Bluedog Outsourced SOC is a dedicated, remotely staffed Security Operations Center (SOC) and Network Operations Center (NOC) service. Bluedog recruits, builds, trains, and manages a dedicated team of security professionals on behalf of the client, with the team operating exclusively for that client. Clients determine the composition of their SOC team, which can include SOC Engineers, SOC Managers, Network Engineers, Security Engineers, Tech Support Engineers, Analysts, Microsoft Certified Staff, AWS Certified Staff, and other technical roles as needed. The service operates on the client's chosen schedule (24x7, 12x7, 12x5, or 9x5) and uses the client's own monitoring or SIEM software licences. Bluedog handles all administrative overhead including HR, government regulations, staff training, and staff welfare. The service is billed as a single predictable monthly payment. Clients retain control over team makeup, operational hours, platforms used, and processes followed. A Security Architect is available to advise on team sizing and security tooling if required. Key advantages cited include: access to specialized security expertise, cost savings compared to building an in-house SOC, scalability to match organizational growth, continuous monitoring capabilities, assistance with compliance requirements, and access to advanced security technologies.
