The Invoice Is the Architecture: How Ingest-Based Licensing Became Your Data Collection Policy
When a new threat emerges, security teams may need to investigate activity that began months ago. But what happens when the data they need was never collected, or was already discarded, because of the cost of keeping it?
In this TechTalks™ session, Gravwell experts Mike Wade and Dan Wheatley examine how ingest-based licensing can shape an organization’s security data strategy. Explore how sampling NetFlow, dropping DNS logs, filtering endpoint telemetry or shortening retention can create critical visibility gaps during historical investigations. The discussion also explores the operational impact of constrained data collection and how security leaders can rethink SIEM economics, retention and long-term visibility.
Key Takeaways:
-
How ingest-based pricing can influence what security data gets collected, filtered and retained
-
Why seemingly rational cost-saving decisions can create critical gaps during retrospective investigations
-
How data collection constraints affect analysts, breach investigations and overall security operations
- What questions to ask at your next SIEM renewal to evaluate the true cost of your security data strategy
Watch now to learn how to build a security data strategy around the visibility your organization needs, not the limits of your licensing model.
