CREST SOC accreditation: What it means for our customers

At Talanos, our mission has always been to provide exceptional cybersecurity services to our clients, safeguarding their digital assets without compromise. Today, we’re proud to announce that we have achieved CREST SOC Accreditation, an industry-recognized mark of excellence for Security Operations Centers (SOCs). This milestone underscores our commitment to delivering the highest standards of security and service quality.

What is CREST SOC accreditation?

CREST is a globally recognised accreditation body that sets rigorous standards for cybersecurity service providers. Its SOC accreditation program evaluates the operational effectiveness, technology use, staff competence, and governance frameworks of Security Operations Centers. To achieve this accreditation, an organisation must demonstrate a commitment to quality, consistency and best practices in managing cybersecurity threats.

What does this mean for you, our customers?

1. Trusted and Verified Security Partner

Earning CREST SOC Accreditation is no small feat. It means that Talanos Cybersecurity has been independently assessed and verified to meet globally recognised standards. You can trust that our SOC is operating at the forefront of industry best practices, ensuring your digital assets are in safe hands.

2. Exceptional Service Quality

This accreditation confirms that our SOC adheres to strict processes for detecting, analysing and responding to security threats. Whether it’s proactive threat hunting, real-time incident monitoring or post-incident recovery, our operations are designed to deliver exceptional results every time.

3. Compliance and Peace of Mind

Partnering with a CREST-accredited SOC helps you meet your own compliance requirements. From GDPR and DORA to ISO 27001, our processes align with major regulatory and security frameworks, giving you peace of mind that your organisation is meeting its obligations.

4. Proactive and Advanced Threat Management

Our CREST-accredited SOC leverages the latest tools, techniques, and threat intelligence to stay ahead of evolving cyber risks. This proactive approach ensures your organization is not just reacting to threats but actively mitigating them before they escalate.

What CREST evaluated during our accreditation

To achieve this accreditation, Talanos underwent a comprehensive assessment, which included:

  • Organisational Governance: Review of our internal policies, risk management practices, and compliance frameworks.

  • Service Delivery: Evaluation of our monitoring, detection, and incident response capabilities.

  • Staff Competence: Validation of the qualifications, training and experience of our SOC analysts and engineers.

  • Technology Use: Inspection of our cutting-edge tools and technologies, including automation, SIEM systems and threat intelligence platforms.

  • Processes and Procedures: Analysis of our incident detection, escalation, and response workflows to ensure efficiency and consistency.

The threat landscape is constantly evolving, with cybercriminals becoming more sophisticated by the day. Achieving CREST SOC Accreditation demonstrates that Talanos Cybersecurity is equipped to handle these challenges, providing our customers with the highest level of protection and support.
