USE CASE
Audit-Ready Security Data, On Demand
Deliver audit evidence in minutes, cut compliance costs, and keep data in-region to meet residency requirements.
Compliance Is a Data Headache
Whether it’s SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, or upcoming SEC rules, the compliance treadmill keeps accelerating.
Security leaders are under pressure and being asked to:
- Prove data access and controls across hybrid environments
- Demonstrate timely investigation and response to threats
- Validate detections and audit trails during reviews
- Control audit and data management costs
Traditional SIEM and log management tools have historically been used for compliance. They require storing massive volumes of data. They also require heavy ETL and engineering to duplicate and centralize data leading to ever-increasing costs.
What if you could prove compliance by leaving data at the source?
Meet Query Federated Search.
Query Federated Search: Your Secret Weapon for Compliance and Risk Management
Query Federated Search, powered by the Query Security Data Mesh, helps you meet audit, regulatory, and risk management demands without the cost and complexity of data centralization.
Search across live or historical data from any source
Connect directly to SIEMs, cloud storage, SaaS apps, data lakes, and more without duplicating or relocating data.
Instant evidence for audits
Produce audit-ready evidence by pulling proof from disparate sources with federated queries that deliver clear, normalized results.
Control access, enforce least privilege
The Query Security Data Mesh ensures you search data where it lives, with no persistent data exposure or replication across regions.
Reduce SIEM and storage costs
Limit ingestion to only what’s needed. Keep historical and compliance-critical data in cost effective storage services like Amazon S3, data lakes, or even at the original source.
Compliance Workflows in Action
SOC 2 Audit Trail Validation
Auditor requests evidence that anomalous logins are detected, investigated, and documented
Analyst runs one query across Entra ID, CrowdStrike, AWS CloudTrail, Splunk and Jira
Evidence is normalized, compiled, and instantly available
No data is moved, no delay in audit response
GDPR Access Log Review
Auditor requests evidence that all privileged access to systems containing personal data is logged and regularly reviewed over the last 90 days
Analyst uses Query to run a federated search across cloud IAM logs (Entra ID, AWS CloudTrail, GCP IAM) and key SaaS applications
Query compiles results of all successful and failed privileged access events, normalized across sources
Evidence is instantly available to the auditor that privileged access is monitored and reviewed without moving or duplicating data

Cut Compliance Costs
Reduce duplication, egress, and licensing fees.
Simplify Operations
Stop building brittle pipelines for audit use cases.
Increase Agility
Answer auditor or regulator questions in minutes, not days.
Close Compliance Gaps
Eliminate blind spots across fragmented systems.
