Your SIEM Retirement Plan: 5 Steps to Leave the SIEM Headaches Behind
Retiring your SIEM can cut SIEM costs by at least 40%, and it doesn't have to mean losing visibility. Many teams keep their SIEM, not because it detects best, but because every detection, workflow, and investigation is built around it, so leaving feels like a rip-and-replace project. Every log must be ingested, parsed, and stored before a scheduled search can detect a threat, and costs keep climbing with data volume.
SIEM retirement works like any retirement plan: you get there with steady contributions, not one big withdrawal. This webinar will walk through the SIEM retirement maturity curve, from SIEM-centric to SIEM-Less ready. You'll see how GreyMatter detects threats in transit in under 60 seconds, brings mean time to investigate (MTTI) under 5 minutes, and keeps your data in storage you own.
You'll Learn How to:
Assess your current SIEM dependencies and define your target architecture.
Map which data sources to connect directly and which to route through GreyMatter Transit.
Decide what, if anything, still needs a SIEM, such as IT observability, non-security data other teams rely on, and compliance.
Validate detection coverage and reporting before stopping data feeds to the SIEM.
Plan your cutover around your SIEM renewal to limit overlapping costs.
