Elastic named a Leader in SIEM

Elastic has been named a Leader in the recent IDC MarketScape: Worldwide SIEM 2026 Vendor Assessment.

Highlights

• No per-endpoint fees. Elastic's enterprise subscription includes native EDR with no per-endpoint cost.
• Native automation. Elastic Workflows runs natively in Elastic Security with direct access to alerts, cases, and investigation data, removing the need to license a separate SOAR for many SOCs.
• Bring-your-own-LLM. Connect multiple large language models (LLMs) and select among them per workflow, with an LLM performance matrix to guide the choice.
• Scale without rearchitecting. Customers scale log ingestion 5x without rearchitecting on a platform shared with observability use cases to extend value beyond the security team.
• Open detection rules. Rules are developed in public GitHub using Elastic Common Schema and updated on a two-week cadence. Elastic AI Assistant exposes a full reasoning trace covering prompts, tool calls, and responses.
• Feature parity across deployment types. Self-managed, hosted, serverless, or air-gapped, Elastic Security runs the same way everywhere.
