What Is a Managed Security Operations Center (SOC)?

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a team of cybersecurity experts and advanced threat detection tools that monitor, analyze, and respond to security incidents in real time.

With a managed SOC, your business gets:

• 24/7 security monitoring to detect and stop cyber threats before they cause damage.
• Real-time alerts and automated responses to prevent data breaches.
• Advanced threat intelligence to identify and neutralize sophisticated attacks.
• Compliance and regulatory support to meet industry standards like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and NY SHIELD Act.

Why Long Island Businesses Need a Managed SOC

Cybercriminals target SMBs because they assume smaller companies lack the resources for strong cybersecurity. But that doesn’t have to be true. A Managed SOC brings enterprise-level security to small and midsize businesses at a fraction of the cost.

Here’s how businesses across Long Island are benefiting:

1. Proactive Threat Detection & Response
A manufacturing company in Hauppauge was targeted by a ransomware attack, but their SOC detected unusual activity and shut down the threat before data was encrypted.

2. Compliance & Data Security
A healthcare provider in Westbury needed to meet HIPAA regulations for patient data security. A Managed SOC provided continuous monitoring and automatic compliance reporting.

3. Cost Savings & Business Continuity
A law firm in Mineola lost thousands of dollars in downtime after a phishing attack. With a SOC in place, incidents are detected before they can disrupt operations.
