Stellar Cyber Listed as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Security Operations, 2026

Company listed in Integrated Security Operations Center Systems category

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Stellar Cyber, the full-cycle, AI-native SecOps platform company, today announced that it has been listed as a Sample Vendor in the Integrated Security Operations Center (ISOC) Systems category in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Security Operations, 2026.

According to Gartner, “ISOC systems offer a unified threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) strategy, often leveraging integrated technologies or services from a single vendor.” The report also states that ISOC systems “serve as an alternative to traditional SIEM platforms, sharing core features like data ingestion, analysis, and response.”

Gartner states: Driven by an urgent need to abandon unscalable legacy architectures and shift from reactive models to proactive, continuous validation approaches, we are seeing sweeping structural shifts that can be categorized into three key themes: threat detection, investigation and response (TDIR) architectures being challenged; continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) continuing to be a growing priority for teams; and the evolution of threat intelligence. Newer solutions, such as security data lakes (SDL) and integrated security operations center (ISOC) systems, offer lower operational complexity, as well as more cost and data flexibility. Stellar Cyber believes its inclusion as a Sample Vendor in the ISOC category reflects the growing market need for unified, outcome-driven security operations that help teams reduce complexity, improve detection and response workflows, and scale operations with automation and AI-assisted capabilities.

“Security operations teams are under constant pressure to do more with less while facing a faster, more complex threat landscape,” said Steve Garrison, SVP Marketing of Stellar Cyber. “We believe the shift toward integrated security operations center systems reinforces the need for a more unified operating model — one that brings data, detection, investigation, triage response, and human-guided automation together so teams can act faster and with greater confidence.”

Stellar Cyber’s full-cycle AI-native security operations platform includes NG SIEM, NDR, Open XDR, and Multi-Layer AI™. The integrated platform is designed to help organizations unify security operations, reduce tool complexity, improve analyst productivity, and accelerate threat detection, investigation, and response.
