Security Operations Center (SOC)

A security operations center (SOC) is a centralized facility or team responsible for monitoring and responding to security incidents and threats.

A security operations center (SOC) is a critical component of cybersecurity for the Internet of Things (IoT) industry. It is a centralized facility or team responsible for monitoring and responding to security incidents and threats related to IoT devices and networks.A SOC typically uses specialized security controls and technologies, such as intrusion detection systems, firewalls, and security information and event management (SIEM) systems, to monitor and analyze network traffic and system logs for signs of suspicious activity. The team may also use machine learning algorithms and other advanced techniques to identify and respond to emerging threats.In addition to technology, a SOC also involves policies and procedures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. This may include incident response plans, disaster recovery plans, and other strategies to minimize the impact of security incidents and ensure business continuity.
