Key Insights
Traditional Security Tools Were Not Enough
Despite having a SIEM and a managed security provider, the organization faced an increasing number of nation-state cyber threats. Their existing tools were unable to detect novel and advanced attack vectors, leaving them vulnerable.
AI-Driven Threat Detection Made an Immediate Impact
Within three days, MixMode’s AI autonomously detected insider threats, unauthorized data exfiltration, and live penetration attempts that had gone undetected. This level of insight allowed the security team to act quickly and mitigate risks before damage could occur.
Reduction in Alert Fatigue
MixMode’s AI reduced false positives by over 90%, allowing the Security Operations Center (SOC) team to focus on real threats instead of sifting through overwhelming alerts. This shift from manual triage to automated, AI-driven prioritization significantly improved operational efficiency.
Faster Incident Response
By moving from a reactive to a proactive security approach, the SOC team improved its ability to detect and respond to threats in real time. Instead of spending time investigating alerts that led nowhere, they focused on high-priority incidents that posed real risks.
Why AI is the Future of Cybersecurity
This report highlights a major shift in cybersecurity. Traditional rule-based security tools are no longer effective against modern threats. Organizations need self-supervised AI that can:
- Detect threats in real time without manual tuning
- Eliminate alert fatigue and false positives
- Provide deeper visibility into security risks
- Support compliance with federal cybersecurity mandates
Learn More About the Deployment and Results
MixMode’s deployment process is designed to deliver immediate security improvements, and in this case, it took just three days to detect and mitigate previously unseen threats. The full report provides a detailed breakdown of how MixMode’s AI was deployed, how it detected live attacks, and the impact it had on the SOC team’s efficiency.
Take the Next SteP
If your organization is struggling with alert fatigue, slow incident response, or undetected security gaps, it’s time to consider AI-driven cybersecurity.
