Case Study: Netgear achieves SIEM replacement, faster incident response and predictable cloud data costs with Hunters.ai

Netgear Replaces On-Prem SIEM With Hunters and Snowflake To Accelerate Cloud Strategy

Netgear, a global computer‑networking company, faced growing data volumes across cloud, network, endpoint and mobile and needed a SaaS‑first, cloud‑first security strategy. Their on‑prem SIEM generated noisy, context‑less alerts, high storage and configuration costs, poor data retention, and heavy manual investigation overhead. To address this, Netgear chose Hunters.ai (deploying the Hunters SOC Platform) alongside Snowflake’s data lake to replace their legacy SIEM.

Hunters.ai implemented a centralized SOC that correlates and contextualizes cloud‑scale data in Snowflake, automates “attack stories,” and dynamically scores alerts. As a result Netgear completely replaced their SIEM, achieved faster incident response, reduced alert fatigue, eliminated much manual evidence gathering, improved forensic visibility with an always‑hot data model, increased use‑case coverage, and gained a predictable data cost model — all while minimizing on‑prem management overhead.
