SOC — Security Operations Center
Train and upskill your SOC team with CyberAct
SOC teams are short-staffed, and threats move faster than traditional training can keep up. CyberAct provides real simulation environments (SIEM alerts, incident triage, threat hunting) to train your L1, L2 and L3 analysts without touching your infrastructure. Training and upskilling your SOC team with CyberAct becomes an ongoing process rather than a one-off event, with individual tracking all the way to L3.
The challenges of your role
Junior SOC analysts lack exposure to real incident scenarios
Theoretical training does not prepare analysts for triage under pressure
Assessing each analyst's real skill level is hard without a controlled environment
SOC turnover is high: keeping teams motivated and progressing is a challenge
Certifications (GCIH, GCFA) require intensive practice before the exam

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to train a junior SOC analyst with CyberAct?
It depends on the starting level, but a structured L1 pathway on CyberAct (SIEM labs, triage, escalation) typically takes 20 to 40 hours of practice spread over several weeks, with visible progress tracking from the first exercises.
Do the SOC labs require hardware or access to our real SIEM?
No. Labs run on dedicated VMs, isolated from your production infrastructure. Your analysts handle realistic alerts and logs with zero risk to your systems and no need for access to your real SIEM.
Can SOC scenarios be tailored to our industry (banking, healthcare, manufacturing)?
Yes. Scenarios can be oriented toward the threats typical of your sector (banking fraud, ransomware in healthcare, OT in manufacturing) so analysts train on cases close to what they will actually face.
How does CyberAct help prepare for GCIH or GCFA certifications?
The platform's modules mirror the format and difficulty of these certifications' practical exams: time-constrained log analysis, IOC identification, incident report writing — exactly what is assessed during the exam.
How do we objectively measure an L1 SOC analyst's progress toward L2?
The dashboard aggregates success rate per scenario type, resolution time and practice consistency. A CISO can objectify the move from L1 to L2 on measurable criteria rather than subjective judgment.
Can CyberAct be used for an in-house SOC AND a managed SOC provider?
Yes. The platform fits both models: it upskills an in-house SOC team, but also trains a managed SOC provider's analysts on your specific use cases before they take over your monitoring.
