Cybercriminals never rest. They typically conduct their attacks after hours and on weekends to maximize their chances of success.
Therefore, to minimize cybersecurity risks, a company's IT infrastructure and data must be monitored 24/7.
Many enterprise networks are becoming increasingly complex. Digital transformation initiatives have led to the adoption of cloud computing and IoT devices, while the expansion of remote work and bring your own device (BYOD) policies have connected remote and mobile devices to the corporate network.
As a result, maintaining visibility and security across the enterprise network has become more complex.
A security operations center, or SOC, is one of the first lines of defense against attacks and breaches. The function of the security operations center is to monitor, prevent, detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats around the clock. SOC teams are charged with monitoring and protecting the organization’s assets including intellectual property, personnel data, business systems, and brand integrity.
Whether the SOC is located in-house or in the cloud, staffed internally, outsourced or a mix of both, it can mean the difference between preventing a breach and shutting down a business. Without a SOC, companies are unable to rapidly detect and respond to advanced threats before they do damage, leaving them especially vulnerable to cyber attacks – resulting in issues such as financial penalties, reputation damage, customer churn and even litigation.
