Snare is a powerful solution that optimizes how organizations collect, store, and forward data, particularly when integrated with other platforms like Splunk. Snare improves data management, significantly reducing costs while maintaining full compliance and security visibility.
Snare offers multiple financial benefits for organizations using Splunk and other security information and event management (SIEM) platforms:
Snare helps reduce Splunk ingestion costs by up to 40% without compromising data integrity or volume.
Organizations can lower their indexing costs significantly by filtering only critical data before sending it to Splunk.
Snare reduces storage costs by approximately 85% for organizations that need to store data beyond 90 days, supporting long-term retention without excessive expenses.
Snare achieves this by compressing data down to just 15% of its original size.
Snare minimizes infrastructure requirements by reducing the need for many heavy forwarders, leading to significant cost reductions in hardware and maintenance.
Optimized data handling, lower infrastructure requirements, and centralized management, significantly reduce the overall operational costs of running a SIEM environment.
Security teams can focus on threat analysis rather than SIEM management by eliminating unnecessary storage and ingestion costs.
Snare can help organizations cut their total Splunk costs by approximately 50%.
Snare can save approximately US$1 million over three years for an organization spending US$1.8 million on Splunk.
Snare receives all events from data sources and reduces data volume through ingestion methods without compromising integrity.
Exceptional log compression (up to 85%) makes long-term storage cost-effective.
Snare seamlessly integrates with existing heavy forwarders.
It filters and forwards data to SIEM indexers, reducing the need for multiple heavy forwarders in an environment.
Snare’s Reflector component consists of:
Snare compresses stored data by around 85% or higher, making long-term storage cost-effective while ensuring compliance.
This lets organizations retain more data and meet regulatory requirements without excessive costs.
Snare offers a robust user interface (UI) for searching and managing stored data:
Snare provides lightweight logging agents that can operate alongside or replace existing infrastructure inside SIEM platforms:
The Snare Central component consists of:
Offers a comprehensive search tool with basic and advanced search modes.
Searches can be saved, scheduled, and customized.
Supports reviewing filtered data that has been sent to Splunk.
Stores events for up to seven years for long-term compliance and audit readiness.
Generates detailed reports on all events, including filtered data sent to the SIEM.
Provides visual tools like heatmaps and column charts to illustrate data volumes and compression rates.
