9 Common Mistakes in Building A Security Operations Center (Chinese)

This post was published at cww.com.cn , 2004, where I summarized the 9 common mistakes at a Security Operations Center(SOC) project, which was becoming hotter and hotter at China.  In brief, they are:

1. unbalanced resource investment on security elements and management
2. unmatched organization structure
3. misunderstanding of SOC as a pure product. It’s a project on management
4. without consideration of IT infrastructure accordingly
5. wrong project goal
6. not enough support from the software vendors and/or system integrators
7. without thorough understanding of the SOC products under implementation
8. withoug corresponding management processes, such as monitoring and incidents management
9. regarding the finish of the product implemantation as the end of the SOC construction.
