A credible, jargon-free source on family online safety.

SOCHQ is a security operations center for the home — built by a cybersecurity engineer who spent a career protecting businesses, now protecting families. Available for interviews, expert commentary, and data requests.

What we can speak to

Protecting kids and families on the home network — practical, non-fear-mongering.
Online predators, grooming, and the rise of financial sextortion (and why boys are the primary target).
Scams aimed at kids and teens — gaming currency, fake giveaways, phishing.
Smart-home and IoT security in ordinary households.
Data breaches and what families should actually do about them.
What businesses' security teams know that families don't — and how to close that gap.

About the founder

DJ Durko is the founder of SOCHQ and a cybersecurity systems engineer in the managed-security industry, where he builds and runs the security operations centers that businesses rely on to watch their networks around the clock. DJ Durko founded SOCHQ to bring that same protection to the place that needed it most — the family home — translated out of jargon and into plain language.

Quotable lines

"Every business on earth has a security team watching its network. The place where your kids grow up online has a Wi-Fi password."

"The threat to kids doesn't kick down the door — it arrives as a friendly message in a game they already play."

"The single most protective thing a parent can do is free: tell your kid they can come to you about anything online, and they'll never be in trouble for it."
