Managed SecuritySecurity Data Lake
We design and run a governed data lake for security telemetry, hosted in the Kingdom, so you can retain more, hunt across the full history and run detections without SIEM licensing driving your decisions.
01Overview
A security data lake is a central, low-cost store for security telemetry such as endpoint, network, cloud, identity and application logs, kept in a common schema. It lets you retain far more data than a traditional SIEM allows, run detections on the hot data and search the full history for investigations, threat hunting and audits.
Many organisations discard or shorten logs because SIEM pricing is based on ingestion volume. That makes investigations harder: attackers are often inside for weeks, and the evidence is already gone.
A data lake separates storage from analytics. Everything lands once in the lake, while only the data that needs real-time detection goes to expensive tooling. The result is longer retention, lower cost and a single place to search.
02Security data lake
Everything lands once, in a form every tool can use.
Collectors and pipelines bring logs in and map them to a common schema.
Hot data supports real-time detection. Warm and cold tiers keep history cheaply.
Query the full history in one place, across all sources.
Generate evidence for audits and investigations on demand.
03What we deliver
From design to operations.
We size the lake from your log volumes and regulations and choose the platform and tiers that make sense.
What you receive
A design and a business case.
Connectors and pipelines for the sources that matter, including cloud and OT.
What you receive
Clean data from every source.
Storage tiers, encryption and access control, with retention applied by policy.
What you receive
A governed store auditors can accept.
Real-time rules on hot data, batch analytics on history, feeding your SOC.
What you receive
Detection coverage without paying to index everything.
Analysts query across sources and months to scope incidents and hunt threats.
What you receive
Answers about what happened, even weeks later.
Reports and exports for NCA, SAMA, ISO 27001 and internal audits.
What you receive
Audit requests answered in hours.

Most mature teams run a hybrid.
| SIEM only | Data lake only | Hybrid | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Real-time detection | Strong | Possible with extra tooling | Strong on hot data |
| Retention | Short, cost-driven | Long and cheap | Long and cheap |
| Search over history | Slow or limited | Strong | Strong |
| Cost with volume growth | Rises with ingestion | Rises slowly | Controlled |
| Best for | Small estates | Archive and hunting | Most enterprises |
05How we deliver
Value arrives in stages, not at the end.
Phase 1 · Weeks 1 to 3
Sources, volumes, regulations and target architecture.
Phase 2 · Weeks 3 to 8
Stand up the lake and connect priority sources.
Phase 3 · Weeks 8 to 12
Build detections and connect to your SOC or ours.
Phase 4 · Ongoing
Run, tune and expand sources and use cases.

07Saudi Arabia and the GCC
Where logs live, and for how long, are regulatory questions as well as technical ones.
The ECC requires event logs to be collected, protected and reviewed, and your sector regulator may add retention periods. The lake keeps logs for as long as those rules require.
Telemetry can be hosted on Saudi cloud or on your own infrastructure, so it does not leave the Kingdom.
Logs often contain personal data. Access, masking and retention follow PDPL principles.
SAMA-regulated entities benefit from long-term, searchable evidence for incident and audit work.

Alert volumes had outgrown the in-house team, and mean time to respond was too long.
Result: Fewer false positives, faster containment and weekly reporting the security leadership could act on.
SIEM licensing costs forced short retention, and investigations could not look far enough back.
Result: Longer retention at a lower cost, and faster investigations.
The bank needed evidence that its people, processes and detection would hold up against a realistic attacker, in line with SAMA expectations.
Result: Detection gaps were fixed, playbooks were updated and the board received a plain-language report.
