Exponential‐e, the British cloud and network provider, has today launched its Cyber Security Operations Centre (CSOC) with a view to making defence in‐depth the default standard for the mid‐market. The company is looking to disrupt the status quo by allowing companies to embed compliance standards within the perimeters of that the CSOC monitors, equipping companies with a real‐time view of their compliance status. In addition, Exponential‐e is calling time on volatile events-per-second and service‐based pricing models, offering an asset‐based pricing model that will allow companies to align the CSOC with their cyber strategy.
