Certified Professional Underdefense Staff

Many companies struggle to find analysts familiar with the current cybersecurity landscape. Another challenge is determining the staff needed to monitor and manage an internal IT security operations center effectively. Managed soc as a service has certified and trained experts who research and inform you about the latest security trends. Underdefense selects the right personnel to monitor your infrastructure and provides 24/7 monitoring of your environment.

Adapt to The Cyber Security of Your Business Environment

Most organizations must adhere to specific rules, and mistakes in implementing infrastructure can become expensive losses. SOC Underdefense helps organizations meet security standards, potentially saving hundreds of thousands of dollars.

What Tools Does The SOC Vendor Use?

Underdefense deploys multiple programs that cover all aspects of SOC monitoring for effective threat prevention. They work with well-known brands and influential open-source products. If you’ve studied SIEM and other monitoring tools, you know that proper implementation can make your SOC more efficient. Here are the tools Underdefense uses for SOC monitoring: Every security center needs a SIEM tool. These applications collect logs from various infrastructures and endpoints and use advanced analytics to determine if anomalies require further manual investigation. Event logs are essential for cybersecurity analysis in SOC-managed services. Because records are often centralized, your SIEM can integrate logging to analyze traffic patterns. Packet analyzer. SOC security tools, such as a packet analyzer, “listen” to network traffic and allow Underdefense analysts to see the requests and responses passing through the network. Packet Analyzer provides information about anomalies that may leak data from your network or trigger potential sources of malware analysis. In the event of a cyber incident, experts help SOC providers determine the severity of the data breach, gather evidence, and provide information for future investigations.

What are The Benefits of Underdefense Managed SOC Services?

SOC outsourcing provides advanced cybersecurity monitoring and incident response at a fraction of the cost of building your service. Managing an IT security operations center in a corporate office requires a real estate, infrastructure, physical security, personnel, and maintenance budget. Not only is this expensive, but it also gives a false sense of security if the service is not deployed correctly. Other benefits of using the SOC Underdefense service:

Quick response from experienced analysts. As part of the SOC Underdefense managed service, they provide 24/7 monitoring, ensuring that analysts are always ready to respond to identified threats. Analysts also react quickly to threats that breach cybersecurity controls to improve mitigation and remediation.

Reduce cyber security risks. Any environment contains risks; any cybersecurity infrastructure aims to minimize those risks. Adequate external SOC controls reduce the risk of data leakage and associated costs. Scale digital assets faster. Before expanding your infrastructure or adding more endpoints, it’s essential to implement the proper cybersecurity controls, including event detection and monitoring. SOC Underdefense has the tools you need to help you scale your environment faster.

Given today’s threat environment, an IT security strategy requires constant monitoring of all infrastructure components and data traffic. A Security Operations Center (SOC Underdefense) can help an IT professional detect cyberattacks early and significantly reduce the risk of malware.

According to current reports on IT security, there are hundreds of thousands of new types of malware every day. Common entry points include malicious e-mail attachments, disk infections, and malware links increasingly embedded in banner ads, so they often enter the corporate network via individual computers. Through weakly protected security interfaces, malware is transmitted from corporate networks to industrial environments. The wave of attacks affected industrial companies and operators of critical infrastructure worldwide, some of which experienced significant disruptions in their production processes. Underdefense security standards are specially adapted to the requirements of the modern IT environment. The main concepts of security are based primarily on a depth approach. Functional units such as Internet Gateway, Security Zone, and Office Computing are zoned and segmented by security channels.

External Access Control

Weak protection of a direct Internet connection is also a serious security threat. Underdefense places control systems’ Internet-connected threat management components alongside key security factors such as remote engineering intrusions and cyber security compromises in production environments. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt a security approach that protects and controls remote access and is not limited to the local network. The idea is a centralized technical portal at the top with direct access to the network. External access to the specialized portal is possible only through an encrypted connection and requires authentication in the central directory service. To perform specific technical tasks, external service providers first request access to the portal. Here you need to register an ID, identify the target system, and provide information about the duration and type of service process. The service technician will then have temporary access to the security systems.

A comprehensive security concept is needed to balance the protection of small actions with the safety of the local network. Most importantly, it always begins with a detailed security audit that examines your company’s security posture. Here, managers can rely on external experts to provide an external and objective perspective. For example, Underdefense assesses the cybersecurity of production and control systems as part of its Security Maturity Review. The first stage sets the design, organizational structure, and relevant documentation of guidelines and processes. In addition, visits to sites are carried out using Active Directory; network traffic is recorded and analyzed.

How does SOC Underdefense Work?

At Underdefense, SOC design begins with prioritizing the specific business regarding IT infrastructure, information flows, and business areas. Questions that need clarification: Are there network segments with different security requirements that require the gateway to be protected by a security exchange gateway? Is there another SOC? Then, various monitors provide an in-depth inspection of the client-level servers. This includes monitoring data traffic between your network, the Internet (web traffic tracking), and e-mail. Communication by e-mail (monitoring of e-traffic) using intermediary proxy servers. Security measures such as blocking selected domains using AV technologies can detect and block malware and isolate security-critical applications. Malware monitoring also includes device scanning as part of endpoint protection. SOC teams also use IDS tools for security analysis and attack detection. Depending on their security architecture, they complement the actions of firewalls with deep scanning or work directly on the systems they protect. Detected attacks are reported to the SOC administrator via log files. In addition, IPS proactively and automatically prevents potential threats. Detect and analyze Advanced Targeted Attacks (APT) at an early stage with dedicated Underdefense monitoring. Active data traffic analysis on clients and servers reveals possible weak points in the network (vulnerability analysis).

In addition, the SOC team deploys passive sensors at experimentally determined points in the neural network. This includes the technology used by Underdefense. As a passive sensor, it monitors network traffic and looks for anomalies in the system or user behavior. Rules placed on sensors report anomalies to security monitoring systems such as SIEM (Security Information and Event Management). For standard incidents, a corresponding fault request is automatically generated simultaneously. This includes multi-point plans for analysts, and execute the planned incident response, and recording the results. For non-standard events, analysts apply SIEM correlation rules to predefined attack scenarios and manually generate data based on their experience.
