What This Means For You

Round-the-clock protection. Without the price tag of building it yourself.

A real security operations center costs $1.5M+ per year to staff properly. CGCG's SOCaaS gives you that capability on a subscription — with the analysts, tools, and processes already in place.

Most businesses have monitoring tools — but no one watching them. Alerts fire at 2 AM with no one to respond. Logs pile up with no one to review them. Incidents escalate from minor to catastrophic because there was no human in the loop, fast enough, when it mattered. CGCG's SOCaaS puts real analysts behind your security stack, around the clock, every day.

We handle the noise so your team doesn't have to. Out of thousands of alerts generated daily, fewer than 3% are real threats. Our analysts filter and prioritize relentlessly — so when something is escalated to you, it's because it genuinely warrants your attention, and we already know what to do about it.

Real analysts, not just automation.

Tools detect. Humans investigate. Our analysts dig into every credible alert, trace lateral movement, and determine whether a threat is real — before it spreads.

Built for SMBs.

Enterprise-grade SOC capabilities, priced and scoped for businesses without a full security team. You get the coverage; we provide the personnel and platform.

Clear, actionable reporting.

Weekly digests, monthly reports, and real-time incident notifications — all written in plain English for your leadership team, not just your security team.

How It Works

From zero to fully monitored in days — not months.

We onboard fast, baseline your environment carefully, then watch it continuously. Most clients are fully operational within two weeks.

STEP 01

Onboard

We connect to your existing security stack — EDR, firewall, cloud, email, identity — and ingest your log sources into our SIEM. No ripping and replacing. We work with what you have.

STEP 02

Baseline

Before monitoring begins, we learn what "normal" looks like in your environment. That baseline is what makes detection accurate — every anomaly is measured against your specific patterns, not generic rules.

STEP 03

Monitor

24/7/365, our analysts watch your environment in real time. Every log, every alert, every anomaly is reviewed. We tune detection rules continuously to reduce noise and sharpen signal.

STEP 04

Detect & Respond

When a real threat is confirmed, we act immediately — containing compromised endpoints, blocking malicious IPs, revoking access, and escalating to your team with a clear picture of what happened and what we've done.

STEP 05

Report

Weekly digests, monthly executive reports, and full incident documentation. Compliance evidence packs are maintained automatically. Quarterly reviews keep detection rules tuned to an evolving threat landscape.

What We Monitor

Every signal. Every layer. Always watched.

CGCG's SOCaaS covers every source of threat telemetry across your environment — so there are no blind spots for attackers to hide in.

01

SIEM & Log Management

Every log. Collected, correlated, and analyzed.

We ingest logs from your entire environment — endpoints, servers, firewalls, cloud, applications, identity — into our SIEM platform. Our analysts write and tune detection rules so your logs become intelligence, not just archives.

Plain English

SIEM is the brain of the SOC. It collects information from everywhere in your environment and lets analysts see patterns that no single tool could catch on its own.

02

Endpoint Detection & Response

What every device is doing — in real time.

Our analysts monitor EDR telemetry across your entire endpoint fleet. When suspicious behavior is detected — abnormal process execution, lateral movement, credential theft attempts — we investigate immediately and contain before damage spreads.

03

Network Traffic Analysis

What's moving across your network — and where it's going.

We analyze network flow data and DNS logs to detect command-and-control communication, data exfiltration, lateral movement, and unauthorized external connections — including encrypted traffic indicators.

04

Cloud Monitoring

Your cloud environment is not secure by default — and it is watched.

We monitor AWS CloudTrail, Azure Activity Logs, and GCP audit logs for unauthorized access, privilege escalation, misconfiguration changes, and data exposure events in real time across all cloud platforms.

Why it matters

Most cloud breaches happen through misconfiguration or compromised credentials — not sophisticated attacks. We catch both.

05

Identity Threat Detection

Compromised credentials are the #1 attack vector. We watch for them.

We monitor your identity provider — Microsoft Entra, Okta, Google Workspace — for impossible travel, brute-force attempts, MFA bypass, token theft, and privilege escalation. Identity threats are contained before they become breaches.

06

Incident Response & Forensics

When something happens — we already know what to do.

CGCG analysts contain active incidents, preserve forensic evidence, trace the full attack chain, and document everything your leadership, legal counsel, and cyber insurer will need. We don't just detect — we respond.

Included

IR retainer hours are included in your SOCaaS subscription. No surprise billing when you need us most.

We Go Further

SOCaaS at CGCG includes more than monitoring.

Our SOCaaS clients get more than a 24/7 watch team. You get a partner actively improving your defenses, training your team, and preparing you for what regulators and insurers expect.

01

Threat hunting

Reactive monitoring catches known threats. Threat hunting catches what hides beneath detection thresholds. Our analysts proactively search for adversary behaviors that automated tools miss — before an alert ever fires.

02

Custom detection rules

Generic rulesets generate noise. We write detection logic tuned specifically to your environment, your software stack, and your industry's threat profile — so every alert we escalate is one you should care about.

03

Tabletop exercises

We run simulated breach scenarios with your leadership team to test your incident response plan, identify gaps in your communication protocols, and make sure everyone knows their role when something real happens.

04

Compliance evidence packs

SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST — our monitoring automatically generates the audit evidence your compliance frameworks require. When your auditor asks for 12 months of security monitoring logs, we hand you a folder.

We don't just watch your environment. We actively hunt for what hides in it — and we make sure you're prepared for the day something gets through.
Who We Serve

Built for regulated businesses that can't afford a breach.

Our SOCaaS clients are businesses in sectors where the cost of a breach — financial, regulatory, reputational — makes 24/7 detection non-negotiable.

VERTICAL · 01

Finance & Insurance

Highly targeted, heavily regulated, high-value data. CGCG's SOCaaS provides the continuous monitoring and audit evidence that financial sector compliance demands.

VERTICAL · 02

Healthcare

HIPAA breach notifications and ransomware payouts are existential for healthcare practices. We monitor clinical environments with the sensitivity and compliance rigor healthcare requires.

VERTICAL · 03

Legal

Attorney-client privilege and client confidentiality depend on airtight security. We build SOC monitoring for law firms that takes the unique stakes of legal data seriously.

Why Cyber Guardian

A SOC that actually responds.

What separates CGCG's SOCaaS from a monitoring dashboard with a phone number. Four things our clients tell us over and over.

REASON · 01

Real analysts, not just automation.

Our SOC is staffed by humans who investigate, hunt, and respond — not algorithms that alert. Every credible threat gets a human analyst. Every incident gets a human response. Automation supports them; it doesn't replace them.

REASON · 02

Built for SMBs — priced for SMBs.

Enterprise SOCs cost $1.5M+ annually. CGCG's SOCaaS delivers the same capability on a predictable monthly subscription. No per-analyst pricing. No surprise IR billing. One number, full coverage.

REASON · 03

Integrates with your full CGCG stack.

If CGCG already manages your IT or cybersecurity, SOCaaS doesn't create a second team you have to coordinate with. Our SOC, our IT team, and your environment are all under one roof — which means faster response and no gaps between teams.

REASON · 04

Transparent reporting, every time.

You always know what's happening in your environment. Weekly digests, monthly executive summaries, real-time incident notifications, and quarterly reviews. No black boxes. No "trust us, it's fine." Everything in writing.
