Safeguarding your business against cybersecurity risks requires a robust strategy. This involves a holistic approach that combines the efforts of individuals, efficient processes, and advanced technology to detect, contain, and address threats before they lead to lasting harm.
EDR, SIEM, and SOC each provide distinct features crucial for reducing your cybersecurity risk. When integrated, these three tools form a powerful solution that protects your business in the dynamic and complex environment of modern threats.
End-to-End Cybersecurity Safeguards
Effective threat protection involves a multi-layered approach. It starts when EDR detects a potential threat, prompting an alert. SIEM then assesses all alerts, highlighting those that need urgent attention. Following this, SOC analysts examine the critical alerts and take prompt action if required. We will explore each of these tools in greater depth to appreciate why this integrated approach is so effective.
Analytics and Restoration
EDR, or endpoint detection and response, provides enhanced behavior analytics across your entire network. This smart software uses artificial intelligence to spot malware and viruses and stop them in their tracks. EDR can even restore your systems to pre-event status if damage is detected. Traditional anti-virus software doesn’t hold a candle to EDR.
Visibility and Advanced Threat Intelligence
Security information and event management, also known as a SIEM, gathers thousands of security alerts generated from across your network each day and logs the alerts in one central location. A SIEM then cross-correlates the alerts with next-gen technology that can distinguish between the harmless — and the harmful. Threats posing a risk are immediately sent to your security team for remediation.
Expert Analysis and Response
What makes a SOC, or security operations center, different is people. Qualified, experienced SOC analysts work 24/7/365 to review incoming security alerts and take immediate action to isolate and remediate potential threats before they can cause significant damage. SOCs with SOC 2 and ISO certifications also play a crucial role in meeting stringent industry compliance standards.
Triple Threat Protection
EDR, SIEM, and SOC tools each offer essential protection against cybersecurity threats. However, when combined and working in synergy, they create a formidable defense system capable of countering even the most advanced threats. Download the e-book

President / Network Architect
Mark Kolean always had a fascination with technology from the time he was 3 and his gift of the Atari 2600 to current. In 1990 at the age of 14 Mark got his first job in customer support for a mail order business supporting Tandy TSR-80 computer software shipped on cassette tape. A few years later Mark was building hundreds of 286, 386, and 486 computers for the new emerging DOS & Windows 3.1 computers that had exploded on the market.
After a college career studying business and technology Mark Started Shoreline Computer Systems in 1999 at the height of the dot.com boom with the looming crisis of the year2k bug just around the corner. In the early 2000’s a lot of work was done with early network systems including Lantastic, Novell, and Windows NT Server. Mark became a community contributor to the Small Business Specialist community that revolved around Small Business Server 2000-2011 which focused on single or dual server environments for businesses up to 50 in size. Networks during this time frame mostly had a break fix relationship in which work was billed only when a problem occurred.
In the 2010’s Microsoft released their first cloud based software called Microsoft BPOS which would in later become known as Microsoft Office 365. This introduced a new model in technology with pay as you go subscription services. Starting in 2013 Mark’s team at Shoreline Computer System rebranded as Shoreline Technology Solutions to focus on the transition to become proactive and less reactive to data backup and security needs. Starting in 2018 all customers are required to have a backup management plan in place as a center point with the full understanding that if STS isn’t watching the customer’s data, then no one is.
Now in Mark’s 22 years of business he is building a company emphasis of how to help customers retire servers and build networks completely in the cloud.
