Job description

What We're Researching

We are running a paid study on the end-to-end buyer journey for mid-market security operations platforms. Our goal is to accurately map the evaluation, selection, and procurement phases for SIEM and related security tools. This research directly informs how modern security products are positioned and sold to mid-sized organizations.

How It Works

You will join a remote video interview to walk us through a recent security software purchase. During the call, we will ask you to retrace your steps from identifying a problem to vendor selection and final deployment. You will describe the internal stakeholders involved and how you evaluated different SIEM or SecOps solutions. The conversation will be a structured but open dialogue focused on your real-world procurement workflows.

Who This Is For

We are looking for IT and security decision-makers who actively purchase SIEM or SecOps tools for mid-market organizations. We welcome Chief Information Security Officers, Directors of IT Security, SecOps Managers, and Security Architects. You should have recent, hands-on experience guiding a software evaluation cycle from initial research to a signed contract.

What You'll Do

  • Walk us through your end-to-end process for evaluating security software.

  • Detail the specific steps and stakeholders involved in a recent SIEM or SecOps purchase.

  • Describe the challenges you face when comparing different security vendors.

  • Provide feedback on what makes a vendor evaluation successful for your organization.

Who Should Apply
