Managed SOC-as-a-Service vs Building an In-House SOC

29 Aug 2026 JBX Editorial Security 5 min read

The High Cost of Building an In-House SOC

Building a 24x7 in-house Security Operations Center requires significant capital investment: purchasing SIEM/SOAR software licenses, acquiring threat intelligence feeds, and hiring a minimum of 8 to 12 tier-1 to tier-3 security analysts for shift coverage.

Benefits of SLA-Backed SOC-as-a-Service

SOC-as-a-Service provides instant access to enterprise-grade SIEM tooling, continuous threat hunting, sub-15-minute SLA incident escalation, and seasoned cybersecurity engineers at a fraction of the cost of building in-house.
