Describe a security operation center (SOC).

What will be an ideal response?

A security operations center (SOC) provides the operational infrastructure to detect attacks and prevent damage to the organization. It is staffed with talented information security professionals, has mature processes and procedures for repeatable investigations, and has a SIEM technology to bring all the intelligence to the team's fingertips. Most complex organizations have a SOC that serves as a command center for information security activities.
