The Problem We Solve

Security teams face an impossible choice: pay enterprise SIEM prices ($1M+ annually) or operate blind when breaches occur weeks later. Traditional solutions charge per GB ingested, making comprehensive logging prohibitively expensive.

When a breach is discovered 30 days after it happened, you need that data. But you also need your budget for next year.

Our Approach

Bytefreezer is a security DVR. Record everything to your own S3-compatible storage at commodity prices. Query with AI agents when you need answers. No vendor lock-in, no per-GB pricing games.

Core Principles

BYOBBring Your Own Bucket. Your data lives in your S3-compatible storage. AWS S3, MinIO, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, Wasabi. You control it.
BYOABring Your Own Agent. Use any AI provider: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or local LLMs. Switch anytime. No lock-in.
ParquetStandard format. Query with DuckDB, Trino, ClickHouse, or any tool. Leave bytefreezer anytime, your data stays accessible forever.

Open Source

Bytefreezer is open source under the Elastic License 2.0. Run it yourself, inspect the code, contribute improvements. We believe security tools should be transparent.

Founded by Andrew Yasinsky. Built by security practitioners who got tired of explaining to CFOs why the SIEM bill was higher than the engineering team's salaries.
