AWARDS & CERTIFICATIONS
What's Included in Managed Security Operations Center (SOC)
Proactive monitoring and comprehensive protection
Continuous monitoring is the foundation of effective cybersecurity. Charter Technology Solutions provides 24/7 oversight of your network, endpoints, and cloud systems to identify suspicious activity as it happens. Skilled analysts review alerts, investigate anomalies, and escalate genuine threats, reducing the time between detection and action. Clients benefit from minimized risk of extended exposure and the confidence that no alert is left unchecked, day or night.
Incident response is critical for limiting damage when a threat is detected. The team coordinates immediate investigation, containment, and remediation steps, following documented best practices. You receive clear communication throughout the process and detailed post-incident reports. This approach reduces downtime, supports compliance efforts, and gives your team actionable recommendations to prevent future issues, ensuring you’re never left handling a breach alone.
Charter Technology Solutions builds and maintains a custom risk register for each client, updated quarterly to reflect your evolving environment. This dynamic register provides a clear overview of current risks, prioritized action items, and progress tracking. Combined with annual policy reviews and updates, this service ensures your security strategy adapts to new threats, supports insurance requirements, and aligns with the latest industry frameworks.
Insurance and audit readiness are increasingly important for organizations of all sizes. Charter Technology Solutions develops, implements, and documents 20-25 cybersecurity policies per client, mapped to NIST CSF standards. This helps you meet insurance questionnaires, pass audits, and demonstrate a proactive risk management posture, often reducing premiums and supporting stakeholder confidence in your security program.
User-level protection tackles the most common entry point for modern threats: your people. Charter Technology Solutions provides phishing simulations, targeted security training, and robust email filters to reduce preventable risks. These services empower staff and students to recognize and avoid threats, shrinking the attack surface and strengthening your organization’s human firewall.
Secure, automated data backup for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace ensures your critical files, emails, and collaboration data are safe from ransomware, accidental deletion, or hardware failure. With Charter Technology Solutions managing backup schedules, retention, and restoration processes, you gain peace of mind knowing your data remains accessible and recoverable no matter what happens.
