How a financial services company deployed 24/7 Security Operations Center coverage using AB7 Solutions, saving 65% vs traditional SOC services.
Regional US Financial Services Firm (Fintech)
Ongoing - 12+ months
A growing fintech company needed 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) coverage to meet regulatory requirements and protect customer data. Traditional SOC providers (managed security services) quoted $350,000-400,000/year for 24/7 coverage. Building an in-house SOC team would require hiring 6-8 security engineers at $150,000+ salary each. They needed an affordable solution without sacrificing security.
AB7 Solutions deployed a dedicated team of 4 security professionals working in two overlapping shifts (12-hour shifts, 6 days/week) covering all business hours plus 4 hours of evening coverage. The team monitored security alerts through SIEM (Splunk), performed threat analysis, and escalated incidents. AB7 provided security certifications (CEH, CompTIA Security+) and ongoing training. Implementation included custom dashboards and incident response runbooks.

"We were quoted $350,000 for traditional SOC services. AB7 Solutions delivered better 24/7 coverage at one-third the cost. Our security team loves having the dedicated analysts who are deeply integrated into our systems. We've detected and blocked threats in minutes instead of hours. This is a no-brainer for fintech companies."

A 50-provider healthcare practice was struggling with medical billing backlogs. Their in-house billing team of 3 was overwhelmed, resulting in delayed claims submission (averaging 8-10 days), high claim rejection rates (15%), and significant revenue leakage. They needed to expand their billing capacity quickly without hiring permanent employees.
A fast-growing SaaS company landed a major enterprise contract requiring 5x their current development capacity. They needed to grow from 5 in-house engineers to 25 within 90 days. Traditional hiring timelines of 60-90 days per engineer would be too slow. They needed experienced engineers who could integrate immediately into their development workflows, tech stack, and agile processes.
A B2B technology vendor was generating 40 qualified leads/month through marketing, with a blended CAC (customer acquisition cost) of $1,200. They wanted to reach 120+ leads/month but lacked internal capacity. Their 2-person marketing team was focused on campaign execution, not strategy. They needed additional marketing resources without hiring overhead.
