Your Remote Security Command and Control Center

What is SOC?

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a centralized command function that continuously monitors and provides close to real-time updates on an organization’s security status. The SOC team detects, analyzes, and responds to incidents and helps mitigate the impact of security threats. The team monitors the organization’s systems to quickly identify and highlight cyber threats and provides additional information on where a threat originated and the potential weaknesses that it is targeting. The threats attacking an organization are relentless and the SOC team acts as the first line of defense and as the early warning system alerting the organization about the potential attacks.

Netcon SOC services are broadly structured into three parts. They are:

Monitoring Security Events

Our SOC experts:

  • Provide continuous 24/7 proactive monitoring
  • Collate logs from multiple sources and analyze them
  • Detect threats and act as an early warning system for potential attacks
  • Discard false positives and detect actual threats and its target
  • Gain knowledge about the latest security innovations
  • Keep track of threats until closure

Remediation

On the event of identifying an emerging threat, our team:

  • Alerts the customer about the issue
  • Secure critical logs for analysis
  • Assists customers in remediation by identifying / localizing the threat and segregating them
  • Continue to monitor for assessing the effectiveness of the remediation
  • Work with the customer to identify and implement a permanent solution to mitigate future attacks of a similar nature

Post-Incident Analysis

In the aftermath of an incident, our SOC experts:

  • Investigate the root cause of the issue
  • Secure critical logs for further forensic analysis and compliance requirements for a longer term as required
  • Refine tools, co-relation and tactics to prevent similar problems in future
  • Outline a security roadmap for security improvements
  • Update the training measures and knowledge sharing sessions for the SOC team on the new incident types and the remedial measures

Some open issues may not be closed immediately. Resolution of Security Incidents may take days, weeks and even months.

Average time taken to identify and contain a breach is approximately 280 days

Companies take about 197 days to identify and 69 days to contain a breach
