Cribl Detect

A new way to SIEM. Turn telemetry into defense, investigate and hunt across your full estate with AI, and retain full-fidelity data economically.

In a nutshell

Full coverage without the full ingest bill.

Legacy SIEMs force you to centralize data in proprietary storage before detection and investigation. As volumes outpace budgets, you either overspend or go blind.

With Cribl Detect, posture management finds and fixes coverage gaps. Streaming detections fire in real time; correlations catch slow-burn threats. Federated search hunts wherever data lives. With the broader Cribl platform, tiered routing sends high-value data to fast analytics, the rest to cheap storage.

Benefits

Eliminate blind spots, speed up investigations.

Icon-Signal.svg

Get signal before storage

In-stream detections enable analysis directly in the pipeline, before data is ingested, indexed and stored.

COST CUTTING.svg

Cut wasteful SIEM costs

Stop paying premiums for every log. Unlock signal-rich data for detection and response, keep the rest in low-cost storage.

PUZZLE.svg

Close coverage gaps

Posture management shows where key threats lack detections, what telemetry is missing, and which rules are broken.

Accelerate investigations

Federated search reasons across your full estate–without forced centralization. AI copilot gets you answers for faster containment.

ROCKET.svg

Modernize at your pace

Run Cribl Detect alongside your existing stack. Onboard what you need, when you need it.

Open at every layer

Bring–or keep–your own storage. OCSF and KQL for portable data and queries, ITSM and SOAR integrations for response workflows.

Features

Why Cribl Detect?

Detect where the data flows

Security value starts in-stream.

  • Signals before storage: streaming detections create real-time signals for fast response.

  • Correlations: chain detections to surface slow-burn attack chains isolated signals would miss.

  • Rule templates: 8,000+ pre-built detections for a wide range of use cases to quickly expand coverage.

  • Detection Lab: intuitive AI copilot UX to build, validate, and tune rules. 

  • Scale: queries run reliably across high volumes, so signals won’t drop.

Posture management shows what you're missing

Treat detection as a strategic program, not an ad hoc tactic.

  • MITRE mapping: see which ATT&CK techniques have coverage, and where you’re missing telemetry or detections.

  • Coverage expansion: get insights on where to fill gaps with new detections, scoped to your priority APTs. 

  • Fixes for broken, noisy rules: uncover issues with configurations, schemas, or detection logic.

From signal to containment

AI-Powered investigation, easy response integration.

  • One search across any store: federation queries data across Cribl, other storage, or other SIEMs.

  • Natural language investigation: drive investigations using AI copilot, without needing in-depth query expertise.

  • Automated triage: AI alert analysis cuts through the noise and surfaces only genuine threats.

  • Your workflows: integrations with existing tools: notifications, ITSM and SOAR.

Your data, your architecture, your choice

Start where your data already lives.

  • Composable: pipeline, schema, response, and investigation are all Cribl-native. None are mandatory.

  • Open standards: OCSF on write, KQL for queries. No proprietary schema.

  • Multi-store: Cribl Lake, other data lakes or object stores. Compatible with other SIEMs.

  • Easy, secure migration: Sigma support and assisted query translation shorten timelines.

Capabilities

Feature highlights

Capabilities_Detect.png
Detect

In-Stream, pre-storage detections

Security analytics are embedded directly in the pipeline to generate real-time signals for immediate alerts and fast response.

Capabilities_Correlate.png
Correlate

Correlation searches

Chain single event-based signals with related findings to piece together slow-burn attacks and advanced persistent threats that isolated detections miss.

Capabilities_Assess.png
Assess

Coverage and posture management

ATT&CK maps, rule health, telemetry drift, and prioritized recommendations show where coverage is weak and what telemetry is missing.

Capabilities_Respond.png
Respond

Alerting, triage, and response

Related signals group into one alert view, enriched with threat intel and internal context. Push it to the ticketing, notification, and SOAR tools you already use.

Capabilities_Investigate.png
Investigate

AI-powered Federated Search

Query telemetry wherever it lives—Cribl, other data lakes and object storage or other SIEMs—no rehydration. Collaborative Notebooks save the whole investigation flow in one place.

Capabilities_Enrich.png
Enrich

Threat intelligence and enrichment

Feeds enrich alerts with context for fast response. Threat Intel integrates emerging CVEs and APT behaviors, while internal context ties findings back to users, endpoints, and systems.

Differentiators

Key differentiators of Cribl Detect

DIRECTIONAL.SIGN.svg

Open

Run security analytics your way.
No vendor-specific schema, no data trapped behind one query language. Built on OCSF and KQL, Cribl Detect integrates with the infrastructure you have. No forced replacement, no vendor lock-in.

ROCKET.svg

Early

Detection doesn't wait for storage.
Detection logic runs in the pipeline. Security signals are generated as soon as telemetry is in motion, even if the data is ultimately routed and stored elsewhere.

search-icon.svg

Continuous

Detection as a program, not a deployment.
Posture management shows where threats lack coverage, which rules have broken, and what to prioritize next, so detections remain resilient as your environment changes and adversaries adapt.

FINANCIALS_02.svg

Economical

Security data shouldn't cost more than it's worth.
Retention economics are separated from analytics economics, so full-fidelity telemetry lives in open, low-cost storage and stays available long after the event.

ARCHITECTURE.svg

Connected

Context, not tool-switching.
AI reasons across telemetry, detections, and context from your full security estate. Automated triage clears the noise so analysts work on what's real.
