What does it cost to run an in-house Security Operations Center (SOC)?
Standing up your own SOC comes with a significant cost.
That cost extends far beyond technology. Organizations must account for the long-term operational overhead of building and maintaining a fully functional security program. This includes hiring and retaining qualified personnel, implementing and integrating the right tools, and establishing repeatable processes to detect, respond to, and manage threats 24/7.
