FEATURE : SECURITY OPERATIONS CENTRE transformation and digitisation efforts can be a major challenge . However , he noted that including security capabilities in these initiatives as early as possible improves resilience and reduces the likelihood that security will be disruptive to users or business processes .
“ This is particularly true when building a SOC , where data collection and incident response can be far more costly and technically challenging when integrated later in the IT engineering process . CIOs should also consider their requirements for a SOC : what are they most concerned about from a cybersecurity perspective , and what capabilities or insights might a SOC offer to alleviate those concerns ,” he asked ?
According to Brown , if an organisation has a CISO role , it should also have some level of security operations centre or service . He pointed out that it has nothing honestly to do with the type of business even though some industry verticals are more targeted than others , but as the market has seen over the last few years , cybercrime touches all verticals , big , small , public , or private .
