SOC (Security Operations Center)

What is a SOC?

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a central unit responsible for monitoring and protecting a network from security threats. SOC teams analyze incident reports, respond to cyber attacks and implement protective measures to secure the company’s IT infrastructure.

Advantages and functions

SOC teams provide round-the-clock protection, detect suspicious activity at an early stage and minimize the impact of security incidents. They use tools such as SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) to analyze data flows and identify potential threats. SOCs are particularly indispensable in large companies, financial institutions and critical infrastructures, where security requirements are especially high.
