FAQs
A managed security service is an outsourced solution where a managed security service provider (MSSP) monitors, manages, and protects an organization’s IT infrastructure. Services often include 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, firewall management, vulnerability assessments, and incident response.
A Managed Service Provider (MSP) focuses on general IT services such as network management, helpdesk support, and system maintenance. In contrast, a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) specializes in managed cybersecurity services, offering advanced protection against cyber threats.
MSS (Managed Security Services) in SOC refers to the outsourcing of security operations center functions to an MSSP. This includes real-time monitoring, threat detection, and incident response.
An MSP provides general IT management and support, while a SOC (Security Operations Center) is a dedicated team or facility focused entirely on cybersecurity. Many organizations partner with managed SOC providers like Cybershield IT to gain enterprise-grade protection without maintaining their own SOC.
