Cyber Security Threat Detection

Nexsus Cyber Solution  SOC as a service includes Cyber Security Threat Detection. Any cyber security strategy is incomplete without an array of tactics to detect threats. An effective cyber security threat detection system should proactively identify all suspicious activities, whether external or internal.

Many kinds of cyber security threats are caused or facilitated by internal errors, unintended human mistakes, and general unawareness.
