About Axoflow

Axoflow provides a security data layer that gathers, classifies, parses, reduces and routes security data automatically. It sells to security teams, including managed security service providers, and aims to cut data ingestion costs and speed up investigations. The platform shifts tasks like classification and enrichment from the SIEM into the pipeline, so data is cleaned before it reaches paid storage. It also offers in-stream detection through AxoDetect, which is in beta. The company was founded by the creator of syslog-ng and says its technology is used by Fortune 500 firms. It claims reductions in SIEM spending and faster responses to data issues.
