It wasn’t too many years ago that only large-scale organizations and enterprises were compelled to worry about cybersecurity. They were the primary targets for malicious actors, and so they seemed to be the only ones thinking about defense. But just like most things, that has completely changed. Small and medium-sized businesses are just as vulnerable to cyberattacks. Without the size and resources to bring security in-house, most turn to managed security service providers (MSSPs) for help.

In today’s increasingly complex and evolving threat landscape, Security Operations Centers (SOCs) have become the nerve center for protecting critical national and local government assets. Building and maintaining an in-house SOC is often beyond the reach of many government agencies due to budget constraints, the need for skilled personnel, and the rapid growth of cyber threats.
