SOCaaS
SOC as a service, explained and priced
SOC as a Service (SOCaaS) gives your business a complete security operations centre on a monthly subscription: 24/7 UK analysts, detection tooling, investigation and response, consumed as a service instead of built as a department.
The subscription
Security operations as a service
Owning a SOC means owning a rota, a toolchain and a management problem. Subscribing to one means starting within days and paying a predictable monthly fee.
A whole SOC on subscription
Analysts, tooling, detection content and management, consumed as one monthly service. No capital project, no recruitment, no eighteen month build before anyone is watching.
Scales with your estate
Add endpoints, cloud tenants and log sources as you grow; the subscription flexes with you. You pay for the coverage you use, not for idle analyst capacity.
Visibility you can inspect
A live view of what the SOC sees and does: alerts triaged, incidents raised, response actions taken. A service you can audit, not a black box you have to trust.
One predictable monthly fee
The subscription is the whole cost, published in full. No surprise professional-services invoices when something actually happens.
The full service specification, from SIEM management to threat hunting, is on what's included.

See the three pricing tiersThe labels, honestly
SOC as a Service, managed SOC and MDR mostly describe the same capability from different angles: the subscription, the operation and the outcome. The genuine question is coverage: which of your systems are watched, who responds and how fast. That is what the discovery call establishes, whatever the service ends up being called.
Quick answers
SOC as a Service FAQs
What is SOC as a Service?
SOC as a Service (SOCaaS) gives your business a complete security operations centre on a monthly subscription: expert analysts monitoring your systems 24/7, investigating suspicious activity and responding to genuine threats, with the tooling and management included in the fee.
How much does SOC as a Service cost in the UK?
Our SOC as a Service tiers run at REPLACE_WITH_PRICE_RANGE per month, scoped by endpoints, data sources and coverage, with the per-endpoint maths published in full. Most UK providers only price by quote; we publish ours so you can budget before you ever speak to us.
Why choose SOC as a Service over building a SOC?
Building an in-house SOC means recruiting a 24/7 analyst rota, buying and tuning a SIEM and running both indefinitely, which puts it out of reach for most mid-sized businesses. SOC as a Service delivers the same capability from the first month, at a fraction of the cost, and you can leave if it underperforms.
Is SOC as a Service the same as MDR?
In substance, yes. SOC as a Service emphasises the subscription: a security operations centre consumed as a monthly service. MDR emphasises the outcome: threats detected and responded to for you. We deliver the same 24/7 capability under either name.
