Ongoing control operation
Managed security controls for growing teams
Where it fits the engagement, TSC Security operates specific security controls that otherwise fall between internal teams. Whether managed security is a good fit, and what it covers, is agreed case by case around the client's systems, responsibilities, and support needs. It does not imply a 24/7 security operations center.
Who this helps
- Companies with limited security operations capacity
- Teams implementing endpoint and identity controls
- Organizations maintaining audit-ready controls
- Companies coordinating several security vendors
Problems it addresses
- Recurring controls do not have clear owners
- Endpoint and access administration is inconsistent
- Vulnerability findings are not tracked to closure
- Security awareness and evidence tasks are missed
- Leadership lacks a consolidated view of control operation

Frequently asked questions
Can TSC Security work with our existing tools?
Yes. TSC Security works within common cloud, identity, endpoint, engineering, and compliance systems already selected by the client.
What control work can TSC Security operate?
Depending on the engagement, the scope can include endpoint and device controls, identity administration, vulnerability coordination, security awareness, recurring reviews, and evidence support. We will tell you during scoping which of these we can take on for your environment.
What monitoring and response coverage is included?
Coverage hours, monitoring, escalation, and response obligations are defined in the engagement. A 24/7 security operations center is not implied.
How is managed security different from the broader team engagement?
Managed security focuses on operating specific agreed controls. The broader team engagement can also include security leadership, GRC operations, and security engineering.
