SOC Advisory & Setup

Monitoring you can actually staff

Design and stand-up of security monitoring sized to your team — in-house, hybrid, or managed.

PROTOCOL OVERVIEW

Executive Context & Technical Scope

A SOC is a staffing commitment before it is a technology purchase. We help you decide the right model, design the logging and detection coverage that matters for your threat profile, write the detection rules and playbooks, and get your analysts to the point where alerts lead to actions instead of accumulating.

PRACTITIONER FAQ

Frequently Asked Scoping Questions

24/7 or business hours?
24/7 in-house needs roughly eight to ten analysts to sustain. Below that scale, hybrid with a managed provider for out-of-hours is usually the honest answer.
Which SIEM?
Decided after the log volume estimate, because licensing models differ enough that the cheapest platform changes with your data profile.
