How Mediafon Technology’s 24/7 SOC strengthened security and reduced the workload of the IT department in a media organization

Illustration

In the face of a growing number of cyber threats, an organization operating in the business media sector faced the challenge of ensuring round-the-clock protection of its IT infrastructure without incurring the costs of building its own security operations center. By implementing the SOC-as-a-Service (SOCaaS) solution from Mediafon Technology, it became possible to achieve continuous monitoring, rapid incident response, and effective vulnerability management, while simultaneously freeing internal resources and increasing overall cyber resilience.

Client

A leading Lithuanian business media and information services company.

Challenges & Needs

The client managed its own IT infrastructure with third-party partners, but faced several growing challenges:

    Increasing volume and sophistication of cyber threats requiring 24/7 monitoring and response.

    Limited internal resources (lack of dedicated security operations personnel.

    Need to comply with internal and regulatory security standards while maintaining reputation and trust.

    Desire to focus on core business activities rather than day-to-day cybersecurity operations.

Solution

The client partnered with Mediafon Technology to implement a Security Operations Center as a Service (SOC aaS).
This solution enabled continuous monitoring of IT infrastructure, vulnerability management, incident response, and user behavior analytics.

  • Continuous log collection and incident monitoring.

  • Rapid response and vulnerability management.

  • Security incident analysis and escalation.

  • Close collaboration between Mediafon Technology’s SOC team and the client’s internal IT department to ensure uninterrupted business operations.

Implementation Process

    Assessment and preparation – Mediafon Technology conducted a detailed security posture assessment to identify weaknesses and requirements.

    Integration – The client’s infrastructure (log management systems, endpoints, firewalls, antivirus, user behavior monitoring) was integrated into the SOC platform.

    Monitoring and support – The SOC service was launched in 24/7 mode, with defined incident response workflows, reporting routines, and communication channels.

    Evaluation and optimization – After the initial phase, results were reviewed (incident reduction, improved response times), and optimizations were applied.

Results and benefits

  • Enhanced security posture – continuous oversight reduced the risk of undetected threats.

  • Optimized internal resources – IT staff could focus on strategic projects rather than constant incident management.

  • Regulatory and reputational compliance – improved client and partner trust due to visible cybersecurity maturity.

  • Cost efficiency – SOC aaS model removed the need to build an in-house SOC, reducing infrastructure and staffing costs.

Key takeaways

    Outsourcing security operations allows organizations to focus on core business while maintaining a high level of protection.

    The SOC aaS model is particularly suitable for medium-sized organizations needing enterprise-grade security without heavy investment.

    Continuous monitoring, proactive threat management, and behavioral analytics help build long-term cybersecurity resilience.
