Building a security operations center (SOC)

"Whether you’re protecting a bank or the local grocery store, certain common sense security rules apply. At the very least, you need locks on entrances and exits, cash registers, and vaults as well as cameras pointed at these places and others throughout the facility.  The same goes for your cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments. Controlling access with tools like passwords, ACLs, firewall rules and others aren’t quite good enough. You must be able to constantly monitor your critical infrastructure so that you can spot anomalous activity that may indicate a possible exposure."
