Leidos Launches Agentic AI Platform To Speed Response to Cyber Threats

Leidos introduced UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation on November 10, 2026, to help federal security teams manage cyber alert overload.
The solution uses AI agents to triage alerts, gather context, & assemble findings around the clock while keeping human analysts in control.
The system integrates with existing security tools without requiring agencies to replace current infrastructure.
Organizations retain customer-controlled autonomy to define what the AI can investigate, recommend, or act upon based on mission requirements.
All AI recommendations & actions generate auditable records detailing observations, conclusions, & proposed actions.
A FedRAMP Class D (High) deployment option is available, with a pathway toward Department of War Impact Level 4 & 5 environments.
Steve Hull, president of Leidos Digital, stated the tool allows agencies to pace with threats without surrendering control.
UpHold Effect™ is part of the UpHold™ product suite & applies automation to adversary detection, cyber deception, cloud security, & threat hunting.
Leidos reported annual revenues of approximately $17.2 billion for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2026.
