Expansion Enhances Access to Global Threat Intelligence, Advanced Analytics and 24X7 Monitoring Services to Support Customers in India and Globally
Symantec Corporation announced the enhanced expansion of its Security Operations Center (SOC) in Chennai, India. Customers in India and across the globe can now expect enriched access to security intelligence insights, and faster detection and response through greater regional coverage and visibility of the threat landscape in this rapidly growing economy.
The Cloud Generation has accelerated the need for organizations to rethink their security requirements as they become increasingly focused on high connectivity and protection to safeguard their most valuable asset – data. The expanded SOC will offer the full suite of Symantec Cyber Security Services (CSS) capabilities, helping customers reduce operational costs while extending the capabilities of their security teams to expedite response to attacks across on-premises and cloud environments – before, during and after an attack.
In addition to being the largest Symantec SOC in Asia Pacific and Japan to support regional customers, this facility will also support customers and other Symantec SOCs across the globe. Powered by our Global Intelligence Network, and more than 100 dedicated, highly trained and qualified cyber security professionals, this SOC is designed to bolster cyber defenses and respond to new threats as they emerge 24X7.
“Symantec continues to heavily invest in our global SOC locations,” said Greg Clark, Symantec CEO. “Our strategic expansion in Chennai and other SOC territories highlights our commitment to providing the most evolved cyber security to customers around the world. Symantec’s SOCs are powered by the world’s largest civilian threat intelligence network, harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), to comb through trillions of telemetry elements. This unique capability provides protection against advanced cyber threats in an increasingly connected world.”
