Will Decept10's services impact our network performance?
No. Our solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing infrastructure without compromising network speed or efficiency. We use advanced technologies, including our proprietary deception tools, that operate in the background. This ensures robust security while maintaining optimal performance for your day-to-day operations.
How does Decept10's Penetration Testing benefit my organization?
Our penetration testing service comprehensively assesses your network’s vulnerabilities using next-generation software with over 3,500 zero-day attack capabilities. This process identifies and prioritizes security weaknesses, simulates real-world attack scenarios, and provides actionable insights to enhance your security posture. Our certified security engineers offer expert guidance to help refine your security policies and ensure compliance with industry regulations.
What’s the difference between a Security Operations Center (SOC) and a Network Operations Center (NOC)?
While both are crucial for organizational efficiency, they serve different primary purposes. A SOC focuses on cybersecurity and threat detection, monitoring for and responding to security incidents. A NOC, on the other hand, ensures optimal network operation, managing performance and availability. At Decept10, our SOC works in tandem with your existing NOC to ensure both security and performance are optimized.
What does Decept10's Security Operations Center (SOC) team do?
Our SOC team provides comprehensive, round-the-clock security monitoring and management. This includes:
- Real-time threat detection across all network components
- Proactive vulnerability identification and mitigation
- Implementation of our unique deception technology
We continuously update our knowledge of emerging threats, provide rapid incident response, and conduct detailed post-incident analysis to refine your security measures. In the event of a successful attack on the organization, the SOC team is responsible for eliminating the threat and restoring systems and backups as needed.
What are the key components of Decept10's SOC?
Decept10’s Security Operations Center (SOC) is built on three core pillars: people, tools, and processes. Our key components include:
- Expert analysts: 100% US-based cybersecurity professionals
- Deception technology: Our proprietary system for advanced threat detection
- Continuous monitoring: 24/7 vigilance across all network assets
- Threat intelligence: Real-time updates on emerging cyber threats
- Incident response: Rapid action protocols to address security breaches
- Log management: Comprehensive data collection and analysis
- Compliance management: Ensuring adherence to industry regulations
These elements work in harmony to provide a robust, proactive defense against cyber threats tailored to each client’s unique needs.
How do SIEM and SOC differ in Decept10's security ecosystem?
While interconnected, SIEM and SOC serve distinct roles in our security framework. SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) is a tool used within our SOC that collects and analyzes log data from various sources, using AI and machine learning for threat detection. Our SOC, on the other hand, is the overarching security management unit. It utilizes SIEM along with other tools, and is staffed by expert analysts who interpret data, make decisions on threat response, and implement our multi-layered security approach, including our unique deception technology.
Why is a robust SOC crucial for organizations?
A strong SOC, like Decept10’s, provides numerous benefits to organizations. It centralizes and streamlines security operations, enabling faster threat detection and response. Our SOC implements proactive security measures, including our deception technology, which enhances our customer’s overall security posture and ensures regulatory compliance. With 24/7/365 protection, we allow internal IT teams to focus on core business functions. Moreover, our scalable solutions grow with your organization, providing consistent, comprehensive security as your needs evolve.
What does Decept10's XDR (Extended Detection and Response) do?
Decept10’s XDR solution provides comprehensive protection against a wide range of threats, including shellcode attacks and ransomware. It safeguards endpoints, servers, and mobile devices while conducting in-depth forensic analysis across your entire network. Our XDR offers a full 360-degree view of your security landscape and integrates seamlessly with our SOC for enhanced threat detection and response. This integration allows for real-time threat intelligence and automated response capabilities, significantly improving your overall security posture.
What benefits does Decept10's incident response retainer offer?
Our incident response retainer ensures you’re prepared for any security eventuality. Basically, we set aside a block of hours to work on your behalf, including for incident response, penetration testing, and/or CISO as a service at any time during the year.
The retainer guarantees rapid response times for critical incidents and provides customized response plans tailored to your organization’s specific needs. The retainer also grants you priority access to our expert security team, with options for both on-site and remote support. Additionally, it includes proactive threat hunting and regular security posture reviews to help prevent incidents before they occur.
