Torq Becomes the Cursor of Security Operations With New Agentic Builder
18.3.2026 15:47:00 CET | Business Wire | Press release
Torq, the established agentic security operations leader, today unveiled Agentic Builder, a critical extension of the Torq AI SOC Platform that turns human intent into agentic outcomes. Agentic Builder enables SOCs to shift the cognitive load of engineering security automation from humans to machines. These Cursor-level capabilities eliminate all barriers to deliver production-grade agentic workflows and AI Agents that manage unlimited alerts 24x7, integrate with every level of the enterprise stack, streamline investigation, and respond at machine speed.

This news follows Torq’s recent announcement that it has secured a $140M Series D round at $1.2B valuation to lead the AI SOC and Agentic AI era. Torq AI Agents are now deeply embedded in the daily operations of Fortune 500 SOCs, managing millions of complex security tasks autonomously. Torq now protects hundreds of multinational enterprises, including new customers LEGO, Marriott, and Prudential, who join the ranks of Carvana, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, Siemens, Uber, Virgin Atlantic, and countless others.
"After successfully delivering AI capabilities that have freed SOC analysts from overwhelming alerts, false positives, and fatigue, Torq now liberates SecOps engineers and architects from the manual tedium that delays value realization,” said Ofer Smadari, CEO and co-founder, Torq. “It eliminates the historic tradeoff between speed and control by enabling teams to design and operationalize sophisticated AI-driven security workflows through specific intent. What once took months of engineering and endless maintenance can now be realized in minutes, with built-in validation, governance, and continuous learning. It’s a fundamental redesign of how security operations are conceived, built, and scaled. Torq is ensuring defenders move faster than attackers—autonomously, intelligently, and without limits.”
Agentic Builder, designed from the ground up to dramatically elevate engineer and architect productivity, underscores how Torq continues to drive the complete transformation of the Security Operations Center (SOC) through the Torq AI SOC Platform. It’s the only end-to-end solution built on the pillars of advanced Hyperautomation, alert triage, and fatigue reduction to deliver full operational autonomy for global enterprises and government agencies.
Agentic Builder is part of Torq Socrates, the core orchestrator of the Torq AI SOC Platform, coordinating specialized AI agents to autonomously run security operations at scale through a natural language interface that accelerates security operations, decision making, and execution. Torq Socrates now provides that same machine speed and precision to SecOps engineers and architects, killing off the grunt work of manual planning, building, troubleshooting, and maintaining complex workflows and AI Agents.
“I’ve had a chance to preview Agentic Builder and it’s clear this will fundamentally change how SecOps works for the better,” said Corey Kaemming, CISO, Valvoline. “Agentic Builder feels less like configuring an application and more like collaborating with an intelligent counterpart that understands SecOps objectives, architects the best approach, and delivers a ready-to-run agent without manual rework and hassle. Instead of dedicating staff to stitching together integrations and debugging logic, Agentic Builder will enable organizations to redirect that expertise toward risk strategy and resilience. This is the kind of breakthrough that resets expectations for what a modern cyber defense program can achieve.”
Here’s how Agentic Builder works:
- Security professionals describe the intent of any security outcome in natural language, which then prompts Agentic Builder to address anticipated security events, as well as ensuring the correct semantic memory, business context, organizational security standards, and tools are implemented
- Agentic AI plans the assignment based on previous agentic workflows, selects the tools and integrations, defines the parameters and guardrails, implements the orchestration logic, and generates custom Torq AI Agents
- Prior to deploying the new Torq AI Agent, Torq Socrates comprehensively tests it against real-world data, illustrates step-by-step actions and outputs, and validates potential results—such as email previews, case descriptions, and UI screens—which allows security professionals to refine behavior until it precisely matches organizational standards
- Torq Socrates continuously monitors the execution of the new Torq AI Agents and agentic workflows in production, and auto-calibrates to improve resilience, performance, and adjust due to changing conditions
Torq is providing exclusive demos of Agentic Builder for qualified RSAC attendees, March 23-26, at Booth #527, South Expo Hall, Moscone Center in San Francisco.
