Sophos reports faster threat investigations with AI agents

An OpenAI customer report says Sophos cut its average response time from about 38 minutes to 89 seconds in cases that used Daybreak agents. The report says AI handles 52% of managed-detection-and-response cases from start to finish, within limits set by Sophos analysts.

These are company-reported results, not an independent comparison or a measure of every case. Sophos retains customer authorization modes and human review for actions an agent should not handle. Faster investigation alone does not establish fewer missed threats.

Compare the speed with the quality of each investigation, the number of false alarms and the results of escalated cases. A faster response still needs to be correct and authorized.
