Introduction
Cyber threats are everywhere ransomware, phishing, insider attacks, and more. To defend against them, companies invest in a Security Operations Center (SOC). But the real question is: How do you know if your SOC is performing well, and how does it contribute to business value?
That’s where SOC KPIs come in. Numbers on their own don’t say much unless they translate into business impact.
In this blog, we’ll break down how SOC KPIs connect to business goals — and how DeepAegis helps convert security metrics into real business growth.
What Are SOC KPIs?
SOC KPIs are measurable values that track the performance of your security operations. Common examples include:
- Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) – How quickly threats are discovered
- Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) – How fast incidents are handled
- Incident volume – How many threats your SOC processes
- False positive rate – How many alerts were incorrect
- System uptime – How stable your environment remains
These metrics are powerful — but only if used the right way.
The Business Side of SOC KPIs
Business leaders talk in terms of profit, efficiency, risk, and growth. Here’s how SOC KPIs map to those areas.
I. Lower MTTD & MTTR = Faster Decisions + Reduced Risk
When your SOC detects and responds quickly, the business avoids major damage.
A strong MTTR helps prevent downtime, protects revenue, and maintains customer trust.
DeepAegis uses AI-driven detection to cut MTTD and MTTR — stopping threats before they escalate.
II. Fewer False Positives = Higher Productivity
False alarms waste time.
If your team chases the wrong alerts, real threats might slip through.
DeepAegis reduces false positives with an advanced alerting engine, keeping teams efficient and focused.
III. Incident Volume = Clear ROI
A high incident count isn’t negative — it shows your SOC is actively catching threats.
The real value comes from handling them effectively.
DeepAegis provides detailed incident reports that prove your cybersecurity investment is working.
IV. System Uptime = Business Continuity
High uptime supports customer experience, operational stability, and brand trust.
With 24/7 monitoring and rapid response, DeepAegis helps ensure smooth business operations.
