How much does a SIEM cost?

A quick answer to a common question about security information and event management (SIEM).

A security information and event management (SIEM) system costs more than its license. Volume-based pricing pushes teams to drop log sources, and hidden costs include pipeline engineering, query compute, and 30 to 60 minutes of manual investigation per alert. Exaforce reports more than $600K average savings versus traditional security operations center (SOC) stacks.
