The frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks is constantly increasing — from ransomware and phishing to advanced social engineering tactics — making protection more complex than ever. In 2024, the average time it took for companies to detect an attack was as long as 194 days, giving attackers ample time to steal data and cause damage. At the same time, the demand for qualified cybersecurity professionals far exceeds the supply, and this gap is constantly widening.
Imagine the following situation: someone on your team accidentally opens an email that seems harmless, after which access to important documents becomes difficult or completely impossible. Clients are unable to use your services, and your IT team is trying to figure out what happened. Although it sounds rare, such incidents happen much more often than we think — and can often be prevented or resolved quickly with adequate support. That is why Čikom established the first Security Operations Center (SOC) in Montenegro — so that local companies can operate smoothly and maintain the trust of their clients.
Why is SOC important for every company?
SOC (Security Operations Center) is not just a service, but your dedicated partner in protecting digital assets. While you do business, our team monitors and protects your digital environment, enabling you to:
