What Does an IT NOC Analyst Do?
The IT department in an organization has multiple sub-departments. Every member is focused on their own role. As a result, they may have no idea that there’s a problem with the IT infrastructure. Therefore, the network operations center, known as the NOC, is there to monitor and send you alerts that may occur. They monitor all network activity.
NOC Technicians monitor the organization’s IT infrastructure 24/7. For example, they have monitoring tools that alert them if anything diverts from the norm. Afterward, the NOC Analyst follows a set protocol to notify the responsible IT departments. The primary goal of the NOC analyst is to proactively identify incidents and address them before they become problems.
Responsibilities of IT NOC Analyst include:
- Answer service requests via email, telephone, or in person.
- Monitor and identify major issues. Report them to management.
- Contact hardware and telecom vendors for support as necessary.

Certifications for a NOC Analyst
Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA)
The CCNA, offered by Cisco, is a key certification for all NOC Analysts. It requires an entry-level course and test, covering network access, IP connectivity, IP services, security, automation, and programmability. This certification demonstrates the basic skills needed for a NOC engineer’s work.
CompTIA Network+
While the CCNA focuses on Cisco networks, the CompTIA certification is vendor-neutral and applicable to any provider. Like the CCNA, it is a key certification but is more versatile, showing fluency in any network. The certification test covers essential networking concepts such as cabling, devices, storage technologies, network management, security, and troubleshooting.
ITIL
An ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) certification shows that a professional understands IT basics and can apply them to customer and business needs. It covers IT assets, accessibility, and resources that provide value to customers. The certification indicates that the candidate understands how to deliver and maintain IT-related software or hardware.
