Introduction to SOC Attacker Centric¶
SOC Attacker Centric service (Security Operation Center Attacker Centric) was developed to be delivered for national and international organizations that require stringent security requirements to be fulfilled. The level of structural complexity of such organizations requires that the organization of a SOC is taken care of down to the smallest detail, especially in terms of processes and procedures governing the service.
The SOC Attacker Centric service developed by Würth IT Italy offers proactive approach to security monitoring that goes beyond the capabilities of a traditional SOC. While both types of SOCs analyze logs and events using Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) and rely on SIEM-based detection rules, the SOC Attacker Centric introduces several enhancements that significantly strengthen threat detection and business resilience.
Compared to traditional SOC, the SOC Attacker Centric is able to cover the first phase of the attack, that of reconnaissance. This has been achieved through the development and integration of the SATAYO® OSINT & Cyber Threat Intelligence platform. It also uses Indicators of Pre-Compromise (IoPC) to detect potential threats before they turn into incidents.
The service integrates both Blue Team and Red Team perspectives, providing a comprehensive view of defense and offense in cybersecurity. Through the use of exclusive detection rules (SOC Prime) and SATAYO IoCs — a vast database of over 900,000 indicators updated daily — Würth IT Italy ensures its threat intelligence is both rich and constantly evolving.
Moreover, SOC Attacker Centric leverages the NetEye monitoring platform to actively retrieve information from monitored hosts, enabling its Blue Team to perform deeper, real-time analysis rather than relying solely on SIEM inputs.
In addition, the SOC performs continuous vulnerability assessments with direct business correlation, linking technical risks to business processes through NetEye Business Service Monitoring. This approach helps prioritize what truly matters to your organization’s operations and continuity.
This way, SOC Attacker Centric stands out by means of:
Proactive detection with Indicators of Pre-Compromise (IoPC)
Continuous vulnerability assessment with business impact correlation
Combined Blue and Red Team methodologies
Exclusive and frequently updated detection intelligence (SOC Prime, SATAYO)
Direct host-level data analysis via NetEye integration
The SOC Attacker Centric solution aims to continuously monitor reconnaissance elements exploitable by attackers and the totality of input elements sent to the SIEM platform. The service is managed 24/7, delivered from Italy, and enables detection of threats and prompt response in order to protect the client’s technological infrastructure, information and consequently business. It includes the following features:
Satellites/Agents: installed at the customer’s infrastructure, are aimed at collecting as input the logs, events and flows generated by the hosts, applications and systems identified within the organization’s Monitoring Perimeter, then sending them to the SIEM platform.
SIEM Platform (Security Information Event Management): aims to enable the carrying out of correlation activities of input elements transmitted by satellites. It efficiently detects security anomalies through developed detection rules, enabling Cyber Security Analysts operating within the SOC Attacker Centric to respond and suggest mitigation and remediation measures that can prevent cyber security incidents.
OSINT and CTI Platform (Open Source INTelligence & Cyber Threat Intelligence): aims to continuously monitor the attack surface through the automated execution of mostly passive reconnaissance tasks. It allows the simulation of the attacker’s point of view on the company.
