SOC — Security Operations Center

Ensure there are always eyes on your business, watching out for threats.

Cyberthreats Don’t Keep Regular Hours

We all know the cliches around the perception of a hacker: the recluse hunched over their computer screen, illuminated by the complex codes they’re inputting from memory at breakneck speed in the wee hours of the morning. Generally speaking, only one of these details is somewhat accurate to real life: a threat or cybersecurity issue can occur at any time, day or night.

Modern technology has made the process of launching cyberattacks far easier—effectively effortless—for cybercriminals. 

In fact, there’s a fresh cyberattack every 39 seconds or so.

That means, assuming a cyberattack started the moment you began to read this page, another one will probably strike about when you finish reading this sentence. 

With any luck, your business wasn’t a target this time around… but the clock has already started again.

Avoiding these threats means more than just preserving uptime. There are compliance requirements that are wide enough in scope that effectively every business will be beholden to in some form, as well as those designed to protect very specific industries and their customers.

This means it is essential that you have someone waiting in the wings, faithfully monitoring your business’ network and infrastructure for any sign of an impending threat.

Our Security Operations Center Can Be That Someone for Your Business

With today’s business networks almost universally requiring 24/7 operation, it’s important that the right security tools and solutions are in place and maintained for your protection to match this all-hours functionality. 

However, even this can fall short of a business’ needs. To be detected and managed appropriately, today’s threats largely require all-hours monitoring that a security operations center—or SOC—will provide your business. Working with Setton Consulting can provide you with a comprehensive selection of preventative measures.

Comprehensive Monitoring

Different threats are revealed in various ways, ranging from software abnormalities to traffic trends to odd system or user behaviors. Working with us ensures that there are always eyes on your infrastructure to identify when any of these warning signs appear. As a result, you can be confident that such issues can be caught and mitigated (ideally, before impacting your operations in any way), helping to preserve the security of your network and data.

Detailed Logging

When working with us as your dedicated SOC, you’ll find we love having historical data to reference. Our logs help us more accurately diagnose and resolve your network challenges and provide the proof of oversight that many modern compliance regulations will require of you. With these logs, you can be more confident that the right steps are being taken and that your network truly is being monitored.

Universal Assessment

For the SOC to provide optimal value, every aspect of your network—from hardware to software to its infrastructure as a whole—must be considered. By completely evaluating your IT, we can catch any latent threats and ensure everything is monitored appropriately at all hours.

Incident Response and Investigation

When an issue is detected, it needs to be promptly resolved. Our team can rapidly establish the cause and take the necessary steps to eliminate it, helping you get back to business more expeditiously. From there, the root cause of the problem will be identified to help minimize the likelihood of it repeating in the future.

Give your business the protection it needs with our professional assistance.
