Definition

What is a managed SOC?

A managed SOC (Security Operations Center) is a service that continuously monitors the security of your information system, operated by cybersecurity experts external to your company.

In most SMEs, the basics are already in place (firewall, antivirus, backups), but no centralized monitoring exists to quickly detect a compromise or an abnormal behavior. That's exactly what our managed SOC offer covers.

We deploy monitoring agents on your workstations and servers, centralize your security event logs (firewall, Microsoft 365, Active Directory...), and continuously analyze this data to detect the signals of an ongoing attack.

When an alert is raised, we qualify, investigate and handle the incident, before guiding you through the corrective actions to put in place.

Why a managed SOC?

Building an in-house security monitoring capability means hiring analysts, buying and maintaining a detection platform, and staying on call, a cost and a commitment most SMEs simply can't justify. A managed SOC gives you the same outcome without that burden.

Detect a compromise in hours or days instead of months, the average time it takes to notice an intrusion without monitoring
Meet the security expectations increasingly required by cyber-insurers and by regulations such as NIS2
Get a human expert analyzing what matters, instead of a dashboard nobody has time to watch
Free your internal IT team to focus on your business, not on chasing security alerts

Scope

What's included

We operate the entire chain, from monitoring to incident response, so you don't have to.

Continuous monitoring

Continuous monitoring of your infrastructure: workstations, servers, network, and cloud.

Detection & correlation

Analysis and correlation of security events to identify the early signals of an attack.

Agent deployment

Installation and configuration of monitoring agents across your entire fleet.

Alert management

Qualification, analysis, and handling of every security alert.

Incident response

In-depth investigation and remediation recommendations when an incident is confirmed.

Reporting & follow-up

A monthly report and a follow-up meeting to support your security decisions.

Onboarding

How the onboarding works

From the first exchange to going live, we handle the technical setup so supervision starts smoothly.

1. Scoping

We qualify your environment (number of workstations, systems, firewall, Microsoft 365...) and define the scope to be monitored.

2. Deployment

We install the monitoring agents on your workstations and servers, and integrate your log sources (firewall, M365, Active Directory...).

3. Tuning

We adjust detection rules to your environment to reduce false positives and maximize the relevance of alerts.

4. Go-live

Supervision officially starts, with tests to validate that alerts are correctly raised and handled.

Operations

How it works day to day

Behind the dashboards, there's a real operational process, and above all, a human being reviewing every alert that matters.

What happens when an alert fires?

Automatic detection by our monitoring platform.
Qualification and analysis by one of our security experts.
In-depth investigation if the alert is confirmed.
Remediation actions and closure and documentation of the incident.

How do we support you?

A monthly supervision report (alerts, incidents, trends).
A regular follow-up meeting with a security expert.
Concrete recommendations to strengthen your security over time.
A single point of contact in case of a crisis.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What hours does the SOC operate?

Automated monitoring and detection run continuously. Our security experts qualify and handle alerts during business hours. An on-call option is available for extended coverage outside business hours, tailored to your risk level.

Does this replace our antivirus or firewall?

No. A managed SOC complements your existing security tools (firewall, antivirus, backups). It adds the missing piece: centralized monitoring and human analysis to detect and respond to what those tools alone cannot catch.

How is the price of a managed SOC determined?

The price mainly depends on the number of workstations and servers to be monitored, and the sources to integrate (firewall, Microsoft 365, Active Directory...). We provide a customized quote after a short qualification call.

How long does it take to go live?

It depends on the size and complexity of your environment, but a typical onboarding, from scoping to go-live, takes one to two weeks: agent deployment, log source integration, and detection rule tuning.

What happens if a false positive is raised?

Our experts qualify every alert before escalating it. Most false positives are identified and closed during this qualification step, without disrupting your teams.

Can you monitor a hybrid or cloud environment?

Yes. Beyond on-premise workstations and servers, we can integrate cloud sources such as Microsoft 365 or Azure into the monitoring scope.

What do we need to provide to get started?

Mainly administrator access to deploy monitoring agents on your workstations and servers, and the ability to export logs from your firewall and other relevant sources. We guide you through the exact prerequisites during onboarding.
