Tenzir is a specialized data pipeline engine tailored for security teams, streamlining the processes of collecting, transforming, enriching, and routing security data throughout its entire lifecycle. It allows users to efficiently aggregate information from multiple sources, convert unstructured data into structured formats, and adjust it as necessary. By optimizing data volume and lowering costs, Tenzir also supports alignment with standardized schemas such as OCSF, ASIM, and ECS. Additionally, it guarantees compliance through features like data anonymization and enhances data by incorporating context from threats, assets, and vulnerabilities. With capabilities for real-time detection, it stores data in an efficient Parquet format within object storage systems. Users are empowered to quickly search for and retrieve essential data, as well as to reactivate dormant data into operational status. The design of Tenzir emphasizes flexibility, enabling deployment as code and seamless integration into pre-existing workflows, ultimately seeking to cut SIEM expenses while providing comprehensive control over data management. This approach not only enhances the effectiveness of security operations but also fosters a more streamlined workflow for teams dealing with complex security data.
