SOCRadar debuts MCP Server for secure AI threat intel access
SOCRadar has launched its MCP Server to enable secure integration between artificial intelligence models and its threat intelligence platform for cybersecurity professionals. The MCP Server introduces the Model Context Protocol, a standard interface designed to facilitate secure connections between AI language models and external data sources. Through this server, AI assistants can access real-time threat intelligence information, interact with databases and APIs, and utilise various services while ensuring security boundaries are preserved. Facilitating human–AI collaboration According to SOCRadar, cybersecurity teams are increasingly adopting AI agents in their workflows, particularly for threat analysis and incident response. In response, the company developed the MCP Server to offer standardised, controlled access to its threat intelligence databases and security tools. "Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said it best: 'Human language is the new UI layer.' That's exactly why we launched our MCP server. We believe the future of cybersecurity lies in seamless human–AI collaboration. Security threats are evolving too fast for traditional, manual processes to keep up. By allowing AI assistants to access our threat intelligence in real time through natural language, we're giving security teams the ability to respond faster, with more context, and far less friction," said Huzeyfe Onal, CEO of SOCRadar. Simplifying operational workflow The MCP Server allows security teams to interact with SOCRadar's threat intelligence services through conversational requests, bypassing the need to navigate the existing user interface or memorise workflows. Designated commands, such as "Show me my critical assets exposed to the latest Citrix vulnerability" or "Give me the top CVEs affecting my attack surface today," can be issued directly to the MCP Server, which interprets, executes, and provides actionable results on demand. SOCRadar stated this process eliminates interface overload, helping teams focus on managing vulnerabilities and threat responses rather than administrative tasks. Reporting and integration capabilities Security professionals can use the MCP Server to generate reports quickly, including daily threat updates, geo-targeted actor profiles, or environment-specific vulnerability snapshots. Sample requests include: "SOCRadar, create a report on threat actors targeting energy companies in the US over the past week." The company reports that such reports are generated dynamically in seconds, removing the need for templates or filter adjustments. In addition to these features, the MCP Server supports integration with AI-driven SOC platforms and internal AI agents. The server functions as a gateway for systems to enrich indicators of compromise (IOCs), retrieve CVE intelligence, automate response actions, and trigger custom playbooks, all without the need for additional API development. SOCRadar explained that this allows existing AI agents to access the company's platform by simply sending requests, with the server managing the interpretation and fulfilment of tasks. "With SOCRadar's MCP server, there's no need to build brittle APIs. The agent just asks, and SOCRadar answers," the company explained. Platform reach SOCRadar provides threat intelligence services to over 800 customers in 70 countries. Its Extended Threat Intelligence Platform incorporates artificial intelligence and machine learning to deliver threat detection and actionable intelligence for proactive cybersecurity efforts. Product offerings include cyber threat intelligence, external attack surface management, brand protection, dark web monitoring, and supply chain threat intelligence.

SOCRadar boosts MSSP support with free AI training, new tools
SOCRadar has announced an expansion of its Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) programme designed to support partners in scaling operations, automating threat workflows, and improving service delivery. As part of the enhanced programme, SOCRadar will provide free AI Agent and Automation Training to its partners. This training aims to educate MSSPs on the use of AI agents and generative AI (GenAI) technologies to streamline security operations centre (SOC), threat intelligence, and vulnerability management processes. The training is described as platform-agnostic, equipping MSSP partners with hands-on experience to build their own AI-powered workflows, irrespective of the specific tools they currently deploy. Alongside the introduction of free training, SOCRadar has implemented several enhancements to its MSSP programme, including multi-tenant licensing, threat intelligence use cases designed specifically for MSSPs, a Multi-Tenant Management Console, and configurable External Threat Assessment Reports. "Our enhanced MSSP program enables partners to scale smartly and serve clients more effectively. By combining AI Agents with our extended threat intelligence capabilities, MSSPs can double their operational efficiency—automating routine workflows, accelerating incident response, and delivering tailored intelligence without adding headcount. We believe AI Agents and GenAI will be foundational to the future of MSSPs, and we're committed to helping our partners lead that transformation," Huzeyfe Onal, Chief Executive Officer of SOCRadar, said. According to SOCRadar, its AI agents are intelligent automation components embedded within the company's Extended Threat Intelligence (XTI) platform. These agents utilise Large Language Models (LLMs) and automation scripts with the ability to execute complex, multi-stage cybersecurity workflows. Unlike traditional scripts or static rules, SOCRadar's AI agents can analyse contextual information, make decisions based on data, and take actions across multiple IT systems. This approach is intended to reduce the manual workload for analysts, while increasing both the speed and accuracy of threat detection and response. MSSPs can create what SOCRadar refers to as "smart workflows" by establishing specific goals and operational boundaries for each AI agent. The agents then apply planning, reasoning, and learning methods to support tasks such as identifying threats, enriching data, correlating alerts, or prioritising vulnerabilities for remediation. The company listed several key benefits of its framework for MSSPs, including the automation of threat intelligence, SOC, and vulnerability management tasks; reduction in analyst workload while accelerating detection and response times; improvement in decision accuracy with a reduction in false positives; enablement of continuous monitoring across multiple clients without increasing staffing; and the potential to increase both scalability and profitability whilst preserving service quality. SOCRadar reports that it serves over 800 customers in 70 countries. Its Extended Threat Intelligence Platform makes use of artificial intelligence and machine learning for threat detection and to deliver actionable intelligence against cyber threats. The suite of offerings includes Cyber Threat Intelligence, External Attack Surface Management, Brand Protection, Dark Web Monitoring, and Supply Chain Threat Intelligence.
