What is SOC as a Service (SOCaaS)?

SOC as a Service (SOCaaS) is a managed security service that provides organizations with a fully outsourced Security Operations Center. Svalbard Security's SOCaaS in Vancouver offers 24/7 security monitoring, threat detection, and incident response with a 4.6-minute average response time. It's typically 60-70% less expensive than building an in-house SOC.

What is the difference between MDR, XDR, and SOCaaS?

MDR (Managed Detection & Response) focuses on threat detection and response with human analysts. XDR (Extended Detection & Response) provides unified threat detection across all attack vectors (endpoints, network, cloud, email). SOCaaS provides a complete managed Security Operations Center. Svalbard Security offers all three services from our Vancouver-based SOC, and we help clients choose the right solution for their needs.
