Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

  • What are the different types of cyber security services you offer?

    We provide end-to-end cyber security services and data protection services. This means we can support you at any stage of your cyber security journey. Whether you want help building out a security strategy and technology roadmap, technical consultancy to solve a specific challenge or implement a project, or a full managed security service where you outsource your security to us — we can do it.

    If you’re not sure where to start, we usually recommend starting with a cyber security assessment or Microsoft Threat Check to identify your security gaps priorities. We’ll then present you with a range of options on how you can progress from there.

  • What is the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA)?

    The Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA) is a group of Microsoft’s top security partners that offer Microsoft-verified services and solutions built on Microsoft Security products.

    We’re proud to be a member of MISA with Microsoft verified MXDR solution status.

  • What is a Security Operations Centre (SOC) and where is yours based?

    A cyber Security Operations Centre (SOC or CSOC) is a central location where security teams monitor and defend against cyber attacks around the clock. The SOC uses advanced technology and skilled analysts to detect, investigate, and respond to potential threats based on real-time data.

    Only very large organisations can maintain a SOC internally, due to the costs and skills involved. Typically, SMBs and Enterprise scale organisations will outsource their security to a Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) like Chorus. Therefore, the MSSP’s SOC team will manage the security for multiple customers. There are many benefits associated with this model, which has led to increased demand for such services in recent years, as cyber threats have increased.

    Unlike many MSSPs, our Security Operations Centre (SOC) is based in the UK. Even better for Bristol organisations, our SOC is located locally at 1 Serbert Way, Portishead, Bristol, BS20 7GD.

  • What are MDR and MXDR services?

    MDR means ‘Managed Detection and Response’, and MXDR means ‘Managed Extended Detection and Response’. These are common terms in the security industry.

    Both MDR and MXDR are forms of managed cyber security services delivered by a CSOC.

    We’d recommend reading this article to understand what these services do, and this article to learn more about their benefits.
