Coverage Expansion

Close The Gaps In Your Security Data

Adding and maintaining new sources shouldn't slow your team down. Beacon handles onboarding, monitoring, and optimization so your coverage keeps pace with your environment.

No More Blind Spots In Your Data

Onboard new sources, fast

Add new cloud environments, business applications or security tools in days, not months. No custom connectors or engineering overhead.

Maintain pipelines automatically

Know that every source is delivering the data your SIEM expects. When something drifts or a format changes, Beacon detects it and updates the pipeline.   

Optimize what gets sent

Collect broadly without inflating your SIEM bill. Beacon reduces volume while preserving the fields that matter for detection and investigation.

Stop leaving sources behind.
See Beacon in action

Beacon's security-driven data platform optimizes terabytes of important security logs spanning many sources. Data arrives enriched and normalized, and in the case of bloated VPC flow logs, reduced to 5% of their original size, enabling our security team and AI workflows to act immediately and effectively. We no longer choose between coverage and cost efficiency. We now have both, supported by a responsive team of security data experts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is security data coverage and why does it matter?

Security data coverage refers to how completely your environment is logged: which sources are actively collected, normalized, and available for detection and investigation. Poor coverage means threats can move through unmonitored systems without triggering alerts, and investigations hit dead ends where data should have been.

How do I know if my SIEM is missing critical log sources?

Most teams don't know until something goes wrong: an investigation stalls, a detection doesn't fire, or an audit reveals gaps. A more proactive approach is to map your environment against what should be logged and assign a coverage score. Beacon does this automatically, highlighting what's connected, what's missing, and what's drifting.

How do I prioritize which log sources to onboard first?

Start with sources tied to your highest-risk areas: identity providers, cloud environments, endpoint tools, and anything involved in authentication or privilege escalation. From there, layer in SaaS apps and business tools based on how they factor into your detection rules and compliance requirements. The key is to not let onboarding complexity dictate your priorities. If a source matters, it should be collected.

Are there log sources I can safely leave out of my SIEM?

Every environment is different, but the sources teams tend to skip (SaaS apps, business tools) are often the ones attackers exploit. The real issue is that onboarding has traditionally been too complex and expensive to justify for every source. Tools like Beacon remove that friction, making it practical to collect broadly and optimize what gets sent where.

What types of sources does Beacon support?

Beacon supports cloud environments, SaaS applications, business apps, identity providers, endpoint tools, and network security sources, with 100+ pre-built connectors and more added regularly.

How long does it take to onboard a new source?

Most sources can be onboarded in days using Beacon's pre-built connectors and normalization Recipes, compared to weeks or months with custom-built pipelines.

What happens when a source changes its log format?

Beacon detects format changes and field additions automatically and adjusts the mappings. No manual remapping or engineering intervention is required.

Can I connect sources that aren't in Beacon's connector library?

Yes. Beacon supports custom connectors for proprietary or niche data sources, and new mappings can be generated quickly using Beacon's security research and AI capabilities.

Does Beacon support multiple destinations for the same source?

Yes. You can route the same data stream to multiple destinations (your SIEM, a data lake, long-term storage) each normalized to the schema that destination expects.
