Properly implementing a Security Operations Center (SOC) within an organization has the advantage of facilitating continuous monitoring and analysis of the organization's activities, leading to enhanced security incident detection. The SOC acts as a central hub for monitoring, detecting, and responding to security threats in real-time, which is crucial for maintaining the security of an organization's systems and data. This continuous vigilance helps in early detection and rapid response to incidents, thereby reducing potential damage. References include NIST SP 800-61, which provides guidelines for establishing and maintaining effective incident response capabilities, including the role of a SOC.
