Security Control Rooms can be defined as a facility that houses an information security team responsible for monitoring and analyzing an organization’s security posture on an on-going basis. The security team’s goal is to detect, analyze, and respond to any and all security incidents or threats, using a combination of technology solutions and a strong set of processes. Control room operators monitor and analyze activity on perimeters, parking lots, entrances, “weak spots” or areas which are easily breached, high-risk areas and more, looking for anomalous activity that could be indicative of a security incident or compromise.
The key benefit of having a security control room is the improvement of security, incident detection through continuous monitoring, analysis of activity and assisted mitigation of further incidents. The 24/7 monitoring provided by security control rooms allow homes, businesses and more an advantage to defend against incidents and intrusions, regardless of source, time of day, or attack type. The gap between attackers’ time to gain entry or commit a crime, and the control rooms time to detection is absolutely crucial. Having a 24 hour security control room helps individuals and organizations close that gap and stay on top of the threats facing their environments.
