SOC Setup (Security Operations Centre)
About This Service
A Security Operations Centre is not a room full of screens - it is a working pipeline: logs flowing in, detection rules firing on real threats, and a human who knows what to do when an alert lands.

SOC Setup and SIEM Deployment for UAE Businesses
A Security Operations Centre is not a room full of screens - it is a working pipeline: logs flowing in, detection rules firing on real threats, and a human who knows what to do when an alert lands. I design and deploy exactly that for UAE businesses, built on Wazuh for open-source deployments or Microsoft Sentinel for organizations already on Microsoft 365 and Azure.
The build covers the full chain: log collection agents on your servers and endpoints, ingestion from cloud platforms and firewalls, detection rules tuned to your environment rather than vendor defaults, and alert thresholds adjusted over a tuning period so your team is not drowned in noise. You also get runbooks and escalation paths - written, step-by-step instructions for the ten most likely alert types - plus dashboards that show security posture at a glance for both engineers and management.
These are lightweight SOC designs sized for SMEs in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the northern emirates - a monitored Wazuh stack on a single VPS or a focused Sentinel workspace - not enterprise architectures with enterprise price tags. Free-zone tech companies and mainland trading firms get real 24/7 visibility for a setup cost in the thousands of dirhams, not millions.
What's included
- SIEM deployment - Wazuh or Microsoft Sentinel installed, configured, and secured for your environment.
- Full log pipeline - Agents and connectors for servers, endpoints, firewalls, and cloud platforms feeding one console.
- Custom detection rules - Rules built for your actual threats - brute force, malware, privilege abuse - not just vendor defaults.
- Alert tuning period - Thresholds adjusted against live traffic so alerts mean something when they fire.
- Runbooks & escalation paths - Step-by-step response instructions for the most likely alert types, with clear ownership.
- Dashboards for two audiences - Operational views for engineers and a posture summary for management.
