Today’s enterprise cybersecurity landscape is fractured. Security Operations Centers (SOCs) focus on detecting and responding to incidents. DevSecOps, meanwhile, integrates security into every phase of the development lifecycle. They both serve the same mission of protecting the business but operate with different tools, workflows, and KPIs.
The result? Silos. Delayed responses. Alert fatigue. And worst of all—missed opportunities to stop threats before they escalate.
This article dives into how Peris.ai’s AI-powered Automation Layer unifies these two critical functions, enabling faster response times, smarter prioritization, and true cross-functional collaboration.
SOC vs DevSecOps: Different Worlds, Same Mission
Focus
- SOC: Real-time incident detection & response
- DevSecOps: Secure and fast software delivery
Toolset
- SOC: SIEM, EDR, XDR, IRP
- DevSecOps: SAST, DAST, IaC, container security
Challenges
- SOC: Alert fatigue, manual triage, burnout
- DevSecOps: Patch delays, compliance burden, tool sprawl
Key Metrics
- SOC: MTTD, MTTR, threat containment
- DevSecOps: Deployment velocity, vulnerability resolution
Despite overlapping goals, these teams often duplicate efforts, speak different “security languages,” and rely on disjointed tools.
What Happens When They Don’t Sync?
1. Delayed Remediation
SOCs detect an issue, but getting DevSecOps to fix it—whether in code or infrastructure, can take weeks. This increases threat dwell time.
2. Fragmented Context
Threat intel, indicators of compromise (IOCs), and asset criticality are interpreted differently by each team, slowing down decisions.
3. Tool Overload
Multiple dashboards, redundant scans, and a lack of shared visibility compound inefficiencies and create inconsistent security postures.
4. Team Fatigue
SOC analysts face noisy alerts. DevSecOps engineers face a firehose of compliance demands. Both suffer, neither wins.
Why a Shared Automation Layer Changes EverythingConnects Disparate Tools
Connects Disparate Tools
Integrates SOC tools (EDR, XDR, NVM) with DevOps systems (CI/CD pipelines, Git, Jira, K8s), transforming detection into action.
Enables Real-Time Feedback Loops
When SOC identifies a misconfiguration, a contextual task is instantly pushed into the developer’s backlog, mapped to the actual repo, pipeline, or resource.
Unifies Visibility
Cross-team dashboards surface incident timelines, asset ownership, risk scores, and patch status, aligned to business context.
Prioritizes What Matters
Peris.ai’s automation filters noise, enriches alerts, and scores incidents based on impact—reducing unnecessary escalation and alert fatigue.
How Peris.ai Bridges SOC & DevSecOps
Peris.ai’s Automation Layer uses agentic AI to automate decision-making, streamline collaboration, and eliminate silos.
AI-Driven Case Management
Unifies SOC tools (XDR, EDR, NVM) into one intelligent system that reduces analyst workloads and routes alerts contextually.
Native CI/CD & Issue Tracker Integration
Auto-assigns vulnerabilities to developers in GitHub, GitLab, or Jira, mapped to specific builds, IaC files, or containers.
Central Asset Intelligence
Maintains a real-time asset knowledge base, tying IOCs and incidents to specific business-critical systems.
Smart Automation Playbooks
Orchestrates detection → triage → remediation with fully customizable workflows that adapt across functions.
