Axoflow Launches AxoDetect to Transform Security Detection

STAMFORD, Conn., Sept. 16, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Axoflow has launched a new product called AxoDetect, which is now in early access. This innovative tool aims to transform the way security detections are handled, making the SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system optional for many organizations.

AxoDetect runs Sigma rules directly in the data pipeline, processing security data before it reaches the SIEM. This approach ensures that detections fire earlier and on cleaner, normalized data, significantly reducing the need for expensive SIEM ingest rates. According to Axoflow, this shift in the detection process can lead to substantial cost savings for companies, with one global industrial company reportedly cutting its SIEM costs by 50% and reducing mean time to resolution by 85%.

The new product offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution for detection engineers. Instead of relying on the SIEM as the primary log management tool, AxoDetect allows for the creation and tuning of Sigma rules within the data pipeline. This setup ensures that alerts travel to the SIEM while full-fidelity logs are stored in AxoLake, a low-cost security data lake that can also be deployed on-premises. This change not only reduces the burden on the SIEM but also enhances the overall SecOps workflow.

Axoflow's CEO and co-founder, Balázs Scheidler, emphasized the importance of moving detection closer to the data layer. "That constraint is gone. Detection belongs in the data layer, on normalized data, before the ingest meter starts."

AxoDetect's capabilities extend beyond just cost savings. By running detection rules in the pipeline, the platform provides visibility into what data is coming in, which detection each source feeds, and where a rule lacks the necessary data. This transparency helps in identifying and addressing gaps in the detection process, leading to more comprehensive and effective security measures.

Axoflow's product is part of its broader vision to create an autonomous security data layer that collects, processes, routes, stores, and manages data. The company claims that this approach can drive 10X faster investigations, 50% lower SIEM spend, and near-zero pipeline maintenance. With the launch of AxoDetect, Axoflow is positioning itself as a leader in transforming the traditional security landscape.

The launch of AxoDetect during Splunk .conf26 highlights the company's commitment to innovation and its ability to address the evolving needs of security professionals. As the platform rolls out, it is expected to offer a more streamlined and cost-effective solution for organizations looking to enhance their security detection capabilities.
