Scanner.dev is a cloud-based security data lake and a streamlined security information and event management (SIEM) platform that allows users to index logs directly into their Amazon S3 storage, thereby enabling the retention of unlimited logs and facilitating full-text searches across vast amounts of data in mere seconds, all without the need for additional ETL processes or schema setups. With its lightweight indexing system, any log format can be made immediately searchable, and it offers rapid search capabilities, ongoing threat detection through customizable detection rules that can be managed as code via GitHub, and seamless alerting with APIs for automation and existing security workflow integration. The platform's streaming detection engine constantly assesses rule queries in nearly real time and is equipped to backtest detection logic using historical data. Furthermore, its API and Model Context Protocol (MCP) not only provide programmatic access but also allow for AI-assisted evaluation of security data, enhancing the overall security analysis process. This robust architecture ensures that organizations can effectively manage and respond to security threats with agility and precision.
