Security Operations Center

Security Operations Center (SOC)

Network Secure's Security Operations Center (SOC) is responsible for continuous monitoring, detection, investigation and coordination of the response to cybersecurity incidents.

Operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, our expert team monitors the organization's entire IT infrastructure, correlating events from multiple technologies to identify threats in real time and reduce the risk of business impact.

The SOC brings together people, processes and technology to provide a centralized view of the company's security posture, enabling fast responses, strategic metrics and continuous improvement of Cyber Security maturity.

Key capabilities
24×7 continuous monitoring
Intelligent event correlation and analysis (SIEM)
Security incident management
Threat Intelligence
Threat Hunting
Response automation (SOAR)
Operational and executive dashboards
Metrics management (MTTD, MTTR, SLA and KPIs)
Technical, tactical and executive reports
Managed Detection & Response

Managed Detection & Response (MDR)

Managed Detection & Response (MDR) is a managed service specialized in identifying, investigating and rapidly responding to cyber threats.

More than generating alerts, MDR combines threat intelligence, security experts and advanced technologies to identify real attacks, validate their criticality and take containment actions before they compromise the company's operations.

Our team continuously monitors the client's environment, reducing the time between detection and response and minimizing financial, operational and reputational impact.

The service includes
24×7 expert monitoring
Human investigation of alerts
Threat Intelligence
Threat Hunting
Analysis based on MITRE ATT&CK
Remote incident containment
Remediation recommendations
Comprehensive incident and trend reports
How it works

From alert to response, in five steps.

What happens between a suspicious event in your environment and the containment of the attack.

  1. CollectionLogs and telemetry from endpoints, network, cloud, identity and firewalls flow into the Open-XDR platform.
  2. AI triageThe platform correlates events, discards the noise and enriches what remains with Threat Intelligence.
  3. Human investigationAn analyst validates criticality and maps the attack to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques.
  4. ContainmentResponse actions, automatic or remote, isolate the problem before it spreads.
  5. Report and improvementThe incident becomes a report, a remediation recommendation and a tuning of detection rules.
Incident notification

What reaches your team.

Every incident notification is written so your team can act without opening a security console.

  • Severity and what it means for the business.
  • Affected assets and where they are.
  • What was observed, with the evidence and the MITRE ATT&CK technique.
  • What has already been done to contain the attack.
  • What your team needs to do, step by step.
High severityIllustrative example
Asset

Observed
Service account login after hours from an external IP, followed by mass file reads.
Technique

Containment

Autonomous SOC

The evolution of the SOC: AI decides and acts, the expert is in command.

In a traditional SOC, every alert waits for human action — and event volume becomes a bottleneck. In the Autonomous SOC, the Open-XDR platform performs triage, enriches context with Threat Intelligence and triggers containment automatically, in seconds. The analyst steps in to validate, investigate what is critical and tune the rules.

That's how the operation scales: more coverage, lower mean time to detect and respond (MTTD/MTTR), and experts focused on the threats that require human judgment.

Comparison

SOC × MDR: what's the difference?

Although they are directly related, SOC and MDR have distinct goals. The SOC represents the organization's entire security operations structure — responsible for monitoring, incident management, governance, metrics and ongoing security operations.

MDR is a specialized service within this operation, focused specifically on detecting, investigating and responding to advanced threats. In other words, MDR is one of the capabilities delivered by a modern SOC.

A modern Cyber Security operation

At Network Secure, the SOC goes beyond traditional monitoring. Our operation integrates advanced technologies, threat intelligence and highly qualified experts to deliver a complete view of the organization's security.

Our structure includes
Security Operations Center (SOC)
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
Extended Detection & Response (XDR)
Threat Intelligence
Threat Hunting
Digital Forensics & Incident Response (DFIR)
Vulnerability & Cyber Exposure Management (VM/CEM)
Attack Surface Management (ASM/EASM)
Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR)
Cyber Risk Management

This integrated approach makes it possible to detect threats quickly, respond efficiently and provide strategic insights that support executive decision-making and strengthen the organization's cyber resilience.

Decision

In-house SOC or SOC as a service?

Building your own SOC gives full control, but covering 24 hours a day requires shift rotations, licensed tools and a team that is hard to hire and retain. SOC as a service delivers that operation ready to go.

CriterionIn-house SOCSOC as a service
Time to operateMonths to hire, train and integrate toolsStarts with an operation already in place
24×7 coverageRequires shift rotations and staff replacementIncluded in the service
ToolsSIEM, SOAR and Threat Intelligence bought and maintained by the companyProvider's platform, integrated with your environment
Threat visibilityLimited to your own environmentLearning from many monitored environments
ControlFull, with your own teamDefined by contract, with SLA and reports

Many companies combine both: the in-house team keeps business context and decisions, and SOC as a service ensures continuous coverage.

Terms

MDR, MSS and XDR: what is the difference?

The three terms show up together in sales proposals, but they are not the same thing. Two are services; one is technology.

What it isFocus
MSSManaged security serviceOperate and monitor firewalls, antivirus and other security devices
MDRManaged detection and response serviceInvestigate real threats and contain attacks
XDRTechnologyUnify telemetry from several layers to detect and respond
Metrics

What you track in the reports.

MTTD

Mean time to detect: how long an attack stays in the environment before it is noticed.

MTTR

Mean time to respond: from detection to containment of the incident.

SLA

Response times agreed by contract, tracked incident by incident.

Trends

How incidents evolve over time, to guide investment and priorities.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about SOC and MDR

It is a SOC in which the platform performs triage, context enrichment and containment automatically, in seconds. The analyst steps in to validate, investigate what is critical and refine the rules.

The SOC is the entire security operation (monitoring, incident management, governance and metrics). MDR is the specialized threat detection and response service within that operation.

Yes. Incident monitoring and response happen 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

No. AI handles the volume and repetitive tasks; the experts decide what requires human judgment and lead the most complex investigations.

Yes. Network Secure's SOC is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, audited by Bureau Veritas. The scope covers monitoring, detection, analysis and incident response.

It depends on size and maturity. An in-house SOC gives full control, but requires 24×7 shift staffing, tools and time to mature. SOC as a service delivers a ready operation, with SLA. Many companies combine both.

MSS is the service that operates and monitors security devices, such as firewalls. MDR is the service that investigates real threats and responds to attacks. XDR is the technology that unifies telemetry from several layers to detect and respond.

Reports include metrics such as mean time to detect (MTTD), mean time to respond (MTTR), SLA compliance and the trend of incidents over time.
