Why not Inhouse Cybersecurity Operations
- Increasingly complex cybersecurity landscape.
- Severe alerts and regulation fatigue, and complex compliance issues.
- Growing skills gap: Tactics are changing.
- Increasingly number of dedicated and specialized people.
- High cost and complexities of in-house cybersecurity operations.
- Large strategic framework and there is also individual responsibility. Each SMB must act proactively!
- Cost of response time.
- The longer the dwell time of an incident, the more difficult and expensive it is to retain, remediate and contain.
- SMBs are an attractive target for cyber-criminals.
- High costs to build and manage a SOC.
- Complexity to implement, manage and maintain a security information and event management (SIEM) solution.

Digital Forensics
Almost every crime leaves behind digital data. Anyone who is able to evaluate them can convict offenders. In order for them to be effectively prosecuted in cyberspace, the traces on digital devices must be traced back to their source and secured in such a way that they can also be used as evidence in criminal proceedings in court. In differentiating itself from IT security, which asks: "What could happen?", digital forensics deals with the question: "What happened?” The procedure of an IT forensic analysis is always the same, both in terms of structure and methodology. It comprises the steps of identification, data backup, analysis, documentation and preparation. Results can also be used to analyse and resolve IT malfunctions or failures.
Log Management
Logs are the outermost sensors of a system, which provide valuable information in real-time. This information allows a SOC to create an overview of the current state of health of an IT system and to assess the danger situation. Operational management urgently needs a differentiated and complete system view. On the one hand, to ensure that the system is as stable as possible, but also to see the risks and dangers on the radar as early as possible. And to carry out forensic analysis afterwards, as required.
Managed Detection and Response
Provided as a service, Managed Detection and Response (MDR) is a comprehensive and efficient defense against all kinds of potential cyber-security threats. When set up, MDR provides complete visibility, monitoring and alerting in your networks. MDR identifies possible threats and react accordingly. Orchestrate security response quickly and purposefully. Inclusion of machine learning methods to overcome even completely unknown challenges.
Security Analysis
Real-time monitoring is worthless without an underlying security analysis that enables gathered data to be scrutinized by subject matter specialists to identify potential threats to customer environments. The analysis is enhanced by cyber intelligence insights, threat triage, malware dissection and forensics services. Socurity® uses state-of-the-art technology to detect and analyze security events. Both manual and automated procedures are in place to enable an efficient security analysis, as well as feedback-loop towards the customers in form of awareness building, situational awareness, and optionally definition of countermeasures to respond to detected threats.
Security Incident Management
Security Incident Management involves incident monitoring, reporting, impact assessment, incident escalation and post incident review. SOCurity® incident team is responsible for analyzing and handling the security threats and impact of information security incidents and to drive the process as efficiently as possible.
Security Monitoring
Real-time visibility into a company's entire network and security environment. Continuous Monitoring of critical context, malware and suspicious traffic, new systems and unusual connections and abnormal behavior within your network. Includes the definition of behavior that should trigger alerts and the implementation of alerts when required. Also determines the current security status and visualizes it for management.
Threat Hunting
Threat Hunting aims to use machines to proactively search for vulnerabilities in networks and identify possible attack patterns before they are applied. Find possible infiltration points based on hypotheses and specific clues and to translate these findings into automated rules and scripts that are fed into the security infrastructure. Supported by Machine Learning (ML) to examine huge amounts of data in shortest time, check for deviating patterns and take defensive measures.
Threat Intelligence
SAMA PARTNERS Threat Intelligence Service can collect, filter and analyze data on IT security threats from various sources and deliver it in a usable form. Focused on informing decision-makers and improving their decisions.
Vulnerability Management
Attackers follow their own economy; they prefer easy targets. Protective measures should therefore be aimed at improving to a high level of digital resilience. This requires a structured setup of various security solutions and carefully maintained IT systems. Vulnerability Management provides a continuous overview, helps to classify newly found security holes. Derivation of the necessary need for action with corresponding recommendations for measures and the prioritization of security gaps.
