To select a suitable virtual SOC solution for your business, you need to think about a variety of factors.

Flexible extension of your security team: Beyond 24/7 monitoring, a virtual SOC must also include threat hunting and research, data engineering and science, and solution architects that work as a seamless extension to your team.

Availability: Does the virtual SOC provide 24/7/365 coverage with an expected uptime of 99.999%? Locations: While many virtual SOC providers use cloud-based solutions, the main value proposition of a virtual SOC is its people.

Platform capabilities: Does the technology used by the virtual SOC support phased onboarding of data sources? One of the main goals of a virtual SOC is rapid deployment and a quick monitoring turnaround.

When choosing a virtual SOC solution for your business it's important to choose a provider that will not only detect but also help respond to threats.

A virtual SOC solution takes on the weight of identifying, training and retraining talent to deliver to you a team ready to watch for the attackers at the gate.
