Automated Rotations. Zero Spreadsheets.

Shift scheduling for MSSPs& Internal SOCs running 24/7

Automate analyst rotations, visualise coverage gaps, and end the last-minute scramble.

Built in conversation with SOC Managers and Analysts at leading MSSPs across EMEA, APAC and the Americas.

The problem

Most SOCs are still coordinating analyst coverage manually. It works until it doesn't.

Manual scheduling doesn't fail on day one. It fails the day your operation outgrows it.

  1. 01 ·

    Generic tools don't understand SOC operations.

    Generic scheduling software has no concept of SOC operations: analyst tiers, tier-based coverage, shift handovers, client SLAs, or follow-the-sun across offices.

  2. 02 ·

    Manual scheduling costs hours. Complexity makes it worse.

    Shift grids don't build themselves, and in a SOC they're not simple: 24/7 coverage, the right T1/T2/T3 mix on every shift, and nights, weekends and holidays spread fairly. Managers work all of it out by hand, every month.

  3. 03 ·

    Analysts can't see where they'll be next month.

    When the schedule is only finished a week or two out, analysts can't plan leave, childcare or anything else around shifts that don't exist yet. Every late change lands on someone who had already made plans.

    Time and Cost of building your own scheduler

    When nothing off the shelf fits, the fallback is building one in-house. That means hiring or contracting software developers, or pulling your own engineers off the work they were hired for. Either way it's months before it's usable, and a cost that keeps coming every time rotations, tiers or rules change.

How it differs

Built for security operations. Not adapted from retail.

A generic scheduler and SOC Rotate start from different assumptions about what a shift is.

Spreadsheets & generic scheduling software
SOC Rotate
Source of truth
A spreadsheet or generic tool, out of date by the next shift
One live schedule everyone reads from — always current
Coverage
Fill open shifts
Per-tier, per-client minimum enforced — flagged the moment a shift drops below it
Skill mix
Anyone can cover any shift
Tier-aware (T1/T2/T3): coverage counts against the mix a shift actually needs
Delivery
Multi-location, single company — no concept of an external client account
Clients are first-class: each has its own SLA target and the offices that serve it, chained across them for follow-the-sun hand-off
Equity
Tracks hours worked
Fairness ledger scores nights, weekends and holidays against weights you set
Changes
A swap or leave request is a manual grid edit
Leave and swaps arrive with the shifts they empty, who can cover, and the rest check done
Continuity
No concept of a hand-off
Structured handover notes carry incident context between shifts
How it works

Configure once. Generate months ahead. Resolve what changes.

Three steps replace the monthly scheduling ritual, and only the last one happens more than once.

STEP 01

Configure your delivery model.

Set your shift types and times, the minimum analysts per tier on each one, rest rules and holiday calendars.

STEP 02

Generate the whole horizon.

One action builds the rotation for every analyst across the months ahead, respecting coverage minimums, rest windows and your working-time policy.

STEP 03

Resolve gaps before clients see them.

Leave, swaps, sick days. Every change shows what it does to coverage before it's approved, and you choose who covers the shift while you approve it.

Product

Everything a 24/7 SOC needs.

Purpose-built for multi-client security delivery: tier-based coverage, fairness your analysts can audit, follow-the-sun hand-offs, and a full audit trail.

01

Automated scheduling

Describe a repeating pattern and the schedule runs forward from it, or state the demand and the rules and the solver builds a roster that meets them

02

AI Assistant

Ask Iris who’s on call, whether next week has a gap, or how fairness landed this month, and get an answer from your own rota. Ask Iris to book leave, swap a shift or approve a request, and you confirm the change before anything happens.

03

Leave and swaps

Leave arrives with the shifts it empties and the people who could genuinely cover them. Swaps arrive with the rest check already done. Approving becomes a decision, not a calculation.

04

Fairness ledger

Nights, weekends and holidays score against weights you set, and every total comes apart into the parts that produced it. The argument about who always gets the weekends ends.

05

MSSP multi-tenant and follow-the-sun

Every client carries its own SLA target and the offices that serve it, with coverage swept across all of them. Chain a client across offices and you see the hand-off gaps in minutes before you save, with a nightly sweep alerting both ends of a hole.

06

Handover

Open incidents, live hunts and escalation context are written down before anyone clocks off. Where a client moves between offices, the note moves with it.

FAQ

Common questions.

Have something specific to your SOC? Speak to sales.

What industries and teams can use SOC Rotate?
MSSP and internal security operations centres, network operations centres, and any 24/7 support or operations team running shift coverage around the clock.
How quickly can we get set up?
Most teams are live within 30 minutes. You configure your shift model, add your analysts, and generate your first rotation in the same session. A guided onboarding call is available for larger teams.
What about public holidays and on-call?
Holiday calendars are synced for every region you operate in, and you can add your own dates on top. On-call is its own schedule with roles — Primary, Backup — filled by rotations you define: weekly, daily, every few hours, monthly or a repeating pattern, on call out of hours, in business hours or around the clock, across offices. Every turn is checked against leave, night shifts and rest on the main rotation, and any hours a role must cover but nobody holds are reported before you publish.
How does the fairness ledger actually work?
Every unsocial shift carries a weight you set, and weekends and public holidays stack on top of it. The ledger tracks rolling 30, 60, 90 and 365-day totals per analyst, and every total comes apart into the parts that produced it — so when someone disputes their position, the answer holds.
