SOC Management FAQs
SOC Management includes all the monitoring and management of:
- Intrusion detection systems
- Firewalls
- Antivirus and antispam systems
- Virtual private networks (VPNs)
- Endpoint protection (EPP)
- Endpoint detection and response (EDR)
Almost every business nowadays has some form of defensive cyber security equipment, such as a firewall, intrusion detection, URL filtering, email filtering, and antivirus. These are the fundamentals for protecting your employees from the internet’s Wild West, but is this equipment sufficient to keep your company truly safe?
Without SOC Management, your organisation has no way of reporting vulnerabilities or threats, and may not have the in-house team with enough experience and knowledge to efficiently reduce your exposure.
SOC management should be conducted by an external service provider to ensure there is zero bias in the testing and remediation process. Gridware is technologically agnostic, meaning we will not force your organisation to implement technological measures that we believe are unnecessary.
It also ensures that the investigation is run independently from the business by technical experts who are familiar with the latest developments in exploits and both international and industry standards.
