Key Capabilities / Features

Viettel IDC annually surveys to understand customer needs and identify common pain points related to information security and data protection.
1. A lack of knowledge and experience in detecting and handling security threats leads to missed potential threats and uncertainty in responding to security incidents.
2. The significant resource investment required to build and maintain an in-house Security Operations Center (SOC), including personnel, hardware, software, and infrastructure.
3. The high cost associated with building and maintaining an in-house SOC, including infrastructure development, deployment, maintenance, purchasing security tools and software, training staff, and paying salaries for the SOC team.
4. Difficulty in maintaining and updating technology in the rapidly evolving security field.
5. Challenges in continuously monitoring security 24/7, creating opportunities for attackers due to gaps in detecting and responding to security incidents.
