As organizations increasingly migrate their workloads to the cloud, ensuring the security of cloud-native environments has become a top priority for Security Operations Centers (SOCs). In this blog post, we’ll discuss best practices for cloud-native security monitoring in SafeNet SOC, helping organizations protect their assets and data in the cloud.
What is a Security Operations Center (SOC)?
A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a centralized unit within an organization responsible for monitoring, detecting, investigating, and responding to cyber threats. SafeNet SOC provides comprehensive security monitoring services to help organizations protect their digital assets and infrastructure.
