SOC is a critical component of an organisation's cybersecurity strategy, providing proactive threat detection, rapid incident response, and continuous monitoring capabilities to protect against cyber threats and ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets.

 

At Revio we provide a Security Operations Center (SOC) service which is a centralised facility & team responsible for continuously monitoring and analysing an organisation's security posture, detecting and responding to security incidents, and ensuring the overall security of its information systems and data. A SOC plays a critical role in cybersecurity by providing real-time threat intelligence, incident detection, and incident response capabilities.

Here are the types of activities we undertake as part of our full-service SOC solution:​​​

1. Continuous Monitoring:
   The primary function of a SOC is to continuously monitor an organisation's networks, systems, applications, and endpoints for security events and anomalies. Revio’s SOC analysts use a variety of tools, such as security information and event management (SIEM) systems, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions, to collect and analyse security data in real-time.
    

2. Threat Detection and Analysis:
   Revio SOC analysts identify and analyse security threats, including malware infections, suspicious network traffic, unauthorised access attempts, and other indicators of compromise (IOCs). They correlate and analyse security events to distinguish between legitimate activities and potential security incidents, using threat intelligence feeds and security analytics to enhance detection capabilities.
    

3. Incident Response and Remediation:
   When a security incident is detected, Revio SOC analysts initiate incident response procedures to contain, mitigate, and remediate the threat. They follow predefined incident response playbooks and workflows to investigate security incidents, assess their impact, and coordinate response activities with relevant stakeholders, including IT teams, security personnel, and management.
    

4. Forensic Analysis and Investigation:
   Revio SOC analysts conduct forensic analysis and investigation of security incidents to determine the root cause, extent of impact, and potential indicators of compromise. They collect and preserve evidence, analyse malware samples, and reconstruct attack timelines to support incident response efforts and improve future security defences.
    

5. Threat Hunting:
   In addition to responding to security incidents, our SOC analysts proactively hunt for hidden threats and vulnerabilities within an organisation's infrastructure. They leverage threat intelligence, security analytics, and advanced detection techniques to identify potential threats and vulnerabilities that may evade your traditional security controls.
    

6. Security Awareness and Training:
   Revio has SOC training which promotes security awareness and training among employees and stakeholders.  We provide guidance on security best practices, incident reporting procedures, and response protocols to help mitigate human-related security risks and enhance the organisation's overall security posture.
    

7. Collaboration and Communication:
   The SOC serves as a central hub for collaboration and communication between different teams within an organisation, including IT, security, legal, compliance, and executive leadership. Revio SOC analysts communicate security alerts, incident findings, and recommendations to stakeholders, enabling informed decision-making and timely response to security threats.
    

8. Continuous Improvement:
   SOC operations are continuously reviewed and refined to adapt to evolving cyber threats, technologies, and business requirements. The Revio SOC team conducts regular assessments, evaluations, and exercises to identify gaps, improve processes, and enhance the effectiveness of security operations.
