A 7/24 Security Operations Center (SOC) provides continuous monitoring and protection of an organization's digital assets.
It involves a team of security analysts who work around the clock to detect, analyze, and respond to potential cyber threats. This includes monitoring network traffic, analyzing security alerts, and investigating incidents.
Key functions of a 7/24 SOC include:
- Threat Detection: Identifying malicious activity.
- Incident Response: Containing and mitigating security breaches.
- Vulnerability Management: Identifying and addressing weaknesses in systems.
- Security Monitoring: Continuously observing security systems and logs.
The goal is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization's information.
