Cyber Security Operations Centre (SOC) Managed Services for your cloud and on premise IT environment. Working together to make your organisation safer.

Continual threat hunting is essential

as threat prevention eventually fails.

BlueSOC can help with early detection of suspicious activity against one or more security layers via our virtual SOC, to provide an opportunity for preventing a security breach.

Collecting and analysing cyber security threats

Prepare

Collect and analyse security events for identification of threats and indicators of compromise through SIEMs such as Sentinel. Define incident response processes and carry out testing of cyber incident management preparations.

Security monitoring and threat hunting

Detect

Cyber security analysts within our virtual SOC carry out security monitoring and threat hunting activities using advanced rule-based logic and machine learning analysis for the identification of potential security incidents in real time.

Response processes to contain security incidents

Respond

Triage and investigation of suspicious events from SIEMs and additional sources using pre-defined playbooks and work flows. Invocation of response processes to contain and assist in recovering from a cyber security incident.

Constant monitoring, always curious and never complacent.
