What dacta global does

DACTA Global (legal entity DACTA SG Pte. Ltd.) is a Singapore-headquartered managed cybersecurity services provider operating Security Operations Centers (SOCs) that secure more than 150,000 endpoints across clients in Singapore and EMEA. The company is organized around four solution pillars: Detection & Response (Managed Detection & Response, Incident Response, Threat Intelligence, Vulnerability Monitoring), Assessment & Testing (Risk Assessment, Penetration Testing, Cloud Security Assessment, Application Security Testing), Consulting (Enterprise Security Architecture, CISO for Hire, Governance, Compliance & Regulatory), and Security Products (Managed Security & Support, Security for Microsoft, Security for Operational Technology). Its core technical differentiator is a SIEMless monitoring architecture built on Elastic that consolidates telemetry across a 30+ vendor certified stack (Trellix, McAfee, Symantec, VMware Carbon Black, Splunk, Tenable/Nessus, Qualys, Heimdal, Kaspersky, IBM, and others), mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, and supported by an in-house team of ethical hackers and incident responders.

Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring subscription managed services (MDR, vulnerability monitoring, threat intelligence, managed security and support), SLA-based incident response retainers, and project-based professional services (penetration testing, risk assessments, cloud and application security testing, CISO-for-hire engagements, governance and compliance work). Pricing is quote-based and tailored, with no public tiers, and sales is executed through a combination of direct enterprise field sales, a structured DACTA Partner Program of resellers and integration partners, and inside sales for mid-market prospects across Singapore and EMEA. Target verticals are concentrated in regulated and high-stakes environments, including financial and transactional services, healthcare, defense and military, energy and utilities, transportation and aviation, telecommunications, and government, alongside an SME segment served through proportionately scoped offerings. The company is privately held, holds ISO 27001, CREST (VA/PT), and Singapore Cyber Trust Mark certifications, and was named Top Managed Services Partner at the Elastic Partner Awards 2024 ASEAN.
