Evaluate and Activate New Tools

Evaluate New Tools With No Engineering Lift

Beacon decouples ingestion and the data layer from the analytics layer, allowing you to route data intelligently to any destination with no integration overhead.

Add Tools on Your Terms

Run vendor POVs without
the plumbing

Modernization shouldn't wait for engineering bandwidth. Route real production data to any vendor's tool and run a meaningful evaluation without pipeline work.

Add new tools to your stack, fast

Activate a new destination in hours, not days. Beacon handles normalization, optimization, and routing end to end, so data arrives ready to use.

Route data on demand during IR

During an incident, route relevant logs to a Jupyter notebook, a search tool, or any investigation surface. No pre-built integrations needed, just point and send.

How Beacon Makes It Work

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

How do I test a new security tool without disrupting my current stack?

With a platform like Beacon, data is collected once and routed intelligently to multiple destinations. You can send a copy of your production data to a new tool while keeping your existing setup untouched, evaluating with real telemetry without risking downtime or detection gaps

Can I run two SIEMs in parallel?

Yes. Beacon routes the same data to multiple destinations simultaneously, each normalized to the schema that tool expects. This makes side-by-side evaluations and phased migrations straightforward.

What destinations does Beacon support?

Beacon supports dozens of destinations including major SIEMs, data lakes, cloud storage solutions, analytics platforms, and custom endpoints. New destinations can be added without changing your existing pipeline.

Can I route data to a tool temporarily during an incident?

Yes. During an investigation, you can use Beacon to route relevant logs to a Jupyter notebook, search tool, or any other surface on demand.

Can I use Beacon to run a vendor POV with real data?

Yes. With Beacon, you can route a live data stream to the vendor's platform and evaluate it with actual production telemetry.

How long does it take to activate a new tool?

Most tools can be activated in hours. Beacon handles normalization, optimization, and routing end to end, so the new tool receives usable data immediately.

Can I compare how two tools handle the same data?

Yes. Route identical data streams to both tools simultaneously and compare detection results, query performance, and analyst experience side by side with the same production telemetry.

Does Beacon support routing to custom or internal tools?

Yes. Beyond major SIEMs and data lakes, Beacon can route to custom endpoints, internal platforms, or any tool that accepts structured data.
