Abstract

This chapter examines the transformative role of generative artificial intelligence in modern incident response, focusing on how AI-driven models enhance detection, triage, analysis, and remediation workflows within Security Operations Centers. The chapter outlines limitations of traditional human-centered response frameworks and demonstrates how large language models, reinforcement learning agents, and multimodal generative systems provide adaptive, context-aware decision support. A conceptual architecture for autonomous defenders is introduced, illustrating how generative AI integrates with SIEM, SOAR, and XDR platforms to enable semi-autonomous and fully automated security actions. Ethical, regulatory, and governance considerations are discussed to ensure responsible deployment of AI-driven cyber defense capabilities. The chapter concludes by identifying emerging research directions and outlining future trends that will shape AI-augmented incident response ecosystems.
