Vulnerability Operations Center (VOC)

The Vulnerability Operations Center (VOC) is a tool dedicated to the detection, management and remediation of security vulnerabilities.

Its role is fundamentally focused on offensive security: actively identifying and resolving vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by malicious actors.

Missions of a VOC analyst

  • Continuous monitoring: VOC analysts continuously monitor systems for vulnerabilities, using threat intelligence and alerts to ensure rapid reaction to potential flaws.

  • Vulnerability assessment and classification: Identified vulnerabilities are analyzed to assess their criticality, based on impact, accessibility and data sensitivity, in order to prioritize corrective actions according to risk.

  • Corrective action planning: Analysts collaborate with technical teams to develop and implement remediation plans, including patches, security configurations and policy optimization.

  • Documentation and reporting: All actions and their results are recorded to ensure transparency, guarantee effective follow-up and provide recommendations for improving systems and processes.

  • Technology watch: Analysts keep abreast of new vulnerabilities, security tools and attack techniques to anticipate threats and reinforce vulnerability management processes.

VOC & SOC difference?

Unlike an SOC, which focuses on intrusion detection and incident prevention, the VOC focuses on proactive vulnerability management and reducing the attack surface.
