MSSP vs In-House Security

Why UK Businesses Outsource Security to an MSSP

Building an in-house SOC in the UK requires a minimum of 5–8 analysts to provide 24/7 coverage, plus a SIEM platform, EDR tooling, threat intelligence subscriptions and a CISO to lead it. Total cost: £500,000–£1M+ per year before tooling.

Baycop delivers the same capability — certified analysts, enterprise tooling, 24/7 coverage — for a predictable monthly fee. Most clients achieve full SOC coverage for less than the cost of a single senior security hire.

FAQ

Common Questions About Managed Security Services

What is a managed security service provider (MSSP)?

An MSSP is an outsourced provider that monitors and manages your security systems 24/7. Baycop acts as your dedicated security team — running a SOC, managing SIEM and EDR tools, responding to incidents and keeping you compliant — without the cost of building it in-house.

What is the difference between an MSP and an MSSP?

An MSP (Managed Service Provider) manages your general IT infrastructure — help desk, servers, endpoints and networks. An MSSP (Managed Security Service Provider) focuses specifically on cybersecurity — threat monitoring, detection, response and compliance. Baycop provides both under one contract.

What does SOC as a Service include?

Baycop SOC as a Service includes 24/7 security event monitoring, SIEM ingestion and correlation, threat intelligence, behavioural analytics, L1–L3 analyst triage, incident escalation and response, and monthly reporting — all delivered from our Security Operations Centre.

Which compliance frameworks do you support?

Baycop supports GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2, Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, NIS2 and DORA. Our vCISO service can lead your certification programme end-to-end.

How quickly do you respond to a security incident?

Our SLA commits to a 15-minute response for P1 (critical) incidents, 1-hour for P2 and 4-hour for P3. Our IR team can begin containment remotely within minutes of detection.

Can you work alongside our existing IT team?

Yes. Many clients retain an internal IT team for day-to-day support while Baycop handles the security layer. We integrate with your existing tools and processes and provide a dedicated escalation path for your team.
