Trusted IBM QRadar to Elastic Migration
Yes, migrating IBM QRadar SIEM to Elastic Security is a proven project. Senior engineers assess your custom LSX and QVM data, map it to the Elastic Common Schema (ECS), refactor rules to EQL, and run
The lowest-cost way off IBM QRadar SIEM: our migration tooling automates the repetitive work —you pay senior engineers for judgment, not keystrokes.
How we support IBM QRadar SIEM → Elastic Security after migration
- ✓Senior engineers, fixed scope, predictable budget.
- ✓Save 40-70% on legacy QRadar support renewals.
- ✓24/7 US-based support during the entire move.
- ✓Map custom LSX and QVM data to ECS fast.
- ✓No forced big-bang cutover; migrate on your timeline.
Per-EPS licensing bleed
Your current QRadar licensing is per-EPS (events per second). Any traffic spike or logging bloat triggers surprise audit costs. It's a tax on growth.
Locked into custom QRadar engineering
Corporate directive says standardize on Elasticsearch/Kibana. But your QRadar environment is full of custom Log Source Extensions, QVM workflows, and SDK integrations. You're stuck.
Mid-migration licensing audit risk
You're exploring a move to Elastic Security, but you're terrified of a licensing audit mid-migration. One wrong step and the vendor hits you with a compliance bill while you're already spending on the transition.
IBM QRadar SIEM → Elastic Security migration — your questions answered
Will we lose QRadar support mid-migration?+
Yes. Your existing QRadar vendor support contract remains active until it lapses—no forced cutover. If the renewal lapses during the project, our independent third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy platform (not vendor patches) while we complete the move.
What about our heavily custom Log Source Extensions (LSX)?+
We can handle most heavily custom Log Source Extensions (LSX). Our senior engineers have deep experience mapping proprietary data models into the Elastic Common Schema (ECS). Timeline typically increases by 2-3 weeks per complex LSX.
How do you handle QRadar Vulnerability Manager (QVM) workflows?+
We refactor QVM-specific workflows into equivalent detection rules and dashboards within Elastic Security. Vulnerability scanning data is normalized to the ECS vulnerability fields. Your analysts keep the same operational workflows.
Can you support an air-gapped or sovereign cloud deployment?+
Yes. We can migrate to a self-hosted Elastic cluster in your sovereign cloud or air-gapped environment. Everything is containerized and deployable on your infrastructure with no external dependencies.
Start Your QRadar to Elastic Migration
You protect your Security operations core, avoid a crippling licensing audit, and move to a flexible Elastic stack—all with a single, proven team. The next step is a no-cost TCO and Mapping Assessment. We review your QRadar environment, map it to Elastic, and give you a fixed-scope proposal for the full migration. No pressure. Just a clear path forward.
