What Does SOC Stand for? Who Needs SOC and Why?

An information Security Operations Centre is a computing facility dedicated to housing the information security team responsible for monitoring and analyzing cyber threats, 24×7. Cyber SOC is responsible for monitoring and analyzing cyber incidents to defend networks against sophisticated and evolving threats. Uniformly, a SOC team consists of experienced security analysts and engineers overseen by managers working cohesively alongside the incident response team to ensure early warnings are addressed.

In general, SOC benefits us in meeting standards, regulatory requirements, security monitoring, threat, and incident response management. Regardless of the sector or nature of the business, a SOC in any organization aims to defend security breaches and mitigate risks providing an upper hand in controlling and decision-making, which indirectly protects the company from contingencies like financial losses or reputation deterioration.

What Does a SOC Do?

A SOC consists of a team of experts providing analytical responses and suggestions to ensure critical security incidents are responded to, despite existing technologies that monitor endpoints, applications, IPS, or firewalls for cyber threats. Acquiring a competent team of SOC would benefit any business considering a skilled security team. Likewise, the qualified SOC team looks out for potential threats and passes them on for appropriate measures to be taken, which indirectly reduces the business downtime and ensuring business continuity.

In today’s environment, businesses cannot afford downtime. In the event of a breach, the SOC notifies the stakeholders on security incidents. A SOC is responsible for providing audit and compliance support to match government, corporate, and industry regulations requirements. The managed security services tools used by modern SOCs aggregates security data from across the organization to generate a detailed compliance audit and reports.
