SOC as a Service

Put a stop to cybercrime ‒ with an efficient 24/7 security operations center

SOC-as-a-service

Why do organizations need an SOC?

Our security operations center uses state-of-the-art technology to analyze your IT environment according to your protection needs, providing visibility and identifying dependencies that may indicate targeted attacks such as ransomware or malware. Based on this analysis, you can better assess the threat landscape in your infrastructure and cloud, and take appropriate countermeasures. In addition, a SOC as a Service can help you achieve your digitalization goals and meet compliance requirements.

Use cases

Meet all criteria

In order to be insured against cyberattacks, comprehensive protection must be in place. A state-of-the-art security system is a prerequisite for this. A SOC to protect the infrastructure or cloud is a helpful element. Modern cybersecurity insurance companies verify proof of such security strategies with corresponding components as part of the sales process.

Protection from penalties

When data incidents occur, organizations must prove that they had adequate protection in place at the time of the incident. If they succeed in doing so, they may be able to avoid penalties. These are, for example, four percent of the global annual turnover of the previous fiscal year or up to 20 million euros for GDPR violations. Another directive that can be met with a SOC as a service is the IT Security Act (SiG) 2.0 for Critical Infrastructures (KRITIS).
