Company profile

researched Aug 2026

SOC Prime supplies threat detection intelligence and detection engineering tooling for security operations teams. Its product line centers on Prime Core, a dataset described as containing more than 1,000,000 detections and more than 13,000 labels built over roughly ten years and updated daily, which is applied across data pipelines, SIEM, EDR and data lake environments.

Three delivery products sit on top of that dataset. Prime Detect shifts detection to the data-pipeline layer using Sigma, and is positioned around sub-minute mean time to detect, an approximately one-alert-per-30-minutes rate, more than 20,000 behavior rules, and a correlation engine the company describes as 5-tier and 7-dimensional combined with agentic AI, graphs and MITRE ATT&CK. Prime Hunt scans existing SIEM, EDR and data lake deployments against current TTPs through API-based federated search without moving customer data, and includes detection blind-spot and ATT&CK-based data coverage auditing. Prime Architect is a first-party AI offering for detection engineers, available as a user interface and as an MCP plug-in, with sovereign and air-gapped deployment options, no training on customer data, sub-second non-AI translation of Sigma rules into 65 detection languages, custom prompts in 140 languages, plus web search, image recognition and attack-flow understanding.

Business model

The company packages a continuously updated detection-content dataset and detection engineering tooling into commercial products (Prime Core, Prime Detect, Prime Hunt, Prime Architect) that integrate with customers' existing SIEM, EDR, data lake and data pipeline stacks, complemented by strategic intelligence and services. Community-facing elements include the free Uncoder.IO translation site and a Threat Bounty Program that pays detection engineers for contributed content.

Traction

Reported usage includes more than 2 billion Sigma rules downloaded from SOC Prime between 2017 and 2026 by 70,000 people across 155 countries, and a customer base said to include one Fortune 15 company, five of the Fortune 100, twelve of the Forbes Global 2000, large MDR providers, and government and defence agencies.

β–ΈFull profile β€” market position, technology, go-to-market, history

Market position

The company frames itself as a long-standing supplier of detection intelligence, citing the 2016 launch of a cross-platform detection rule marketplace, early commercial Sigma support, and adoption metrics of roughly 2 billion Sigma rule downloads by 70,000 users in 155 countries.

SOC Prime positions itself on the scale and age of its detection dataset (over one million rules and 13,000+ labels built over a decade), non-AI sub-second Sigma translation into 65 target languages, deployment without data movement or infrastructure change via API-only federated search, and first-party AI with no token-based pricing plus sovereign and air-gapped options and no training on customer data.

Technology

SOC Prime's technology is built around the open Sigma detection standard and MITRE ATT&CK mapping. It includes a proprietary correlation engine described as 5-tier and 7-dimensional operating at data-pipeline line speed, sub-second non-AI translation of Sigma rules into 65 detection languages, an investigation engine combining Sigma rules, agentic AI, graphs and ATT&CK, and API-only federated search that performs statistical analysis of attack chains without relocating customer data. Prime Architect is a first-party AI built on open-weight models, offered without token-based pricing, with sovereign and air-gapped deployment and no training on customer data, exposed through both a UI and an MCP interface.

Go-to-market

Enterprise and public-sector security operations teams, including one Fortune 15 company, five of the Fortune 100, twelve of the Forbes Global 2000, large MDR providers, and government and defence agencies.

History

SOC Prime describes a decade-long product timeline beginning in 2016 with what it calls the industry's first cross-platform Threat Detection Marketplace, shipping detection rules for ArcSight, QRadar, Splunk and Elastic. In 2017 it added what it describes as the first commercial Sigma support; between 2017 and 2026 it reports over 2 billion Sigma rule downloads from SOC Prime by 70,000 people across 155 countries. In 2018 the company says it introduced the practice of tagging Sigma rules with MITRE ATT&CK, presented and approved at the first EU ATT&CK Community event in Luxembourg, and launched Uncoder.IO, a free online Sigma translation site. A Threat Bounty Program followed in 2019, and in 2020 the company presented vendor-agnostic continuous detection-as-code pipelines at RSA Conference alongside Microsoft. Uncoder AI, including attack-flow generation, arrived in 2025, and Prime Detect, Prime Architect and Prime Hunt are dated 2026.
