Managed SOC & MDR Services
Mission:
Detect. Respond. Neutralize. Comply.
Around-the-clock MDR with full SOC outsourcing, designed to not just respond to threats but align security operations with regulatory, audit, and compliance obligations.
Service Overview
Your security operations should be more than just alerts—it should be assurance. Athena’s Managed SOC & MDR bridges the gap between detection and meaningful response, while delivering the visibility and evidence needed for regulatory compliance, audit readiness, and risk-based governance.
We offer a fully outsourced Security Operations Center (SOC) built on MDR principles—24/7 threat detection, rapid response, threat hunting, analytics, and compliance support.
Core Capabilities & Service Components
Here’s how we structure and package Managed SOC + MDR services with compliance in mind:
| Capability | Description / Activities | Compliance & Audit Value | Customer Benefits |
| 24/7 Monitoring & Detection | Continuous monitoring of endpoints, cloud, networks, applications, logs, identity systems | Provides foundational evidence of due diligence in regulatory regimes (HIPAA, GDPR, PCI, SOC 2, etc.) | Early detection of attacks—even out of hours |
| Threat Intelligence & Contextual Analysis | Combine internal alerts with external CTI enrichment, anomaly detection, behavior analytics | Supports control objectives around threat awareness and response (e.g. SOC 2 TSC CC7, ISO 27001 A.16) | More precise detection, fewer false positives |
| Incident Triage & Automated Response | AI-driven and playbook-based response (isolation, kill chain interruption, containment) | Enables documented, timely response actions, supporting compliance timelines & obligations | Reduced dwell time, faster mitigation |
| Threat Hunting & Proactive Security | Continuous hunt campaigns, retrospectives, attacker behavior modeling | Helps satisfy regulatory expectations around ongoing detection, evolving threat posture | Surface hidden, stealthy adversaries before they fully strike |
| Forensic Investigation & Root Cause Analysis | Event reconstruction, root cause identification, artifact collection | Critical for post-incident reporting, audit evidence, regulatory disclosures | Understand how and why an event happened, close root vectors |
| Compliance-Driven Reporting & Dashboards | Customized dashboards and reports (executive, technical) with alignment to compliance frameworks | Supports audit evidence, control-level reporting, board/leadership visibility | Metrics that speak to both security and governance |
| SOC Outsourcing / Team Augmentation | We can fully take over SOC operations or act as a seamless augmentation to your internal team | Helps organizations that lack in-house SOC infrastructure or compliance-aligned maturity | Scalable, flexible SOC provision |
| Response Escalation & Remediation Advisory | Guided remediation advice, prioritized fixes, coordination with your internal teams | Helps ensure remediation is defensible, auditable, aligned with compliance obligations | Faster, more structured remediation path |
| Integration & Orchestration | Works with your existing SIEM, EDR, firewalls, cloud providers, IAM systems | Leverages your existing tools while enhancing detection and response coverage | Avoids tool duplication; maximizes ROI |
| Continuous Improvement & Tuning | Feedback loops, alert tuning, control maturity reviews, threat model updates | Ensures your MDR/SOC evolves in line with changing regulatory and threat landscapes |
