Security Operations Center — 24/7 SOC as a Service
Building a Security Operations Center requires $1-3 million in annual investment — six or more analysts across three shifts, SIEM and SOAR platforms, threat intelligence feeds, and continuous training. Most mid-market organisations cannot justify this cost, leaving them with business-hours-only security monitoring and no threat hunting capability. Opsio's SOC as a Service delivers enterprise-grade security operations — 24/7 monitoring, real-time threat detection, and rapid incident response — at a fraction of in-house SOC costs.

What is Security Operations Center?
A Security Operations Center (SOC) provider is a third-party organisation that delivers 24/7 managed cybersecurity monitoring, threat detection, and incident response, enabling businesses to outsource their security operations without maintaining an in-house team. Core responsibilities covered by a SOC provider include continuous surveillance of networks, endpoints, and cloud infrastructure; SIEM and SOAR platform management for real-time event correlation and automated response; threat hunting to proactively identify adversarial activity before it escalates; incident response and containment to limit breach impact; threat intelligence integration using AI and ML-driven analytics; and compliance support aligned to frameworks such as PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and NIS2. Platforms commonly deployed include Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, Splunk, AWS GuardDuty, and CrowdStrike Falcon, often orchestrated through SOAR tooling to reduce mean time to respond. Building an internal SOC typically demands USD 1 to 3 million annually, covering six or more analysts across rotating shifts, platform licensing, and continuous training, which places the capability beyond practical reach for most mid-market organisations. Leading global providers referenced across the India market include Arctic Wolf, IBM Security, Secureworks, Expel, and Red Canary, alongside India-focused specialists such as Inspira Enterprise, SISA, Seqrite, and Network Intelligence. Opsio delivers SOC as a Service from its ISO 27001-certified Bangalore delivery centre, backed by a 24/7 NOC, a 99.9% uptime SLA, and partnerships across AWS Advanced Tier, Microsoft, and Google Cloud, giving mid-market and Nordic enterprise clients access to enterprise-grade security operations at predictable managed-service pricing.
Enterprise Security Operations Center
A security operations center is only as good as the analysts staffing it and the processes guiding them. Technology alone — even the best SIEM — cannot stop threats. Alerts must be triaged, investigated, and responded to by skilled humans following tested procedures. The challenge is that experienced SOC analysts are expensive, difficult to hire, and even harder to retain. Turnover in SOC roles exceeds 30% annually, creating constant knowledge gaps and training overhead. Opsio's SOC as a Service eliminates the staffing challenge entirely. Our SOC operates 24/7/365 with certified analysts (GCIH, GCFA, OSCP) across follow-the-sun shifts in Sweden and India. Every alert is triaged within 10 minutes, investigated to a determination, and escalated with context when human judgment is needed. Our SOAR platform automates tier-1 response actions — blocking known-bad IPs, isolating compromised endpoints, disabling suspicious accounts — while analysts focus on complex investigations that require human intelligence.
We integrate with your existing security stack — whether you run Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, or Palo Alto tools — and operate within your security policies and compliance framework. The SOC functions as your security team, aligned with your risk appetite and escalation preferences, not as a disconnected third-party service.

Service Deliverables
24/7 Alert Monitoring & Triage
Round-the-clock monitoring of SIEM alerts with triage within 10 minutes. Every alert investigated to determination: true positive, false positive, or benign activity. Contextual enrichment with threat intelligence and environmental context before escalation.
Threat Hunting
Proactive hypothesis-driven threat hunting using MITRE ATT&CK framework. Analysts search for indicators of compromise, living-off-the-land techniques, and advanced persistent threats that bypass automated detection — finding threats before they trigger alerts.
SOAR-Powered Response
Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response playbooks for automated containment: endpoint isolation, IP blocking, account suspension, and malware quarantine. Automated actions execute in seconds while analysts handle complex multi-stage attacks.
Detection Engineering
Continuous development and tuning of SIEM detection rules mapped to MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Custom detections for your industry-specific threat landscape, false positive tuning, and new rule deployment as emerging threats are identified.
Incident Management & Forensics
Full incident lifecycle management: detection, containment, investigation, eradication, recovery, and lessons learned. Forensic analysis with timeline reconstruction, indicator extraction, and regulatory-grade documentation for GDPR, NIS2, and HIPAA notification.
