Quick tip for SOC leaders measuring MTTR. Stop optimizing the human. Optimize what the human has to do.

Dropzone AI handles the investigation legwork autonomously. Correlating alerts, gathering evidence, documenting findings. Your analysts only engage when it actually matters.

The results are investigations that took hours and now take under 10 minutes with much better accuracy of up to 30%. And analysts who can finally focus on real threats.

Proven at over 300 enterprises who have deployed Dropzone AI. See the data at dropzone.ai.
