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.

GDPR · CASL · CCPA

Marketing security, built for compliance

Client data is the product — and regulators under GDPR, CASL, and CCPA treat a breach as the company's failure, not the attacker's luck. Heimdall guards personal data flows 24/7 across every CRM, ad platform, and marketing automation tool in your stack. Ragnarok tests your client-facing systems and data processor integrations before a breach does. Together they generate GDPR Article 32 technical measures evidence, CASL consent audit trails, and DSR response documentation that reduces your exposure to regulatory action.

Ragnarok

Penetration tests before a breach tests you

Ragnarok scans your client-facing portals, API integrations, and data processor connections continuously. It tests authentication, data access controls, and third-party integrations that carry personal data — the attack surface that regulators look at first after a breach.

Heimdall + Ragnarok

Data processor monitoring and DSR response support

Marketing and advertising companies typically process personal data on behalf of many clients, with data flowing through dozens of third-party processors. Heimdall tracks every processor connection. Ragnarok tests them. When a Data Subject Request arrives, Heimdall can map data flows in minutes rather than days — reducing DSR response time from weeks to hours and satisfying GDPR Article 30 records of processing requirements.
