Detection Latency Budget: Why Blast Radius Is an Integral

Detection Latency Budget: Why Blast Radius Is an Integral

AI, Application Development, Cloud, Platform Engineering, Security /

Most enterprises have invested in fast detection sensors while leaving batch correlation and manual runbooks as dominant latency stages. Armo’s five-stage pipeline framework reframes blast radius as a latency integral, not a threshold, with direct implications for how security and platform engineering teams should share ownership of time-to-containment. ECI Research finds the same structural gap appearing across AI operations and FinOps maturity models.
