Managed SOC Services: 24/7 Cybersecurity Monitoring for UK Businesses

A managed SOC (Security Operations Centre) watches your systems around the clock, spots suspicious activity and helps you act before an attack does real damage, without the cost of building your own security team.

Fortuna Data provides a 24/7 managed SOC service, delivered with our specialist SOC partner. We help you scope it, set it up and get a clear quote.

What is a managed SOC?

A Security Operations Centre (SOC) is a team of security analysts who monitor an organisation's IT systems, investigate suspicious activity and respond to threats. They collect logs and alerts from your network, servers, endpoints and cloud services, so they can see an attack building.

Building your own SOC means hiring analysts for every shift, buying the tools and keeping skills up to date. A managed SOC, also called SOC as a Service, gives you the same round-the-clock monitoring as a service, for a predictable cost.

Threats a managed SOC helps you catch

Phishing and stolen logins

Unusual sign-ins and account activity that suggest a password has been stolen.

Malware and ransomware

Suspicious software and early signs of encryption or data being copied out.

Insider threats

Staff accounts accessing data or systems they normally wouldn't.

Attacks out of hours

Attackers often strike at night or at weekends, when nobody in the office is watching.

What does a managed SOC do?

  • Monitors 24/7: watches logs and alerts from across your IT, day and night
  • Investigates alerts: separates genuine threats from false alarms, so your team isn't buried in noise
  • Responds: tells you what's happening and what to do, and helps contain the threat
  • Reports: shows what was found and how your security is improving over time

Antivirus blocks known threats on each device. A SOC watches activity across all your systems and has people investigating what the tools flag.

No. A managed SOC is designed for businesses that don't have, or don't want to hire, a full-time security team.
