Solution introduction
FoxTech DEFEND: A fully managed 24/7 UK-based Security Operations Centre - protecting financial firms from real threats with real experts
FoxTech DEFEND is a fully managed Security Operations Centre (SOC)-as-a-Service, purpose-built for financial services firms who need more than just another tool. It delivers hands-on, expert-led protection against cyber threats - customised to the way your business actually works
Unlike many “alert-only” services, DEFEND is our 24/7, UK-based SOC, manned by experienced cybersecurity experts who take full responsibility for threat detection, investigation, and response. We don’t just flood you with alerts, we learn your environment, understand your business priorities, and tailor our services to focus on what matters most. You get clear, actionable guidance, not boilerplate tickets or templated reports.
This is a services-led solution, not a one-size-fits-all platform. We integrate with your existing systems and act as an extension of your internal team, offering practical support across:
- Real-time threat detection and incident response
- Compliance-aligned reporting and audit support
- Seamless integration with your existing tech stack
- Optional vCISO guidance aligned to board-level risk and regulatory expectations
DEFEND is designed not only to keep you safe, but also to help firms meet increasing regulatory pressures from the FCA, SYSC, PS21/3, and DORA.
Whether you’re a wealth manager, platform provider, or private bank, DEFEND delivers enterprise-grade security as a service, without the cost or complexity of building your own SOC.
With FoxTech DEFEND, you don’t just get alerts - you get experts who understand your business and keep it safe.
