Arctic Wolf allows companies of all sizes to combat the cybersecurity skills shortage and cost-prohibitive nature of building their own SOC. In fact, a recent cost analysis from Frost & Sullivan revealed that organizations with few, if any, dedicated infosecurity personnel could spend up to nearly 10 times more over a three-year period building and operating their own SOC than if they implemented a SOC-as-a-service, such as Arctic Wolf’s AWN CyberSOC™.
The award-winning, turnkey SOC-as-a-service installs in minutes and provides value from day one, delivering superior threat detection and fewer false positives by leveraging key innovations, including Concierge Security™ teams and hybrid AI, merging the efficiency and scalability of artificial intelligence with the world class experience and intuition of our security engineers.
