DGS X-SOC. Beyond the traditional SOC

Resilience and continuous protection with integrated, AI-enabled Security Operations across IT, OT, IoT, Cloud, Identity and AI.

Rafforza la resilienza con un presidio proattivo
 

Strengthen your resilience with continuous Security Operations 

Distributed infrastructures, OT environments, digital identities and non-integrated tools make threats harder to detect. Without complete visibility, cyber risk can impact business continuity, data, compliance, investments and reputation.
 
DGS X-SOC - our eXtended Security Operation Center - helps organizations strengthen their operational resilience through continuous, proactive 24/7 monitoring, delivered across two operational sites in Italy, Milan and Rome.
