SOC Staffing a Major Problem for Many Organizations
Although SOCs keep pace with evolving cyber threats, SOC staffing remains a major problem for many global organizations.
Approximately 35 percent of IT professionals said they want more funding for SOC staffing and 33 percent stated their SOC is understaffed, according to the "2019 State of the SOC Report" from security information and event management (SIEM) solutions provider Exabeam. Furthermore, hard skills like threat hunting and data loss prevention also are becoming increasingly important in SOCs.
