The digital threat landscape is constantly evolving. With AI-driven cyber threats, geopolitical instability, and increasingly stringent regulatory requirements such as NIS2, DORA, and GDPR, implementing adequate security measures is challenging for most organizations. Every company has business-critical data and confidential information that must be protected around the clock.

In addition, most cyberattacks happen after people have gone home for the day. According to HIPAA Journal, 56 percent of attacks occur on holidays or weekends. Other security companies report that more than 60 percent of security incidents occur outside normal business hours.

To detect and respond to security incidents, an effective solution is to establish a 24/7 SOC (Security Operations Center).

A SOC functions as a digital security operations center that continuously monitors, logs, and reports IT security incidents. For most companies, however, building and staffing their own Security Operations Center is neither cost-effective nor realistic. The solution is a Managed SOC, a ready-to-use, 24/7 security service delivered by specialists such as Sicra.

What does Sicra SOC do for your organization?

Sicra SOC MDR (Managed Detection and Response) is built on Arctic Wolf’s world-leading cybersecurity platform. The service integrates seamlessly with your organization’s existing infrastructure and provides:

24/7 monitoring and logging: Monitoring, continuous collection, and analysis of logs from across the IT environment, whether in cloud platforms, on-premises environments, or hybrid environments.

A combination of technology and expertise: The platform combines advanced threat intelligence and artificial intelligence with dedicated security experts who verify genuine security incidents.

Proactive risk management: We continuously work on preventive security measures, including improving endpoint security, access management, and securing authentication solutions such as Microsoft Entra ID.

A vast data foundation: Arctic Wolf’s platform analyzes data from more than 7 million agents and sensors globally. More than 1 trillion events are analyzed every day. This provides a unique data foundation and the experience needed to distinguish genuine threats from false positives.

End-to-end incident response: When a threat is detected, Sicra handles the entire incident in collaboration with Arctic Wolf, including analysis, risk assessment, remediation, and reporting.

Log everything at no additional cost

A common challenge with security services is that costs can quickly increase as data volumes grow. Sicra SOC MDR based on Arctic Wolf works differently:

• Unlimited log data: Whether gigabytes or terabytes, there are no additional costs based on log volume. This is important because it helps eliminate blind spots.
• Integrations with more than 3,500 systems: Active Directory, Office 365/Entra ID, EDR/NDR/XDR, AWS, GCP, Okta, Cisco Duo, and firewall solutions are included at no additional cost.
• Norwegian contracting partner: You only deal with Sicra. We handle all contracts with Arctic Wolf. Our standard contract is SSA-lille sky.

What are the benefits of Sicra Managed SOC?

Organizations that implement Sicra SOC MDR achieve tangible improvements in three areas:

Reduced risk

Threats are detected and handled faster than internal IT departments can typically manage on their own. Attackers have access to a network for an average of more than 200 days before being detected. Continuous monitoring dramatically reduces this time.

Compliance with laws and regulations

The NIS2 Directive and the NSM Basic Principles for ICT Security require organizations to be able to document security monitoring and incident response. Sicra SOC provides the logging, reporting, and traceability needed to meet these requirements.

More capacity for your internal team

Your IT team can focus on business development instead of firefighting. Sicra’s dedicated security team, which includes several security-cleared consultants, acts as an extension of your IT department rather than a replacement for it.

Proactive follow-up

Sicra SOC differs from many providers by placing as much emphasis on prevention as on response. Through regular status meetings, Sicra’s team follows up on alert tuning, security preparedness measures, and threat detection to identify vulnerabilities before attackers do.

In summary: What are the benefits of Sicra Managed SOC?

• 24/7 monitoring of networks, endpoints, and cloud environments
• Built on Arctic Wolf’s global SOC platform, which collects data from more than 7 million sensors and endpoint agents worldwide
• Norwegian contracting partner with local presence and coordination with authorities
• Unlimited log data at no additional cost
• Integrations with more than 3,500 systems
• Dedicated security team with security-cleared consultants
• Continuous improvement of your organization’s security
