Today, navigating cyber threats requires more than just basic defences. With threats evolving constantly, it’s crucial to have a robust strategy in place.
Our Security Operations Centre (SOC) is here to support and protect your business through continuous monitoring and strategic threat management. By utilising advanced security tools and a team of professionals, we work to ensure your organisation’s security remains secure, even during weekends and holidays.

A Security Operations Centre is a centralised facility that houses an expert team responsible for monitoring and managing an organisation’s cyber security posture. Imagine having a dedicated security guard who watches over your office 24/7, ready to respond to any suspicious activity, ensuring your assets remain safe at all times.
Unlike systems that wait for normal business hours, a SOC takes immediate, proactive action as soon as a threat is identified. This includes detecting, analysing, and responding to cybersecurity incidents in real-time. Serving as a hub for comprehensive security operations, the SOC is equipped with advanced security information and event management (SIEM) systems to ensure timely threat detection and response. It’s akin to a fire alarm system that not only alerts you to danger but also automatically calls the fire brigade to tackle the flames before they spread, minimising damage and disruption.
Cyber threats don’t clock off at 6pm—and neither does our SOC. We provide around-the-clock security monitoring to identify and neutralise threats before they impact your business. Our dedicated SOC analysts are on watch every hour of the day, ensuring your systems are protected at all times.
Many attacks start subtly. Our SOC uses state-of-the-art Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and SIEM technologies to catch unusual behaviour early on, before it can develop into serious threats like ransomware or data theft.
Our SOC isn’t just about automated alerts; it’s staffed by a reactive security operations team skilled at spotting early warning signs and acting promptly to prevent issues from escalating. This human element, led by an experienced SOC manager, is critical in maintaining a strong security posture and effective security architecture.

Always-on protection
Whether it’s a bank holiday or 2am on a Sunday, our SOC is always there, catching what others might miss.
By outsourcing your SOC needs to us, you gain access to a team of experts who are solely focused on improving your organisation’s security. This reduces the risk of security breaches and enhances your overall security posture.
Hackers often wait until you’re offline. SOC coverage ensures you’re not left vulnerable when attackers expect you to be. Our SOC services are scalable, meaning they can grow with your business.
Whether you are a small business or a large enterprise, our solutions are tailored to meet your specific security needs without the overhead costs of maintaining an in-house SOC.
Human insights in real-time
Software can’t match the instinct and skill of a trained analyst. The SOC adds real-time, human-led decision making to your defences. Building and maintaining a 24/7 SOC in-house can be prohibitively expensive.
We offer our SOC as a service, providing all the benefits of a full-time security team at a fraction of the cost.
The SOC continuously adapts to the evolving threat landscape, ensuring your security measures are always up to date.
We also help ensure compliance with industry standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), to protect your business from regulatory penalties.
Our SOC operates through a three-stage process:
Using advanced SIEM tools, our Security Operations Centre actively monitors for any signs of abnormal activity. Security analysts review system reports to identify potential threats, ensuring rapid detection and response.
Once a threat is detected, our SOC team conducts a thorough investigation to understand its nature and potential impact. This involves analysing security data from multiple sources to determine the best response.
After identifying the threat, our team implements a response plan to contain and mitigate the incident. This includes isolating affected systems, restoring normal operations, and ensuring your security infrastructure is reinforced against future threats.
A business in the finance sector, with 37 computers and 1 server, narrowly avoided a significant disaster thanks to having a SOC in place. Over a weekend, the SOC team detected a suspicious login attempt that hinted at a potential breach. They quickly identified and isolated the threat, preventing any further access.
Had the SOC not intervened, the scenario on Monday morning would have been drastically different. Employees would have found themselves unable to log in to their computers, faced with alarming ransomware messages demanding a Bitcoin ransom for the decryption of their data. This would have led to immediate operational disruption, potential financial loss, and a stressful scramble to meet client obligations while managing reputational damage. Instead, the client was greeted with a detailed report of the incident and the proactive measures taken, allowing them to continue business as usual without any impact.
Choosing our SOC means partnering with a team dedicated to protecting your business from cyber threats. Our services are designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing operations, providing you with peace of mind knowing your security is in expert hands.
We aim to be an extension of your team, ensuring your cybersecurity strategy is both proactive and aligned with your business goals. By clearly defining the roles and responsibilities within our SOC, we ensure a cohesive and effective approach to maintaining your organisation’s security.
