A lot of SIEM spend pays for data that is only ever read during an investigation. Mitigate reads that data from the system that already holds it, so investigations, hunts, rule work and response stop depending on everything landing in the SIEM first. You keep the detections you rely on and send less.
Searches and cases run through Mitigate, which reads your SIEM alongside every neighbouring tool.
ResultFewer people need SIEM seats
The record shows which sources actually informed verdicts and which never did.
ResultA list of sources you can drop or tier down
Cut ingestion and retention where the data is never read, and keep investigating it in place.
ResultA smaller contract with the same coverage tests passing
Mitigate talks to your SIEM, and to every other tool you run, through each tool's own API. For every task it queries whichever system holds the data, works through the evidence and runs approved actions through the connected tools. A typical path: take search, case work, hunting and response off the SIEM first, check that nothing is missed, then bring those measured results to the renewal and cut ingest and retention to match.
A proof of concept with Mitigate is scored on these measures, against your own alerts and your own tools.
| No. | Measure | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Daily ingest freed | GB per day that tests show can stop flowing into the SIEM with detections intact. |
| 02 | Retention freed | Sources, or days of retention, shown to be safe to move out of premium SIEM storage. |
| 03 | Off-SIEM workflows | Investigations and hunts that finished without any step needing the SIEM. |
| 04 | Off-SIEM responses | Approved responses that finished without any step needing the SIEM. |
| 05 | Tests still passing | Agreed detection and case tests that still pass once the offload is simulated. |
| 06 | Annual saving | What the verified reduction is worth per year at the SIEM rates in your contract. |
Measure which sources actually inform verdicts before you sign, so the next contract is sized on evidence.
