Building and maintaining an in-house SOC can be costly, as it requires significant investment in technology, personnel, and ongoing maintenance. A managed SOC, on the other hand, allows organizations to outsource these costs to a third-party provider.
Managed SOC providers often have access to the latest security technologies, which allows organizations to benefit from the latest advancements in security without having to invest in them.
A managed SOC can scale its services to match an organization’s changing security needs, whereas building an in-house SOC may require significant investment in resources, even when security requirements are not as high.
Building and maintaining an in-house SOC can be time-consuming, as it requires the organization to dedicate resources and personnel to the task. A managed SOC allows organizations to focus on their core business activities.
Managed SOC providers typically have a team of experienced and certified security experts who can provide a higher level of expertise than an in-house team.
Managed SOC providers can often assist organizations with compliance and regulatory requirements, such as HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, etc.

The main difference between a Managed Security Operations Center (SOC) and a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service is in the scope and focus of their offerings.
A Managed SOC provides round-the-clock monitoring and protection for an organization’s IT infrastructure and data. The SOC team is responsible for identifying potential security threats, analysing them, and taking appropriate measures to protect the organisation’s assets and data. The team is made up of a combination of people, processes and technology to provide round-the-clock monitoring and protection for an organisation’s IT infrastructure and data.
On the other hand, an MDR service is more focused on detection and response to security incidents. MDR services use advanced technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence to detect and respond to potential threats in real-time. They also provide an incident response plan, and a team of experts who can investigate and resolve security incidents as they occur.
So, in summary, a Managed SOC provides a more comprehensive security solution, including monitoring and protection, whereas an MDR service is more focused on identifying and responding to security incidents. Both are great options to ensure that your organisation’s security needs are met in the most efficient, cost-effective and expert manner possible!
