The Human Element – The SOC Team
Fully managed Security Monitoring means our automated advanced search & detection technology is backed by a team of certified security analysts. These experts in the Security Operations Centre (SOC) manage, tune and monitor our systems and your business’s data 24/7/365 to ensure you are protected.
The SOC Team protects your business with the combination of machine and human analysis. We use some terms and processes in our service delivery that hopefully give you some context into the workings behind the scenes.
Definition
- Alert – An observable occurrence in a protected server, application, or, more broadly, the internet that may imply a potential threat to an information system or a potential compliance issue.
- Alarm – A pattern of potentially malicious activity that implies an identified threat to an information system, violates acceptable use policies, or circumvents standard security practices. We classify incidents into three threat severity ratings: High, Medium, and Low.
Expert SOC Research, Escalation, and Response
– Identified incidents are reviewed and researched by security certified professionals who:
- Proactively research threats
- Our SOC experts are skilled in threat research and the art of the identification of suspicious activity known in the industry as “Threat Hunting.”
- Escalate priority incidents
Ready 24/7/365, our team of experts are trained in straightforward explanations of security findings. Priority Incidents / Alarms are escalated to you according to your designated escalation path.
- Respond for Remediation
When an escalated incident requires remediation, our SOC experts are available to provide remote remediation assistance and advice.
