About us
Our Mission
We help enterprises unlock the full potential of their security data
Axoflow was founded by veterans of cybersecurity and observability, led by CEO Balázs Scheidler—creator of syslog-ng and a pioneer of industry-wide logging standards—alongside fellow founders of the cloud-native Logging Operator project. After witnessing how traditional SIEMs became prohibitively expensive while failing to improve security, they set out to reimagine how security data is collected, curated, and used—recognizing that data is one of the keys to solving the puzzle.
Our automated data pipeline focuses on data quality, delivering detection-ready insights without having to write another config. By merging deep on-prem logging expertise with modern cloud-native practices, Axoflow empowers teams to drive real cyber outcomes at a fraction of the cost.
