NCC Group launches SOC as a Service to help customers experiencing resource shortages and office closures

Here at NCC Group, we’re exploring how we can help businesses around the world during the outbreak of COVID-19. We’ve decided to do this in the best way we know how – by offering our cyber security expertise through new solutions which can be provided remotely.

Our latest offering here is our quick-turnaround remote Security Operations Centre (SOC) solution to businesses that may be struggling to keep their in-house SOCs running due to resourcing issues or office closure. This remote SOC can be set up in a matter of days without needing to step foot on a client site, helping us to quickly alleviate some of the pressure our customers may be facing when it comes to maintaining around-the-clock security monitoring.

The SOC as a Service solution has launched with short term contracts, (as little as three months), rather than a typically longer three year contract and will include a full upfront health check and assessment, as well as fully-managed detection and response services, providing businesses with peace of mind.

NCC Group helps secure more than 15,000 clients worldwide and we’re doing what we can to give organisations access to that expertise – fast, no fuss and trustworthy security.

Tim Anderson, group commercial director, NCC Group, said: “NCC Group exists to make the world a safer place and we’re working with clients to understand what they need and to rapidly evolve our services to adapt to their new ways of working. By working together we are helping to protect businesses around the world and keeping them resilient in these challenging times.”
