Benefits of Building vs Buying Your Security

Frost & Sullivan TCO Analysis: Building Your Own SOC vs. Buying SOC-as-a-Service For modern businesses, a Security Operations Center (SOC) is no longer an option. It is a necessity. But building and maintaining a fully functional SOC is a daunting proposition. Cost is a top consideration, driven overwhelmingly by a SOC’s need for a high number of in-demand security experts. Hiring, training, and retaining the necessary talent to staff a SOC is flatly impractical for many businesses. Fortunately there is a viable alternative to a DIY SOC: SOC-as-a-Service. In this webinar, Michael Suby, VP of Research at Frost & Sullivan, will highlight the compelling value proposition of SOC-as-a-Service compared to building and maintaining an in-house SOC. Included in this webinar are: - Real-world use cases of businesses subscribing to SOC-as-a-Service - Head-to-Head quantitative cost comparisons between SOC-as-a-Service and DIY SOC - Attributes to demand in a SOC-as-a-Service offering About our key speaker: A 17-year veteran at Frost & Sullivan, Michael Suby, VP of Research, has concentrated on the evolving threat landscape, practices, and technologies in cybersecurity.
