What is Security as a Service (SECaaS)? 

Security as a Service (SECaaS) is a cloud-based model where a security provider delivers cybersecurity services (monitoring, detection, response, management) to an organization on a subscription basis — rather than the organization having to build all security capabilities in-house.

 What is SOC? 

SOC (Security Operations Center as a Service) refers to the centralized facility and team responsible for monitoring, analyzing, and responding to security incidents within an organization. 

A SOC typically utilizes a combination of technologies, processes, and skilled personnel to ensure a rapid and effective response to security events. Key functions of a SOC include:

•   Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of network traffic, system logs, and other security-related data sources to detect potential security incidents.
•   Analysis:  Skilled analysts assess the data collected, looking for patterns and anomalies that might indicate a security threat.
•  Incident Response:  In the event of a security incident, the SOC takes appropriate actions to contain and mitigate the threat.
•  Forensics:  Investigating and analyzing incidents after they occur to understand the nature of the attack, identify vulnerabilities, and improve future security measures.
•  Threat Intelligence:  Incorporating information about current threats and vulnerabilities into the security monitoring process.
