Choosing the right SOC as a Service partner can determine how quickly your security team detects, contains, and learns from attacks. This guide highlights the top 10 SOC as a service companies in the USA, focusing on 24×7 monitoring quality, detection and response maturity, compliance readiness, and total cost of ownership. By comparing leading SOC service providers on real-world criteria—coverage, integration, scalability, and support, you can shortlist vendors that match your industry, size, and risk profile with far greater confidence. 

In 2025, industry estimates suggest there are around 2,500 - 3,500 SOC as a Service (SOCaaS) providers in the USA, with the total expected to remain in a similar range through 2026. 

Below are the top 10 SOC Service providers in USA:

  • Price Range: Custom-quoted, generally positioned in the mid to upper price tier among SOC as a Service vendors. 

2. AT&T Cybersecurity (AlienVault)

AT&T’s security arm combines AlienVault technology with global SOC capacity to deliver managed SOC, SIEM, and SOCaaS capabilities for large and mid-sized enterprises.

  • Pros & Cons: Pros—strong brand, global network footprint, and broad service catalog; Cons—complex organization, slower agility than pure-play security vendors, and brand impact from recent data breach coverage. 
  • Recommended for: Large or upper-mid-market organizations, telecom-heavy or distributed networks, and public sector entities needing integrated connectivity plus managed security. 
  • Price Range: Custom enterprise pricing, typically suitable for medium to large budgets rather than cost-sensitive small businesses. 

3. Cloudflare

  • Certifications: Maintains independent SOC 2 / SOC 3 Type II reports for key cloud services (for example, ConnectWise RMM) and publishes security and compliance details via its trust and compliance portal. 
  • Pros & Cons: Pros—strong MSP focus, integrated platform, and 24/7 SOC that acts as an extension of the service provider; Cons—platform complexity and a history of product vulnerabilities that require disciplined patching and security hygiene.

6. Fortinet (FortiGuard SOCaaS)

  • Pros & Cons: Pros—tight integration with Fortinet Security Fabric, 24×7 monitoring by Fortinet experts, fast notification (as little as ~15 minutes) and clear guidance to remediate incidents; Cons—optimized mainly for Fortinet-centric networks and subject to Fortinet product vulnerability cycles, which demands strong patch management. 
  • Recommended for: Organizations that already standardize on FortiGate / Fortinet Security Fabric and want to “bolt on” a turnkey SOCaaS rather than build their own SOC or integrate a third-party MDR stack. 
  • Price Range: Sold as a Fabric device add-on / subscription service with custom quotes, typically mid-market to enterprise budgets, and more attractive when you already own substantial Fortinet infrastructure. 

7. Netsurion

US-based managed security provider delivering SOCaaS and MDR for distributed enterprises, franchises, and retail environments, often cited as a key SOCaaS market player.

  • Pros & Cons: Pros—ISO-certified 24/7 SOC, Open XDR that integrates diverse telemetry, strong compliance reporting, and options that scale from SMB to enterprise; Cons—brand recognition and ecosystem are smaller than the very largest global MSSPs, and the stack is opinionated around their EventTracker/Open XDR platform. 
  • Recommended for: Well-suited to resource-constrained IT teams, MSPs, and mid-market organizations that need a cost-efficient 24/7 SOC-as-a-Service with strong compliance support and don’t want to assemble their own SIEM/XDR stack. 
  • Price Range: Uses flexible, quote-based and tiered pricing designed to fit “any budget from SMBs to enterprise, typically positioning Netsurion in the mid-range for SOCaaS with good value for smaller and mid-sized organizations.

  • Price Range: Custom, quote-based MDR/SOCaaS pricing, generally positioned in the mid-range for MDR—more than basic log monitoring but below the cost and complexity of building a full in-house global SOC. 

9. Rapid7

  • Recommended for: Mid-market and enterprise organizations (roughly 200–20,000 employees) that want a modern MDR/XDR provider with its own analytics platform rather than building SIEM + SOAR tooling in-house. 
  • Price Range: Sold via subscription with environment-based MDR pricing (custom quotes); typically sits in the mid to upper price band versus basic MSSPs but below the total cost of building a comparable in-house 24×7 SOC.

  • Price Range: Uses custom, enterprise MSSP/MDR contracts rather than public SKUs, generally aligning with mid-to-high enterprise security budgets rather than small-business price points. 

How should you choose a SOCaaS provider in USA? 

Start by defining your baseline: data sensitivity, in-house skills, tech stack, and acceptable risk. Then choose SOCaaS providers using clear, verifiable criteria rather than marketing claims. 

Prioritise vendors that: 

  • Prove 24×7 coverage with US-aligned SLAs, named contacts, and mean time to detect/respond measured in minutes, not hours.  
  • Prioritise mssp companies in USA that already protect organisations with similar size, industry, and tech stack, and confirm they deliver US-hours threat hunting, incident response, and executive-ready reporting rather than basic alert forwarding. 
  • Integrate cleanly with your existing EDR, firewalls, cloud platforms, and ticketing so the managed security services SOC function can act on your environment from day one. 
  • Demonstrate experience with US regulations (HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOX, state privacy laws) and provide audit-ready reports, not just alert feeds. 
  • Offer transparent runbooks that show exactly what they will contain, escalate, or remediate—and what still depends on your team. 
  • Publish third-party attestations (SOC 2, ISO 27001) and customer references from US organisations of a similar size and industry. 
  • Operate as a true managed security service provider, with clear ownership of detection and response outcomes, not just tool hosting or log collection. 

if you are still evaluating delivery models, use our mssp guide to understand how managed security service providers structure monitoring, response, and SLAs, so you can choose a SOCaaS partner whose operating model matches your US organisation’s risk and compliance needs.
