Stored is not the same as usable
Security data has outgrown SOC budgets. Because the SIEM commonly charges by ingest, teams offload the telemetry that is not detection-relevant into cheaper storage to keep SIEM noise and cost down. That move solves one problem and creates another: the offloaded data lands in mixed schemas, across separate tiers, and behind cross-team access requests, so it is hard to use in the moment that matters.
When an investigation needs older data, the team pulls back a wide, coarse range from the archive, pays to bring back far more than it needs, waits for it to land, then searches the raw result by hand. Worse, some of the data they go looking for may have been filtered out to control cost and was never kept at all.
What's inside
- 01Why offloaded data stops being searchableMixed schemas, separate tiers, and access requests turn cheap storage into a dead end during an investigation.
- 02The store, search, resupply modelAn immutable raw copy with OCSF observables on every event, searched in place, with only the matching events resupplied.
- 03Where Data Haven adds valueSecurity investigation, incident response, forensic analysis, and compliance or audit response.
- 04What changes for the teamChase an observable across months of history with no coarse restore and no manual dig, then send the exact events to any destination.
Who it's for: SOC leads, detection engineers, and security data owners weighing what retention actually costs them -- in budget, and in the minutes lost when an investigation needs data that is stored but not reachable.
