  Hey all, I run IT at a 40-person software company, and we're debating if it's worth outsourcing to a 24/7 Managed SOC provider. We've had a few phishing incidents, but no major breaches. Is this overkill for a small team?

  Hey! For a 40-person company, outsourcing to a 24/7 Managed SOC can seem like a big step, but it really depends on your risk tolerance and resources. Even smaller teams face sophisticated threats like phishing, so having continuous monitoring helps catch incidents early. We looked into options and found that investing in services like IT System Monitoring gave us peace of mind without the cost of building an in-house SOC. It's not necessarily overkill if you want proactive defense-just balance it with your budget and risk profile.

  Agreed. We couldn't afford to staff 24/7 monitoring, but with a Managed SOC we sleep better at night. Look for one that offers tailored reporting and active threat hunting. It's not just about catching malware-it's peace of mind and faster response when something goes wrong.
