Build the capability to detect and respond — the right way. We help you plan, design and build a Security Operations Centre, or select and govern a managed SOC/MDR provider. We advise and implement; you (or your provider) operate it.
A Security Operations Centre (SOC) is the people, process and technology that monitor your environment, detect threats and coordinate response. Standing one up — or deciding whether to build it in-house, co-source it, or outsource to a managed provider — is a significant strategic and technical undertaking.
Schnell Technocraft provides SOC consulting and build services. We assess your needs, design the right SOC operating model (in-house, hybrid or managed), give you an objective build-vs-buy decision, implement the SIEM/SOAR platform (Microsoft Sentinel and others), engineer MITRE-mapped detection use cases and playbooks, and set up the processes and skills to run it. We are a vendor-neutral advisor and builder — we design and stand up your SOC capability; you, or the managed provider you choose, operate it day to day.
Our Technology Ecosystem







































You have security tools but no structured monitoring, detection or response.
Unsure whether to build an in-house SOC, co-source, or outsource to an MDR.
A round-the-clock SOC is hard and expensive to staff and run in-house.
You need demonstrable monitoring and response — and a credible plan.
Advisory and implementation — we design and build; you (or your provider) operate.
Define the right SOC model — in-house, hybrid or managed — aligned to your risk and budget.
Objective evaluation and selection of a managed SOC / MDR provider where outsourcing fits.
Architect and implement Microsoft Sentinel (or your platform) with SOAR automation.
A MITRE ATT&CK-mapped detection catalogue and content, designed around your risks.
Incident-response runbooks, escalation and ITIL-aligned SOC processes.
Roles, shift models, RACI and the skills plan to run the SOC.
Log sources, data pipeline, threat intelligence and tooling architecture.
Benchmark with SOC-CMM, define metrics and a prioritised maturity roadmap.
A structured path to standing up — or selecting — a Security Operations Centre.
Needs, risk & current state.
Build, hybrid or buy.
Operating model & architecture.
SIEM/SOAR & use cases.
People, process & playbooks.
Metrics, uplift & handover.
We are a vendor-neutral advisor and builder, not a SOC operator. We help you choose the right model, design and stand up the platform, engineer the detections and processes, and enable your team — or select and govern a managed provider — so you end up with a running SOC capability you own and control.
honest build-vs-buy advice
your choice
you operate
Design and build your own SOC capability end to end.
Evaluate, select and oversee a managed SOC / MDR provider.
Design and deploy Microsoft Sentinel and SOAR.
Assess maturity and close gaps across people, process and tech.
A proven method — assess, design, build and enable.
Understand your risk, requirements, current tooling and in-house skills.
Design the SOC operating model, architecture and build-vs-buy decision.
Build the in-house capability, or evaluate and select an MDR provider.
Deploy SIEM/SOAR and engineer detections, playbooks and processes.
Train your team, document everything and hand over a running capability.
A clear path to detection and response capability — the right SOC model chosen, the platform designed and built, detections and playbooks engineered, and your team (or your chosen provider) enabled to operate it — so you can monitor and respond with confidence, owning the capability yourself.
We advise on build vs buy objectively — we don't push you onto a SOC of our own.
Deep Microsoft Sentinel and Defender expertise, plus other platforms.
We design, implement and enable; you keep control and ownership.
Strategy, architecture, detection engineering and enablement in one partner.
No. We are a SOC consulting and build partner, not a SOC operator. We help you design and stand up your SOC, or select and govern a managed SOC / MDR provider, and we engineer the platform, detections and processes. Day-to-day round-the-clock operation is run by your own team or your chosen managed provider.
It depends on your risk, scale, budget and in-house skills. We give you an objective build-vs-buy assessment and, where outsourcing fits, help you evaluate and select the right MDR / managed-SOC provider.
Microsoft Sentinel and other leading SIEM/SOAR platforms, designed and implemented to fit your environment and integrated with Microsoft Defender and your other tools.
What is detection use-case engineering?
Yes. We benchmark your SOC maturity (for example with SOC-CMM), identify gaps across people, process and technology, and give you a prioritised uplift roadmap.
Yes. We design IR playbooks, runbooks and escalation paths as part of SOC setup, aligned to your incident-response plan.
Tell us where you are — no SOC yet, an existing one to uplift, or weighing build vs buy. We'll come back within one business day with the right expert and a clear next step.
