Managing security data has never been more challenging or more crucial. Today’s IT environments are producing overwhelming log volumes from countless fragmented sources, all while compliance regulations demand longer data retention periods. For many organizations, the sheer cost of storing, managing, and analyzing these logs creates a significant hurdle in their ability to maintain compliance and effectively combat cyber threats.
But what if security log management didn’t have to be so complex or expensive? With Snare Agent and Snare Central, organizations can reduce SIEM costs, optimize data storage, and simplify management. Here’s how Snare’s innovative approach is transforming log management for businesses worldwide.
The Challenges of Security Logging
These pain points lead to skyrocketing operational costs, forcing organizations to choose between overspending or compromising their compliance and security posture.
Snare’s Solution to Log Management Challenges
Snare Agent and Snare Central take a smarter, more cost-effective approach to log management. Designed with scalability, compliance, and affordability in mind, Snare helps organizations optimize their security data while eliminating unnecessary expenses.
Here’s how Snare tackles the biggest barriers to security data logging:
1. Cut Log Ingestion Costs by Up to 40%
One way to control SIEM expenses is by reducing ingestion costs. With Snare, you only send the most critical data to your SIEM platform.
By filtering logs at the source, organizations can significantly lower indexing and ingestion costs without sacrificing data integrity or volume.
2. Massive Reduction in Data Storage Costs
Storing data for compliance or threat analysis can quickly become unsustainable. Snare reduces storage costs by an impressive 85% by compressing data to just 15% of its original size.
For businesses that need to store data for more than 90 days, Snare ensures long-term retention doesn’t break the bank.
3. Infrastructure Savings
Heavy forwarders and other expensive infrastructure components are often required to handle massive log volumes. Snare reduces this dependency, minimizing hardware needs and cutting infrastructure costs significantly.
Not only does this lower hardware acquisition costs, but it also reduces the expenses tied to maintaining complex systems.
4. Streamlined Management Efficiency
Managing fragmented logging systems across hybrid or multi-cloud environments is resource-intensive and time-consuming. With Snare’s centralized management and optimized data handling, security teams can simplify log oversight.
By eliminating unnecessary costs spent on infrastructure and ingestion, teams have more time to focus on threat detection and analysis rather than platform management and troubleshooting.
5. Total Cost Savings of up to 50%
Snare delivers enterprise-wide cost savings greater than the sum of its parts.
For example, an organization currently spending $1.8 million on SIEM costs like Splunk could save approximately $1 million over three years with Snare’s cost reduction measures.
These savings allow companies to reinvest in more strategic cybersecurity initiatives while maintaining compliance and operational efficiency.
