a new model for security operations

real security expertise.
for everyone who needs it.

Small businesses, local governments, schools, and clinics face the same threats as the largest enterprises — but without the budgets, the staff, or the tools to defend themselves. CrowdSOC was built to close that gap. Not by replacing what you have, but by making it work for you.

the problem we're solving

the threat doesn't care
about your budget

Adversaries don't distinguish between a Fortune 500 company and a county school district. But the security resources available to defend them are worlds apart. The result is thousands of organizations left genuinely exposed — not from negligence, but because the system was never built to serve them.

Enterprise security tools cost enterprise money. Experienced security analysts command enterprise salaries. And the talent shortage means there simply aren't enough people to go around — even if organizations could afford them.

This isn't a gap that more awareness training or better password policies will close. It requires a structural change in how security operations are delivered — and that's exactly what CrowdSOC is building.

the crowdsoc approach

novel methods.
proven results.

We looked at how other industries solved the problem of delivering expert analysis at scale — and applied those principles to security operations. CrowdSOC processes your security events and returns findings you can actually act on, working alongside your existing tools without replacing them.

01 connect
your tools, your data

CrowdSOC integrates alongside your existing security stack — firewalls, endpoint agents, log sources. We work with what you have. No expensive replacements, no six-month implementations.

02 analyze
expert eyes on your events

Your security telemetry is processed through our platform, applying vetted analyst expertise and threat intelligence context. Collective intelligence — a model proven to work at scale in other high-stakes domains — applied to security operations.

03 act
actionable intelligence back to you

You receive clear, prioritized findings — not a raw alert feed. Each item explains what happened, what it means for your organization, and specifically what to do about it. Real information, not more noise.

what this looks like in practice
without crowdsoc
"Alert: Suspicious network connection detected on 192.168.1.45 at 03:22 UTC. Severity: medium."
with crowdsoc
"A device on your accounting network made an outbound connection to a known command-and-control domain. This is consistent with early-stage malware. Immediate action: isolate the device at switch port 14, run AV scan, and review emails received by this user in the last 48 hours."
who crowdsoc is for

built for the organizations
that have been left behind

CrowdSOC is designed specifically for organizations that need real security coverage but haven't had a realistic path to get it. Enterprise clients are welcome too — but this was built for everyone else first.

small & medium business

Targeted constantly, protected minimally, and operating without dedicated security staff. SMBs need security operations that fit their reality — not watered-down enterprise tools at enterprise prices.

local & county government

Critical infrastructure, citizen data, and essential services — managed by IT teams wearing a dozen hats. Security operations that don't require a dedicated analyst to interpret.

education institutions

K-12 districts and universities hold sensitive student records and face persistent ransomware targeting. Real security coverage at funding levels that reflect the reality of public education.

healthcare & clinics

Community health centers and smaller practices face HIPAA obligations and ransomware pressure without the security infrastructure of hospital systems. Patient data deserves real protection.

nonprofits & social sector

Donor data, vulnerable populations, operational dependencies — and security budgets that are almost never a priority. Mission-driven organizations deserve mission-aligned protection.

enterprise & mid-market

Larger organizations benefit too — augmenting existing SOC teams, filling coverage gaps, and applying additional analyst capacity during peak periods or high-tempo investigations.
