Our Security Operations Center security analysts, often the first to respond to a cyberattack, ensures SOC processes are followed, keeps stakeholders updated on incident response efforts and  identify threat actors who exploit legitimate applications, bypass security tools, or deploy harmful payloads like malware and ransomware.

By utilizing contextually aware and human-verified analysis, our security engineers go beyond automatic detection to identify even the smallest threats. They collaborate with developers to monitor the company’s security posture, respond to intrusions, and ensure cybersecurity is integrated into the IT systems, examining endpoint and agent surveys to maintain robust protection.

Our SOC managers provide customized incident reports with findings and recommendations after investigations. They also train the team, oversee compliance reports, conduct security audits, develop crisis communication strategies, assess incidents, and establish SOC policies.

With just one click, you can implement the automated remediation actions our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) advise, and we’ll provide detailed recommendations for any additional tasks. The CISO, while collaborating with SOC team members to resolve security issues, has the final say on the company’s cybersecurity policies and strategies.
