Managed SOC Services: Your 24/7 shield against cyber threats

Professional security monitoring without your own SOC team – we detect attacks in minutes, not weeks
 While you sleep, cybercriminals are at work. An Emotet trojan bypasses your antivirus, an attacker exploits a zero-day vulnerability, or ransomware slowly encrypts your backups. Our Security Operations Center detects these threats within minutes and stops them before real damage is done.

Why Managed SOC Services

icon_security_white

Skilled labor shortage

The skilled labor shortage hits cybersecurity especially hard: qualified SOC analysts are rare and expensive. An internal SOC can quickly cost €500,000 per year – without any guarantee that you'll find the right people.

24/7 threat

Cybercriminals never sleep: attacks happen outside of business hours. Without 24/7 monitoring, breaches are often discovered only weeks later.

Compliance requires visibility

Compliance is becoming mandatory: DORA, NIS2, and ISO 27001 require continuous monitoring. A SOC supports you in implementing these requirements.

SOC explained in 20 seconds

A Security Operations Center (SOC) continuously monitors your IT infrastructure for security incidents. While traditional tools only send alerts, a SOC analyzes these alerts, correlates them, and initiates immediate countermeasures.

SOC as a Service (SOCaaS) means: you get all the benefits of a professional SOC without setup costs and staffing effort.

The three pillars of modern SOC architectures

Area What it’s about Typical vulnerabilities

People

Certified analysts around the clock

Staff shortages, lack of expertise

Processes

Standardized incident response

Response takes days instead of minutes

Technology

SIEM, EDR, Threat Intelligence

Outdated tools, too many false positives

Building your own SOC takes 12-18 months. SOC by PCG starts in 2-4 weeks

You need SOCaaS if you:

  • Need to meet compliance requirements (e.g., ISO 27001, DORA, NIS2)
  • No internal SOC team (or unable to afford one)
  • Operating critical systems (24/7 availability required)
  • Processing sensitive data (customer data, financial data, intellectual property)

The Most Common SOC Pitfalls

What goes Wrong Why it Happens What it Costs You How to do it Right

Flood of False Positives

SIEM without tuning generates 1000+ alerts daily.

IT team overloaded, real threats overlooked.

Expert team configures use cases correctly.

“We do have logs, after all”

Collecting logs ≠ Analyzing logs

Attacks remain undetected for weeks.

24/7 analysis by SOC experts

Response time in days

No defined incident response processes

Damage escalates exponentially.

Automated playbooks + human expertise

Tool proliferation

Each team buys its own security tools.

No centralized visibility, gaps emerge.

Centralized SIEM platform with unified visibility

“It’s working anyway”

SOC is set up once, then forgotten.

New threats go undetected.

Continuous optimization and threat hunting

Our tip: Most companies underestimate the effort

An SOC is not a "set-and-forget" system but requires continuous maintenance.

Our 4-Phase Model

Phase 1: Security Assessment

  • Analysis of Your Current Security Posture
  • Identification of Critical Assets and Vulnerabilities
  • Definition of Monitoring Requirements

Phase 2: SOC-Setup & Integration

  • Integration of your systems with our SIEM platform
  • Configuration of specific use cases tailored to your environment
  • Testing of alerting and escalation processes

Phase 3: 24/7-Monitoring & Response

  • Continuous monitoring by certified analysts
  • Immediate response to critical incidents
  • Regular threat hunting activities

Phase 4: Continuous Optimization

  • Monthly reports and KPI dashboards
  • Adjustment of use cases to new threats
  • Compliance reporting for audits

Specific threat scenarios: Here’s how we protect you

icon_laptop_security_white

Scenario 1: Emotet Attack

An employee opens an apparently harmless Excel file. Our SOC detects the abnormal C2 communication of the Trojan within 4 minutes, automatically isolates the infected machine, and prevents further spread.
icon_lock_white

Scenario 2: Insider Threat

A former administrator accesses sensitive data at night. Our behavioral analysis detects the access outside usual hours, blocks the account, and immediately alerts your IT team.
icon_database_security_white

Scenario 3: Ransomware Attack

A ransomware attack begins encrypting data. Our SOC detects the unusual file access, isolates the affected systems, and initiates incident response processes — before critical data is lost.
