You Shouldn't Have to Choose Between Speed and Depth.

Magellan brings forensic-level investigation — including full-text search — directly into the SOC, in near real time.

The Problem

Detection is fast.
Investigation isn't.

Your SOC can detect threats in minutes. But when it comes to understanding them?

Context is incomplete Evidence is fragmented Confidence is low

So what happens? You escalate to forensic tools.

The Reality

Real investigation still happens
outside the SOC.

To actually investigate incidents, teams rely on tools like Magnet Forensics, EnCase, and traditional DFIR platforms — because they provide what SOC tools don't.

01

Full-text search

Across endpoint data — not just metadata or event logs.

02

Deep artifact-level visibility

File system, registry, memory, browser history — the full picture.

03

Forensic-grade evidence

Chain of custody, defensible findings, boardroom-ready output.

But those tools were built for a different job.

Built for

  • Dead-box investigations
  • Post-mortem analysis
  • Specialist-led workflows

Not built for

  • High-volume alerts
  • Real-time response
  • SOC operations
The Core Insight

Your investigation model
is broken.

You're not lacking tools. You're stuck between two systems that don't work together.

SOC Tools

  • Fast detection
  • Alert-driven workflows
  • Limited endpoint visibility
  • No full-text search across artifacts
→ You can't investigate deeply enough to act with confidence

Forensic Tools (Magnet, EnCase)

  • Full-text search
  • Deep artifact-level analysis
  • Complete visibility
  • Data must be collected first — analysis happens offline
→ You can't move fast enough to respond effectively

What actually happens in your SOC:

Alert fires
Analysts investigate
Hit a visibility wall
Escalate
Rebuild context
Time is lost.

Speed (SOC tools)

But no depth

Depth (Forensic tools)

But no speed

Because modern attacks don't wait for evidence collection, offline processing, or expert availability.

You don't need more alerts.
You need forensic answers — at the moment the alert fires.

The Shift

Magellan eliminates
the tradeoff.

Magellan brings forensic capability into the SOC — without the delays of traditional DFIR workflows.

01

Investigate at detection

At the moment of detection — not hours later after escalation.

02

Full endpoint data instantly

Access and perform full-text search across artifacts in near real time.

03

No escalation required

Analyse evidence at SOC speed. No specialist dependency, no workflow friction.

This isn't lighter forensics.
It's the same investigative depth — delivered in a completely different way.

Direct Comparison

Traditional DFIR vs
Magellan.

Capability Magnet / EnCase Magellan ✦
Full-text search Yes (offline) Yes (near real-time)
Investigation speed Hours–days Minutes
Workflow High-friction Seamless
Users Experts only SOC analysts
Investigation timing After escalation At alert stage
Scale Limited Across all alerts
The Principle

True forensic capability
shouldn't be trapped in
rigid, legacy workflows.

Most incidents don't need a full forensic case, an expert-led investigation, or a slow offline process.

They need: immediate access to the right data.

Outcomes

What teams achieve
with Magellan.

Replace most traditional DFIR workflows

Reduce reliance on Magnet and EnCase

Investigate every alert — not just escalated cases

Get to root cause faster

Scale investigations without adding complexity

Final Positioning

Magellan delivers forensic
answers in minutes, skipping
the heavy indexing,
accelerating the outcome.

Stop escalating. Start investigating.

Get Forensic Depth
at the Speed of the SOC.

Stop choosing between speed and certainty.

Magellan brings deep investigative power directly into your detection workflow, eliminating the delays of traditional DFIR without sacrificing an ounce of detail.
