SOC (security operations center)
A SOC (security operations center) is the team of analysts, processes and tools that watches a company's systems around the clock and handles every alert, from investigation to containment. As a service (SOCaaS), an outside provider runs it under a subscription.

Digital forensics
Digital forensics is the technical investigation of an incident to reconstruct what happened: how the attackers got in, what they touched and when. It preserves evidence so it holds up in an audit, an insurance claim or a legal process.
XDR (extended detection and response)
XDR (extended detection and response) widens the reach of EDR: beyond devices, it correlates what happens in email, the network, identities and the cloud on a single platform. That way it detects attacks that move across several fronts, which each tool on its own would miss.
