In today’s business landscape, cybersecurity isn’t just about staying safe — it’s about staying competitive. While you’re reading this, your competitors could be investing in 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) monitoring to catch threats before they become disasters.
At ICG, this isn’t optional — 100% of our clients are protected by 24/7 SOC monitoring and threat response as a standard part of our managed services. That means our clients have a constant safety net, while many businesses (possibly including your competitors) are still leaving the door wide open for cybercriminals.
🚨 Why SMBs Are Prime Targets
A common myth among small and mid-sized businesses is:
"We’re too small for hackers to care about."
The truth? 43% of all cyberattacks target SMBs (Verizon DBIR), and most victims don’t realize it until weeks or months later. Why?
- Hackers know smaller companies often lack around-the-clock monitoring.
- Breaches that go undetected for even a few days can result in thousands in lost revenue and damaged client trust.

Suspicious activity is investigated and contained before it can spread.
3. Proactive Threat Hunting
SOC analysts look for hidden signs of compromise, even without alerts.
4. Compliance Safeguards
Meets HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NIST, and cyber insurance monitoring requirements.
5. Business Peace of Mind

📈 The Competitive Advantage of 24/7 SOC
Cybersecurity is now a selling point. Customers want proof their data is safe — and a SOC-backed MSP like ICG gives you that proof.

- Strong monitoring helps reduce cyber insurance premiums.
And here’s the key difference: At ICG, every single client receives 24/7 SOC monitoring and threat response as part of their managed services plan. If you’re not on that list, your competitors probably are.
