Why It Matters
- Breaches can take months to detect; retaining logs that long in Warm/Cold tiers is costly.
- Large index sizes slow searches and inflate TCO. Moving data to the frozen tier reduces index sizes and accelerates analysis.
🛡️Retention for Security
Strengthen incident response and threat hunting with durable, readily restorable archives. Keep years of telemetry accessible without the cost and drag of oversized hot indexes.
- Faster investigations: Restore only what you need, without reindexing.
- Better detection: Long look-back windows to correlate dwell time and lateral movement.
- Operational agility: Optional caching to move large datasets and speed targeted restores.
✅Retention for Compliance
Meet mandates such as RBI Cyber Security Framework, HIPAA, SOX etc. with long-term, secure, immutable storage ready for audits and investigations.
- Regulatory alignment: Maintain required retention periods for multiple frameworks.
- Audit readiness: Enable quick retrieval of logs for compliance validation.
- Data integrity: Ensure logs are preserved immutably to meet evidentiary standards.
- Lower compliance cost: Store years of data at a fraction of Warm tier prices.
