With eSentire MDR it's how we do it that makes all the difference.
A SOC Analyst receives an XDR-enriched output and cross-references detection and signal properties for event validation. They conduct a comprehensive review of the metadata, including endpoint processes, file downloads, and network traffic summaries related to the event.
Next, they conduct a preliminary investigation, including the reputation check of the involved public IP. They use various tools to establish data points and assess the domains leveraging the IP for hosting purposes.
Evaluate
The SOC Analyst then examines business-specific information (e.g., work-flow handling notations, IP notations, and common knowledge notes) to determine if there are any considerations that could influence how the investigation should be handled.
Investigate
The SOC Analyst will investigate to determine if the detection triggered was rule noise, a malicious attack, a suspicious incident, or initiated by a benign actor. The success of the attack is determined based on:
Inform, Respond & Remediate
The SOC Analyst will determine if the incident requires customer notification, complying with the documented escalation and containment procedures for email and phone call communication. Simultaneously, our SOC team will isolate and contain the threat, and initiate threat response measures, which align with our response processes based on signal type and customer preference.
If the SOC Analyst determines there is a hands-on-keyboard attacker or ransomware attack unfolding, the analyst will engage our Incident Handling Team that is on staff for every shift. They will take command of the incident at that point, and they become the main point of contact for the customer. Our Incident Handling Team will also work cross-functionally with eSentire’s Threat Response Unit to scope the intrusion, identify threat actor activity in the environment and to ensure full remediation.
Continuously Improve
Our SOC team collaboratively enhances your overall security posture over time and becomes an extension of your security team. We leverage insights gained from each investigation in our SOC, providing ongoing improvements in your MDR service to bolster your organization's cyber resilience.

A SOC or Security Operations Center is a facility where a team of security analysts implement various tools and technologies (e.g., SIEM, XDR, Endpoint, Network) to conduct threat investigations and develop threat intelligence to hunt, investigate, and respond to cyber threats in real-time. SOC Cyber Analysts monitor your IT environment (e.g., endpoints, network, log, and cloud) for suspicious activity and are the first to investigate and respond when security threats emerge or when potentially malicious activity is detected.
SOC-as-a-Service or Managed SOC services refer to outsourcing security monitoring, threat detection, and threat response to a dedicated team of security experts. Managed SOC services give organizations access to advanced security monitoring capabilities without requiring them to invest in the security tools, personnel, and operational expenses to run and manage a SOC in-house.
Security leaders often underestimate the cost of building and running an internal SOC. You need to consider the up-front cost and ongoing investment involved as you weigh your options. Most organizations don’t have the resources they need to navigate today’s threat landscape on their own. Try our SOC Calculator to see what it would cost to staff and run your own 24/7 SOC team compared to eSentire MDR here.
A Managed SOC should provide continuous monitoring, advanced threat detection, and immediate expert response to security incidents, ensuring that threats are addressed before they impact your business. Your managed SOC provider should act as an extension of your team, providing peace of mind and hands-on assistance to remediate threats.
The benefits of SOC-as-a-Service/Managed SOC include:
Initial response security is a critical aspect of a Managed SOC service as it ensures immediate threat response and quick containment to prevent business disruption. In a matter of minutes, a well-established SOC team can:
