Good afternoon

I'm working on doing a quick benchmarking survey on behalf of our CISO regarding SOC's. I did find a previous posting 
regarding an annual SOC survey and am reviewing that dataset and report. However, we would like to try and benchmark as 
many Higher Ed and Academic Medical Centers as possible.  I will be happy to share the results of what I collect if 
there is expressed interest. Please feel free to respond to me directly  - Cynthia.carlton () rochester

1)      Does your organization have a formal Security Operations Center?

a.       Is it fully staffed with internal resources?

b.       Is it fully outsourced?

c.       Is it co-managed with a service provider?

2)      If you do not have a Security Operations Center is it on your roadmap

a.       Are you planning to fully staffed with internal resources?

b.       Are you planning to fully outsourced?

c.       Are you planning to co-managed with a service provider?

The specific data we have been asked to report on was -  how many other Academic Medical Centers and Universities have 
deployed a SOC and are they are doing it all in house or do they outsource some or all of it?
