The Challenge

The math doesn't work for building your own SOC.

24/7 security monitoring requires a minimum of 8-12 analysts across three shifts, with average salaries of $85,000-$130,000 each. Add a SIEM license, a SOAR platform, threat intelligence feeds, a ticketing system, and the engineering hours to integrate and maintain them all. Year one cost: $1-3 million. Annual operating cost: $1.5-2.5 million.

And even after that investment, you still face the cybersecurity skills gap. SOC analyst turnover runs 15-25% per year. Every departure triggers a 3-6 month cycle of recruiting, hiring, and training. For most organizations, the question is not whether they need a SOC it is whether building one is the best use of $2 million per year.

What's Included

What you get with Helxon SOC as a Service.

This is not alert forwarding. Helxon SOCaaS provides the complete security operations lifecycle from detection through investigation through containment through documentation operated by experienced analysts on the VORXOC platform.

24/7 Threat Monitoring

Helxon analysts watch your environment around the clock nights, weekends, holidays. Every alert is triaged by a human, not just forwarded by automation. When something needs attention, you hear from an analyst who has already gathered context.

AI-Powered Detection

VORXOC applies AI-powered cross-source correlation across endpoint, network, cloud, identity, and email. Alert fatigue drops by 80% because noise is filtered before it reaches any analyst.

Incident Investigation

When a genuine threat is identified, our Tier 2-3 analysts investigate. They trace the full attack chain, gather forensic evidence, determine scope and impact, and present a complete investigation with recommended actions not a work-in-progress ticket.

Automated & Analyst-Led Response

For well-understood patterns, automated containment playbooks isolate hosts and block indicators within minutes. For complex incidents, analysts coordinate response through VORXOC's native integrations.

Proactive Threat Hunting

Our threat hunters search your telemetry for threats automated detection missed, using hypothesis-driven frameworks mapped to MITRE ATT&CK. Also available as standalone Threat Hunting as a Service.

Compliance-Ready Reporting

VORXOC generates audit evidence from operational data: monitoring proof, incident timelines, response metrics, and detection coverage. Mapped to HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR controls.

Integrated Threat Intelligence

Every alert is enriched with threat intelligence during ingestion. Our analysts leverage curated feeds to prioritize real threats and deprioritize noise intelligence operationalized into detection rules and investigation context.

Guided Onboarding & Continuous Tuning

Onboarding includes environment assessment, integration configuration, baseline tuning, and validation. Our team continuously refines detection rules and alert thresholds based on your evolving environment and new threat intelligence.

Transparency

Full transparency: you see everything our analysts see.

The most common concern about outsourced security is losing visibility. Helxon is different you get direct access to the same VORXOC platform our analysts use. Same console. Same incident timelines. Same evidence. Same detection rules. Every analyst note, triage decision, and containment action is visible in real time.
