Masarrati engineered Hawkeye XDR, a next-generation Cyber Security Operations Center (CSOC) platform, designed to provide enterprises with a single pane of glass for threat detection, response, cloud posture, attack surface visibility, and incident orchestration.
The platform ingests telemetry from hundreds of endpoints, correlates security signals in near real time, and delivers actionable intelligence to SOC teams, security leaders, and executives—at enterprise scale.
Phase 2 focused on transforming Hawkeye from a feature-complete SOC solution into a production-ready, enterprise-scalable security platform capable of supporting real-world SOC, XDR, CSPM, ASM, and ITSM workflows.
The challenge of project
As customer adoption and platform scope expanded, the original architecture faced critical enterprise challenges:
- Processing massive security telemetry volumes with low latency
- Supporting sub-minute alerting and rapid incident response
- Enabling enterprise SSO, MFA, and IAM integration
- Achieving deep observability for containerized services
- Scaling reporting, exports, and dashboards without performance degradation
- Integrating CSPM, ASM, and ITSM into a unified security workflow
- Maintaining high availability, compliance, and zero-downtime upgrades
The Solution of project
Masarrati executed a full-scale engineering modernization of the Hawkeye platform, delivering:
Cloud-Native & Scalable Architecture
- Fully containerized microservices using Docker and Kubernetes
- Automated deployments and environment onboarding
- CI/CD and GitOps workflows for reliable, repeatable releases
Enterprise Identity & Security
- Centralized authentication using Keycloak
- Enterprise SSO, MFA, and tenant-aware RBAC
- Unified security enforcement across UI and APIs
SOC, XDR & Threat Intelligence
- High-throughput ingestion pipeline (Wazuh → Kafka → OpenSearch)
- Graph-based threat correlation using Neo4j
- Near real-time alert correlation mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework
CSPM, ASM & Risk Visibility
- Native CSPM integration with upgraded Prowler
- ASM optimization using OpenSearch caching for performance and scale
- Interactive risk dashboards with drill-down investigation flows
Incident & Workflow Orchestration
- Unified incident model supporting Zoho Desk and ServiceDesk
- Real-time ticket updates, comments, and lifecycle actions
- Airflow-based orchestration for hunts, cases, and background pipelines
Observability & Reporting
- Extended ELK stack for container-level monitoring and diagnostics
- Queue-based reporting for large CSV/PDF exports
- Executive-ready dashboards for board-level visibility
What We Delivered
