Google SecOps deployment
Deploying Google Security Operations (Google’s cloud security operations platform): bring scattered logs in, normalize them, write the detection rules, and leave your team able to run it themselves.
01
Who it’s for
- Logs are spread across firewalls, endpoints and cloud services, and can’t be searched when an incident happens
- You want security monitoring but don’t have a large security operations team
- You have adopted, or are evaluating, Google SecOps
- Your detection rules produce too many false positives, and no one handles the alerts
02
What we do
Assessment
We inventory log sources and retention needs, and the threat scenarios you most need to detect.
Log ingestion and normalization
We bring logs from each source into the platform, convert them to UDM (Unified Data Model), and verify the field mappings.
Detection rules
We write and tune detection rules based on risk, reducing false positives step by step.
Alert handling
We define who receives alerts, how they are triaged and handled, and what the dashboards should show.
Handover and training
An operations manual and training, so your team can tune rules and handle incidents on its own.
03
How it works
1. Assess
Confirm log sources, priorities and the scenarios to detect.
2. Ingest
Bring logs in by priority and normalize them.
3. Detect and tune
Put detection rules live and tune them against real alerts.
4. Hand over
Deliver process documents, an operations manual and training.

05
Engagement cycle
Each cycle runs three months, six months or a year, depending on scope. At the end of each cycle we sit down with you and compare the results against the goals set at the start, then decide what the next cycle should cover, or whether to stop there.
Every cycle: audit → design → implement → check against the goals, then decide what's next
06
Pricing
Each engagement is estimated on its own: how many systems and how much data are involved, the people and time needed, and how long the cycle runs. Talk to us first and we’ll give you a number based on the actual scope, rather than quoting a price and then fitting the scope to it.
