The 24/7 SOC

Vigil: the 24/7 agentic SOC.

Always-on detection, triage, investigation, containment, and remediation, run by Athena’s agents, supervised by people, delivered as a service.

01

SOC coverage without SOC headcount.

Standing up an in-house SOC means tools, process, and a 24/7 staffing model most organizations cannot sustain. Vigil delivers the function instead. The agents run the queue around the clock, so threats are caught, contained, and fixed whether or not anyone is watching at 3am.

4.8M unfilled cybersecurity roles globally, growing 19% year on year.

What the agents handle.

Detection across your stack. Triage and enrichment. Investigation with assembled evidence. Containment and remediation under your authority matrix. Documentation and reporting, automatically, on every case.

03

What you see.

A documented trail behind every action. Real SLAs, enforced automatically. Readable reports on schedule. Escalations only when something genuinely needs a human decision, yours or ours.

How it compares

SOC coverage, without the SOC headcount.

In-house SOCs need headcount for 24/7. Traditional MDR staffs analysts who sample and escalate. Vigil runs the whole loop, delivered as a service.

Common questions

Vigil, answered.

What is a 24/7 agentic SOC (SOC-as-a-Service)?

A 24/7 agentic SOC is round-the-clock security operations run by AI agents rather than a room of analysts: detection, triage, investigation, containment and remediation, delivered as a service and supervised by people. Vigil gives you SOC coverage without adding SOC headcount.

How is Vigil different from a traditional MDR or MSSP?

Traditional MDR and MSSP services staff human analysts who often sample alerts and escalate the hard cases back to you. Vigil triages every alert and acts on it in seconds, under your policy, and shows you the whole loop rather than a summary.

Does Vigil replace my SOC team?

No. Vigil removes the 3am alert grind and the pressure to hire for coverage, so your people supervise outcomes and make the judgment calls. It adds capacity, it does not replace the team.

Do humans stay in control?

Yes. You set the authority Vigil operates within, every action is auditable and reversible, and your team can step in at any point. Autonomy is a dial, not a leap.

What does Vigil monitor and work with?

Vigil runs on your existing telemetry and controls: EDR, network, identity, cloud and email, alongside your SIEM. It operates through the tools you already have, it does not rip them out.
