Solving the Cybersecurity Skills Gap with 24/7 Expertise

eSentire applies a six-point methodology to how we develop and retain skilled cybersecurity professionals. This process has been refined over the last decade as we have expanded globally, and has resulted in a distinct competitive advantage given the well-documented global skills shortage.

1

Establish talent pipeline

2

Prevent burnout

3

Drive quality assurance

4

Accelerate SOC efficiency

5

Continuous education and certification

6

Career progression

Establishing a SOC Talent Pipeline

Recruiting top talent for our SOC Cyber Analyst positions begins with the educational relationships we’ve formed in the Waterloo and Cork regions. We are so passionate about doing good work in cyber that we encourage the pursuit of a career in cybersecurity at the elementary, high school, and collegiate levels. Our partnerships with local colleges, universities, municipal boards and not-for-profit organizations help us maintain a robust pipeline for our expanding security operations. We sit on many educational boards of directors and advisory boards so we can help drive value and recommendations on training requirements for their respective information security programs.

How We Reduce Turnover and Prevent SOC Burn Out

8-hour Shifts

While 12 hours are the industry norm, our data and experience indicates that SOC analyst efficiency degrades beyond 8 hours on shift. We rotate 3, 8-hour shifts per day to keep our team fresh and engaged.

Intelligent SOC Shift Staffing

We base our staff presence on investigative data insights making sure to balance skills across our Cyber Analysts, Elite Threat Hunters, Threat Response Unit and other technical experts on a 24/7 basis.

Mentorship Program

After they complete training, new SOC analysts are paired with a senior SOC resource in a pilot/co-pilot model so they learn as productively as possible.

Encouraged PTO

All SOC Cyber Analysts have a minimum of 3 weeks paid time of (PTO) in addition to sick and personal days.

eSentire SOC Quality Assurance Measures

We pride ourselves on ensuring that you receive the very best experience, every time. You can trust that your call will be answered live every time by a trained SOC Cyber Analyst. Plus we perform regular audits of our service and investigations, sharing the results across our team so we can continuously improve the service we deliver.

Accelerating SOC Efficiency

Our Atlas XDR Platform filters out high fidelity threats, recognizing malicious IOCs and IPs that can be automatically disrupted and contained. That way, our SOC Cyber Analysts and Elite Threat Hunters spend their time on higher priority security events. If an orchestrated response isn't possible, Atlas XDR equips our cyber experts with the insights and tools they need to perform deep investigation and execute manual containment, when required, in minutes. Our Security Operations Center teams perform 6000 daily investigations, driving 400 threat containments with a Mean Time to Contain of 15 minutes.

Continuous SOC Education and Certification

Our Security Operations Center onboarding and training process is managed by a dedicated team of learning professionals. We are committed to advancing the certifications and cyber educations of our SOC Cyber Analysts as their careers progress here at eSentire.

Gsg testimonial
The one thing I always tell my superiors when they ask about why we're spending money with eSentire is that the support team is head and shoulders above the rest. Especially the people who proactively reach out, they are some of the smartest, most capable folks we talk to. Normally, you have to escalate to tier three before you get somebody like that. You know, when I get a call at three in the morning, the SOC Analyst has already looked at the case. He knows all the notes on it. He's ready to tell me everything about it. What they're going to do next, and all they need is my authorization or my input. So no, I don't necessarily have any feedback for improvement. What my feedback is, you know, you all are knocking it out of the park in terms of being a partner for us. So we're super happy with eSentire. And I tell my boss this all the time: eSentire is the most responsive and capable partner that we've got."

Every time we call the eSentire SOC, we get a true security analyst on the first touch to walk us through our incidents clearly and efficiently. No other provider delivers such personalized service and expertise. Leveraging the eSentire Atlas platform, in conjunction with access to their sophisticated threat intelligence team, we have been able to cut our incident time to resolution in half."

The nice thing with eSentire is, they’re always looking at my network. They’re looking at my environment. They’re looking at everything that’s coming through. I can sleep at night. I don’t have to have 24/7 SOC. I know that my network is being looked at and they’re taking care of it. And if they see something that they deem to be a threat, they can prevent it, and block it, and stop it, and get a hold of my team, if needed.”

Being able to communicate to the board that our mean time to containment is less than 15 minutes, that’s why we hired eSentire.”

eSentire has always been full of wickedly smart and approachable people. No matter who you look up to as a SOC analyst, that person was where you are now, and they had to learn things the hard way. To me, the SOC has always been a place where someone knows the answer or they're willing to help you find it."
