SOC-as-a-Service: Because it’s not just SIEM
Mar 11 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
SOC-as-a-Service: Because it's not just SIEM
Join us to learn about the key elements of SOC-as-a-Service (monitoring, response, and vulnerability management), calculating buy vs. build TCOs, and intro to our new offering with 24x7x365 unlimited SOC services and NOC consulting.

  • SOC-as-a-Service vs SIEM and SIEM-as-a-Service
  • Resources and tools for calculating spinning up a SOC in-house
  • What to consider when evaluating buy vs. build TCO and ROI
  • Meet our new SOC-as-a-Services and NOC consulting
Security incidents are on the rise, and running a SOC isn’t a part-time job. Even if your organization can afford the top-of-the-line SIEM, SOAR, and vulnerability management tools, chances are your already over-extended sys admin and networking teams simply can’t dedicate the time and energy to managing and monitoring them all.

That’s the story we’ve heard over and over for the past 18 months, and the issue we’ve been striving to solve. With our partner, Arctic Wolf, we’re able to give customers a truly holistic SOC-NOC experience with unlimited security services and network consulting for a flat fee that’s less than ¼ the price of building and managing a SOC in-house.

Aruba CX Switches Core Workshop & Lunch (virtual)

Join Carolina Advanced Digital and Aruba!

Aruba AOS-CX is a platform that can scale from complex multi-tier topologies all the way down to the edge with the same operating system. This is possible with the  Aruba 6300s and 8325s switches.

Switches still create the foundation of modern networks, yet their role has moved beyond purely providing high-performance wired connectivity.

Aruba’s next-gen CX switching portfolio is purpose-built for today’s digital world, satisfying the most demanding use cases from the access layer, to the core, and to the data center. Built on cloud-native principles, our portfolio gives IT the flexibility to deploy a single platform from edge access to the data center that includes intuitive management tools and distributed analytics that transform the IT network operator experience.

Join Carolina Advanced Digital and Aruba for a hands-on virtual CX Core Fundamentals Workshop, and realize the benefits of the CX switch series.
