How CISOs are cutting SIEM costs while improving forensics

Rising SIEM ingestion costs and compliance requirements are forcing security teams into tough tradeoffs. With 73% of enterprises reporting limited analysis capacity due to cost, many struggle to balance real-time detection with forensic readiness.

Selective retrieval offers a solution by routing high-signal data to active analysis while archiving lower-priority logs. Strategies include:

· Separating storage from processing to cut costs and extend retention
· Using metadata tagging to align security priorities with compliance
· Leveraging data lakes for targeted analysis
