Understand your subscription
Sekoia is available in several plans that determine which products and features your team can access. This article explains the plan structure, the add-on modules, and how to interpret the information on your Subscriptions page.
Products and plans
Sekoia offers two core products, which are sold and licensed separately.
Sekoia Defend
Sekoia Defend is the XDR product for detection and response operations. It is available in two plans:
| Plan | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Defend Core | Collect, Detect, Investigate, and Automate capabilities. Standard retention and asset limits. |
| Defend Prime | All Defend Core capabilities, plus extended retention, higher asset limits, and priority access to new features. |
The key parameters that vary between plans and contracts include:
- Number of defended assets: the volume of assets covered under the license
- Hot storage: the number of days events are kept in fast-access storage for search and investigation
- Archiving duration: the total retention period for archived event data
Sekoia Intelligence
Sekoia Intelligence is the CTI product for threat knowledge and analysis. It is licensed separately from Defend and can be purchased independently or combined with a Defend plan.
Add-on modules
Add-on modules extend Defend with specialized capabilities. They require an active Defend subscription.
| Module | What it adds |
|---|---|
| Reveal | Asset intelligence: unified inventory, vulnerability context, behavioral signals, attack path visualization |
| Elevate | AI-powered agentic triage: autonomous alert analysis and verdict generation |
Trial subscription
When a new community is created, a trial subscription is automatically made available. The trial allows you to explore the platform without a financial commitment.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Duration | 45 days |
| Plan | Defend Prime |
| Number of assets | Up to 1,000 |
| Hot storage | 7 days |
| Archiving duration | 0 days |
Allocating a trial to a community
In a multi-tenant workspace, administrators can allocate trial subscriptions to managed communities. See the related link at the end of this article for the procedure.
Check your license type and level
Before you configure data sources or activate detection rules, check the license assigned to your community. The license determines the products you can use, the retention period available for investigations, and the volume of data or assets covered by your contract.
Navigate to Settings > Workspace > Subscriptions. Check the following information:
- Product and plan: Defend Core, Defend Prime, or Intelligence.
- Enabled modules: Reveal or Elevate, when included in your subscription.
- Subscription period: Start date, expiration date, and remaining time.
- Asset limit: Number of defended assets covered by the license.
- Hot storage: Number of days event data remains available for fast search and investigation.
- Archiving duration: Total retention period for archived event data.
Access to subscription details
If Subscriptions is not available in your Settings menu, ask your workspace administrator to confirm your license type and limits.
The license limits are operational constraints. Review them before connecting data sources so you can adapt ingestion and retention settings to your contract.
Read the Subscriptions page
The Subscriptions page gives you a centralized view of all active and expired licenses for your communities.
To access the Subscriptions page, navigate to Settings > Workspace > Subscriptions.
For each subscription, you can see:
- The plan type (Defend Core, Defend Prime, or Intelligence)
- The subscription period and expiration date
- The region, number of defended assets, and storage retention values
- The remaining days on the subscription
Expired subscriptions
Communities with no active subscription are flagged with a red indicator in the multi-tenant community list. An expired subscription does not delete your data, but it may limit your access to platform features.
In a multi-tenant workspace, the Subscriptions page shows all managed communities. You can filter the list by trial status, near-expiration, or inactive communities.
Monitor your consumption
Review your usage from the beginning of your subscription, not only when you approach a limit. The Usage page shows the consumption associated with your communities, including analyzed bytes and executed playbook actions.
Navigate to Settings > Usage and select the relevant month. Compare your current consumption with the projected volume and the limits shown on your subscription. See Monitor your usage for the details of each metric and the recommended monitoring routine.
If your consumption approaches the limit, review Investigate overusage, the Optimization rules overview, and Log volume reduction strategies before changing your data collection configuration.
