The edge365 days hot + UEBA

Quick answer

Securonix is a cloud-native SIEM vendor built around user and entity behaviour analytics. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Addison, Texas, it was one of the first vendors to argue that a SIEM should be judged on whether it detects a compromised insider rather than on how many logs it stores. Toby Weiss became chief executive in June 2026 — the company's third CEO in two years, which is worth registering when you assess roadmap stability, though product direction has stayed consistent across all three. The flagship is Securonix Unified Defense SIEM, built on a Snowflake data lake running on AWS, with 365 days of searchable hot data included rather than the 90-day window most SIEMs make you pay to extend. Around it sits Securonix EON, the AI-reinforced detection-investigation-response layer, with UEBA, SOAR, Autonomous Threat Sweeper, threat intelligence and Data Pipeline Manager. Securonix has been a Gartner Magic Quadrant for SIEM Leader six consecutive times, most recently in 2025 — a record few competitors match. Pricing meters on GB per day: a capacity band with hybrid commitment plus pay-as-you-go and pre-negotiated overages. Note that overages default to 120% of your GB/day rate if you do not negotiate that number in the order form, so negotiate it; Data Pipeline Manager is how you keep the meter honest, flexing one entitlement across three tiers that consume at 1.0x, 0.5x and 0.25x. In February 2026 Securonix launched Sam, the AI SOC Analyst, and the Agentic Mesh, built with AWS on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. Sam is priced on measured analyst productivity — minutes of AI-performed work — rather than data volume or seats, which no other SIEM vendor does. It is genuinely interesting and deserves genuine scrutiny: establish exactly how analyst-equivalent work is verified before treating it as risk transfer, and note the bill grows as Sam does more. The honest limitation: there is no air-gapped or on-premises deployment. SaaS, BYO-AWS and BYO-Snowflake all keep the analytics control plane in Securonix's cloud — BYO changes where your data lives, not who operates the platform. Read more ↓ Show less ↑

The thesis

Why “a year of hot data, behaviour first” is the whole story

Most SIEMs make you choose between keeping a log and affording it — 90 days hot, then a cold archive you must restore before you can search. That compromise stays invisible until an intrusion turns out to predate your window. Securonix bet on the opposite: 365 days of hot, searchable data on a Snowflake data lake, with behavioural analytics at the core rather than bolted on— so the investigation that reaches back eleven months is a query, and the stolen credential that breaks no rule still climbs a risk score. That is a genuine, durable position, and six consecutive Gartner Leader placements reflect it. The honest corollary is architectural: the control plane is always Securonix’s cloud, so an air-gap mandate rules it out entirely, and the GB/day meter still rewards the discipline of tiering your data.

01
One data lake

One data lake, not a tiered archive

365 days stay hot and queryable in Snowflake, where most SIEMs keep 90 days hot and charge to rehydrate. An eight-month-old trail is a search, not a restore ticket.

02
Behaviour before rules

Behaviour before rules

UEBA scores deviation from a learned baseline, catching insiders and stolen credentials that rules miss. Run both, and judge Securonix on behaviour, not ingestion cost.

03
Data Pipeline Manager

Data Pipeline Manager as the cost control

DPM routes data across three tiers on one entitlement: Analytics 1.0x, Investigation 0.5x, Basic 0.25x. Claimed gains of 30 to 70 percent are directional; model your own logs.

04
Agentic Mesh as

Agentic Mesh as a governed orchestration layer

Coordinates AI agents across detection, investigation and response on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, meant to be auditable and reversible. In a pilot, see the audit trail.

05
Open deployment, closed

Open deployment, closed control plane

Every model runs analytics in Securonix’s cloud. BYO-Snowflake in an India region answers data residency, not an air-gap mandate, so confirm which your regulator needs.

Start with the deployment decision — cloud is acceptable, or it is not — then size the GB/day band after tiering your data with Data Pipeline Manager, not before.

Track 02 · Buying guides

Buy it like you’ve done this before

The procurement playbook TechBag runs with IT buyers — steps, licensing cheat-sheet, and the pitfalls that cost quarters.

01

Measure your actual daily ingestion first

Measure your real GB/day across every source you plan to onboard, plus growth. Guess it and you either overcommit or pay overage all year.

02

Decide air gap versus data residency

If data must stay in India, BYO-Snowflake in an India region can satisfy it. A true air gap rules Securonix out. Settle this before features.

03

Model the DPM tiering against your real log mix

Classify a fortnight of real logs into Analytics, Investigation and Basic to get your blended rate, turning the 30-to-70-percent claim into your number.

04

Negotiate the overage rate explicitly

Overage defaults to 120% of your GB/day fee when unspecified. Set the rate in writing and agree terms for breach or migration spikes.

05

Pilot Sam against a measured baseline

Record Tier 1 and Tier 2 handling times before the pilot, and confirm you can audit how analyst-equivalent work is calculated.

06

Run a bake-off on your own detection cases

Test Securonix and one alternative on three past incidents, ideally one insider case, since UEBA is its edge. TechBag quotes in INR with GST.

The licensing cheat-sheet

Metered on GB per day in tiered bands, with commitment plus pay-as-you-go. The number worth reading twice: overage defaults to 120% of your GB/day rate if the order form leaves it blank. The other lever is Data Pipeline Manager — classify your data before you commit to a band. TechBag models both and quotes in INR with GST.

Five pitfalls that cost buyers quarters

1

Assuming BYO means self-hosted

BYO-AWS and BYO-Snowflake move where data lives, not where analytics run; the control plane stays in Securonix’s cloud. Settle residency versus air gap in the first meeting.

2

Leaving the overage rate unspecified

Leave the overage line blank and the 120% default applies, usually in an incident month when ingestion spikes. It is a two-line contract fix most buyers skip and regret.

3

Buying the band before tiering the data

Sizing the band on raw ingestion can mean paying Analytics prices for firewall noise all term. Classify data with DPM before signing; fixing it downward later is hard.

4

Treating Sam's productivity pricing as guaranteed savings

Paying for AI work is novel but not risk transfer: the bill grows as Sam does more. Set a pre-pilot baseline and an auditable definition of analyst-equivalent work.

5

Judging detection quality in week two

UEBA needs several weeks to learn normal behaviour. Judge it in week two and you read an unfinished baseline as weakness, so plan the evaluation window around it.
