Axoflow at Central Ohio InfoSec Summit 2026

Axoflow is heading to Columbus for the Central Ohio InfoSec Summit, June 8–10, 2026, at the Hilton Columbus Downtown in Columbus, Ohio.

This is not a massive expo-floor event for us. It is a closer, more focused regional security gathering, and that is exactly why we are looking forward to it. The Central Ohio InfoSec Summit brings together practitioners, security leaders, and technology teams who are dealing with real operational constraints every day: growing telemetry, rising SIEM costs, fragile pipelines, and increasing pressure to make security data useful for detection, automation, and AI-driven operations.

The conversation is practical

At large industry summits, the conversation often starts with strategy. At regional events like this, it tends to get practical much faster.

• How much data are we sending to the SIEM?
• Which sources are breaking parsers?
• Why are detection engineers spending time fixing pipelines?
• How do we keep useful telemetry without paying to index everything?
• What data foundation do AI SOC initiatives actually need?

These are the problems Axoflow was built to solve.

Security data pipelines are no longer just a cost-optimization layer. They are becoming part of the operational foundation for detection engineering, security data lakes, and AI-assisted SOC workflows. But the foundation only works if the data is normalized, enriched, routed, and controlled before it reaches the downstream tools.

Why regional security teams care about the data layer

Most teams do not have unlimited budget, unlimited storage, or unlimited engineering time. They should make better decisions about what data to collect, where to send it, what to normalize, and what to keep out of expensive platforms.

That is where an automated security data layer changes the equation.

Instead of manually maintaining brittle parsers and routing logic, teams can move toward a pipeline model where normalization, schema mapping, and data quality are handled before data reaches the SIEM, lake, or analytics layer. That means fewer broken detections, cleaner downstream data, and less time spent on plumbing.

For teams modernizing their SOC architecture, this is not just a backend improvement. It directly affects detection quality, incident response, cost control, and the viability of AI-driven workflows.

Let’s talk in Columbus

Neil Boyd and Laurakate Bayman will be attending the summit from Axoflow.

Neil Boyd – VP of Sales & Co-founder. Neil helped spearhead syslog-ng’s adoption in North America for more than eight years, working on large-scale data projects across enterprise and regulated-industry environments. He works closely with CISOs and security teams on the practical side of security data management: reducing cost, improving control, and building infrastructure that can support modern detection and analytics.

Laurakate Bayman – Director of Sales. With a career spanning enterprise sales and customer success across security markets, Laurakate combines technical understanding with a customer-first approach. From helping drive adoption of syslog-ng to designing success programs for large enterprise and government security teams, she helps teams solve complex data problems and turn security infrastructure projects into measurable outcomes.

Book a meeting

We will be scheduling one-on-one conversations during the summit. If you are attending Central Ohio InfoSec Summit and want to talk about SIEM cost reduction, security data pipelines, detection engineering, or preparing your data layer for AI SOC initiatives, book time with us.
