Managed Security Services Provider — 24×7 SOC for Indian Businesses
Most Indian businesses can't afford a 24×7 in-house security team. NxgSecure gives you enterprise-grade threat detection, MDR, and incident response — managed by a named security expert, at a fraction of the cost.

The Problem
Why most Indian businesses have a security gap they can't see
Cyberattacks on Indian businesses increased 300% in the last three years. The problem is not that Indian businesses don't care about security — it's that full-time 24×7 protection is out of reach for most of them.
In-house SOC costs ₹3–5 crore/year
To run a proper 24×7 SOC you need 4–5 security analysts (₹15–25 LPA each), a SOC manager, SIEM licensing, and threat intelligence feeds. That's ₹3–5 crore before a single alert is investigated.
Attackers operate at 3am
Ransomware groups deliberately trigger attacks outside business hours when no one is watching. A 9-to-5 security team is not a security team — it's a business hours helpdesk.
Security tools without analysts
Antivirus, firewalls, and endpoint protection generate thousands of alerts. Without trained analysts to triage them, the real threats are buried in noise and go undetected for weeks.
Compliance ≠ security
ISO 27001 and DPDP Act compliance proves you have policies in place — not that someone is watching your environment right now. Compliance audits look backwards; threats happen in real time.
Indian fintech and healthtech are prime targets
Payment data, health records, and Aadhaar-linked systems are the highest-value targets for attackers. Indian fintechs and healthtech companies are disproportionately attacked relative to their security investment.
No incident response plan
Most Indian businesses discover they have no incident response capability when an incident actually happens — when it's too late to prepare, and the cost of every minute counts.
What We Do
Everything a managed security service provider delivers — in one programme
NxgSecure's managed security services combine a 24×7 SOC, threat detection, active response, and compliance monitoring into a single managed programme with a named expert accountable for your security posture.
Core Service
24×7 Security Operations Centre (SOC)
Continuous monitoring of your networks, endpoints, cloud environments, and applications. Every alert is reviewed by a human analyst — not just an automated rule engine.
- Real-time log collection and correlation
- SIEM management and tuning
- Alert triage and investigation
- Monthly threat reports
Advanced Detection
Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
We don't just detect threats — we contain them. MDR goes beyond alerting: when a threat is confirmed, our team acts to isolate affected systems before lateral movement occurs.
- Endpoint detection and response (EDR)
- Network traffic analysis
- Behavioural threat detection
- Active threat containment
Proactive Security
Threat Hunting
Advanced attackers evade automated detection. Threat hunting is the proactive search for adversaries who are already inside your environment — before they complete their attack.
- Hypothesis-driven threat hunting
- IoC and TTP analysis
- Lateral movement detection
- Privilege escalation hunting
Vulnerability Management
VAPT and Vulnerability Management
Regular vulnerability assessments and penetration tests across your external attack surface, internal network, web applications, and API endpoints — with remediation guidance that actually gets closed.
- External attack surface assessment
- Web application penetration testing
- API security testing
- Remediation tracking
When It Goes Wrong
Incident Response
When a breach or ransomware incident occurs, response speed determines the outcome. NxgSecure provides documented IR plans, pre-agreed escalation paths, and hands-on incident response for active events.
- IR plan development and testing
- 24×7 incident response hotline
- Forensic investigation
- DPDP Act breach notification support
Always-On Compliance
Security Compliance Monitoring
Security and compliance are not separate programmes. NxgSecure maps every security control to your applicable frameworks — DPDP Act, ISO 27001, RBI guidelines — so security events automatically generate compliance evidence.
- Continuous control monitoring
- Automated evidence collection
- Compliance posture dashboards
- Pre-audit readiness assessments
MSSP vs In-House
Managed security services vs building an in-house SOC
In-house SOC
- ₹3–5 crore/year in analyst salaries before any tooling
- 6–12 months to hire, train, and reach operational maturity
- Coverage gaps during nights, weekends, and Indian holidays
- High attrition — Indian security professionals change jobs every 18–24 months
- SIEM licensing, threat intel feeds, EDR — additional ₹50–80 lakh/year
- No coverage during the team lead's notice period
- Institutional knowledge walks out the door with every resignation
NxgSecure Managed Security Services
- Fraction of in-house cost — enterprise security without enterprise headcount
- Operational from week 1 — no hiring, no training delay
- True 24×7×365 coverage including Indian holidays
- No attrition risk — NxgSecure absorbs staff changes; your security continues
- All tooling included — SIEM, EDR, threat intel, vulnerability scanners
- Named accountable expert stays consistent; escalation path always clear
- Institutional knowledge stays in NxgSecure's documented playbooks
How We Work
From assessment to 24×7 monitoring in four stages
NxgSecure's onboarding is designed for speed. We deploy monitoring in weeks, not months — because every day without 24×7 coverage is a day attackers can operate undetected.
Week 1–2
Security Baseline Assessment
We map your current environment — cloud, on-premises, endpoints — identify your critical assets, assess existing controls, and define the threat model specific to your sector and data types.
Week 3–4
SIEM and Sensor Deployment
Log sources are connected, SIEM rules are configured for your environment, and EDR agents are deployed. Detection coverage is verified before handoff to 24×7 monitoring.
Week 5–6
Tuning and Playbook Development
Alert rules are tuned to your environment to eliminate false positives. IR playbooks are documented for your specific risk scenarios — ransomware, data exfiltration, account compromise.
Ongoing
24×7 Monitoring and Monthly Reviews
Full SOC coverage begins. Monthly threat reports cover what was detected, what was investigated, and how your threat landscape is evolving. Quarterly reviews with your named expert assess posture improvements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Managed security services questions we answer every week
A Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) is a company that delivers outsourced monitoring and management of security systems on behalf of its clients. An MSSP operates a 24×7 Security Operations Centre (SOC) that monitors your organisation's networks, endpoints, cloud environments, and applications for threats — and responds to incidents. Unlike a traditional IT managed service provider, an MSSP focuses exclusively on cybersecurity.
A Managed Service Provider (MSP) manages general IT infrastructure — servers, networks, desktops, and helpdesk. A Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) focuses exclusively on cybersecurity — threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, and security compliance. Some MSPs offer basic security as an add-on, but an MSSP runs a dedicated Security Operations Centre with certified security analysts and specialised threat intelligence.
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) goes beyond traditional monitoring. While a basic SOC alerts you to threats, MDR means the security team actively investigates and contains threats on your behalf. When a threat is confirmed, our analysts act — isolating affected systems, removing malicious files, and blocking lateral movement — before you have even been informed. MDR is the difference between being told there is a fire and having someone fight it.
Indian businesses face a unique combination: severe shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals (India has one of the largest global skill gaps); increasing regulatory requirements under the DPDP Act 2023 and RBI guidelines; rapidly increasing cyberattacks targeting Indian fintech, healthtech, and manufacturing; the high cost of building an in-house 24×7 SOC (₹3–5 crore/year in salaries alone); and enterprise client requirements for proof of continuous security monitoring. Managed security services address all of these simultaneously.
Managed security services in India range from ₹15–60 lakhs per year depending on scope, number of endpoints, log volume, and compliance requirements. This compares to ₹3–5 crore per year to build an equivalent in-house SOC. NxgSecure scopes pricing based on your specific environment — we start with a free security assessment to understand your requirements before any commercial discussion.
Yes — and this is a key advantage of NxgSecure's managed security service. Every security monitoring activity generates compliance evidence automatically. Our SOC maps to ISO 27001 controls (particularly Annex A controls for incident management, logging, and monitoring), DPDP Act security safeguard requirements, and RBI cybersecurity framework obligations. This means your security investment delivers compliance evidence simultaneously — eliminating the duplication between separate security and compliance programmes.
