SOC
Análisis Forense
The scientific examination and investigation of digital devices, logs, or data to identify, collect, preserve, and analyze evidence related to security incidents, enabling root-cause determination and supporting legal or disciplinary action, as described in NIST SP 800-86 and ISO/IEC 27037.
