About Snare
Snare is a log management and SIEM platform that provides forensic-grade log collection, centralized management, and secure log forwarding. It is designed to reduce SIEM costs, meet compliance mandates, and provide visibility into security data.
Snare, from Prophecy International, is an enterprise-grade log management platform focused on forensic-level data collection, SIEM cost optimization, and compliance. The suite includes lightweight agents for over 200 OS types, a centralized management server (Snare Central), and a log forwarding engine (Snare Reflector). Its core strength lies in capturing detailed logs at the source, filtering them to reduce volume, and securely routing them to various destinations, including major SIEMs like Splunk and Sentinel. This helps organizations reduce data ingestion costs significantly while maintaining deep security visibility. The platform also features 'AskSnare', an AI assistant for log analysis. Pricing is not public and requires a quote, but a 30-day free trial is available. Support is offered through a customer portal, knowledge base, and contact form. Snare is well-suited for large enterprises, government agencies, and MSSPs needing to manage complex logging environments and meet stringent compliance mandates.
