About SOC Root
Democratizing enterprise-grade cybersecurity for businesses across the Middle East and beyond. Built by security practitioners, not marketers.
The Problem We Solve
Most businesses in the UAE and Jordan face the same harsh reality: enterprise-grade cybersecurity is financially out of reach. A traditional SOC engagement costs upwards of $15,000/month — making it exclusive to Fortune 500 companies.
SOC Root was engineered to break this barrier. By combining offensive security expertise, AI-powered triage, and open-source intelligence automation, we deliver the output of a fully staffed security team at a fraction of the cost — without compromising on depth or compliance alignment.

Principles
Why SOC Root?
Automation-First
Every process — from recon to remediation — is engineered as code. No manual steps in the critical path means faster response and zero human error.
Transparent Reporting
No black boxes. Every finding is documented with severity scores (CVSS), reproduction steps, and prioritized remediation actions your team can execute immediately.
Aligned with Local Law
Fully compliant with NCA ECC 2.0, Saudi PDPL, and UAE cybersecurity frameworks — designed specifically for the regulatory landscape of the Gulf and Levant.
Affordable Enterprise Grade
Enterprise-grade SOC operations traditionally cost $15,000+/month. We deliver equivalent capability at 3-5% of that cost using open-source intelligence and automation.
