Beyond AI Security: The Rise of AI SecOps: Splunk + Humanbound

Splunk is where most SOCs already live. Here's how Humanbound streams AI agent security findings into Splunk as structured, HMAC-signed webhooks, so agent security gets the same real-time alerting and incident response as everything else the SOC already handles.
