What’s the difference between NOC and SOC?
A security operations center (SOC) focuses on security and is responsible for identifying and investigating cyberthreats and responding to and mitigating cyberattacks. A network operations center (NOC) focuses on network operations and is responsible for network monitoring, maintenance and optimization. SOCs and NOCs are complementary in that they ensure optimal network performance while securing network assets and infrastructure.
In today’s cyberthreat environment, managed network operations center (NOC) and security operations center (SOC) services are more robust than either solution on its own. Having NOC tools on servers increases disc-level encryption, and SOC security delivers 360 visibility, early warning, and fast incident isolation and remediation.
