Axoflow Named Finalist in SiliconANGLE's 2026 TechForward Awards for Security Operations & Response

Recognition follows customer results showing security teams can cut SIEM spend in half without losing detection coverage

Stamford, CT, September 3, 2026 - Axoflow, the company behind the autonomous security data layer that controls runaway SIEM costs, today announced it is a finalist in the Security Operations & Response category of the TechForward Awards, which recognize technology purchases that deliver measurable business results.

Axoflow customers are seeing results in production: a global industrial company cut SIEM costs 50% and MTTR 85%; a major U.S. healthcare company cut costs 30% within days; a government agency migrating to Google SecOps cut data volume 80% and infrastructure footprint 85%.

Being named a TechForward finalist validates what our customers already told us: you can cut SIEM spend in half and still get faster answers when something goes wrong. Balázs Scheidler, CEO and co-founder of Axoflow and creator of syslog-ng™.

"Congratulations to this year's finalists," said Dave Vellante, co-founder and co-CEO of SiliconANGLE Media.

"Every company on this list earned its place through customer results including renewal rates, expansion revenue and direct feedback from the individuals using these products daily. Our judges evaluate that evidence when deciding who deserves this recognition."

Axoflow is now moving detection itself into the data layer. In-stream detection, in early access, runs Sigma rules on clean, normalized data before it reaches the SIEM: alerts travel to the SIEM, full-fidelity logs land in a low-cost security data lake, and SIEM total cost of ownership drops.
