Security Event Logging, Monitoring and Alerting

Many organizations have tens of millions of log events pass through their networks in a single day. Proficio’s ProSOC service prioritizes which of these events require action or investigation using a combination of powerful SIEM technology and 24×7 analysis by trained security experts.

Without accurate real-time event monitoring, correlation, and expert analysis, critical security events can be lost in the noise or not acted upon until it is too late to avoid a serious security incident like a data breach. The ProSOC monitoring and alerting service includes:

  • Real-time, 24x7x365 expert monitoring and analysis
  • Alert notification within 15 minutes of High Priority Event
  • Actionable alerts with remediation recommendations
  • 24×7 access to SOC Help Desk
  • Customized notification and escalation policies
