✦ Executive Abstract
Monolithic multi-tenant SaaS SIEM solutions expose defense assets and regulated enterprises to cloud egress latency, foreign jurisdiction sub-processors, and unpredictable query costs. This dossier details how C.I.T.A.D.E.L. establishes sovereign single-pane command over Microsoft Azure GCC High combined with local encrypted SQLite telemetry rings, providing high-throughput streaming and sub-second threat correlation.
1. Fragility of Legacy Centralized SIEM Monopolies
Centralized cloud SIEM systems require routing sensitive defense telemetry through multiple public ingress gateways. In contrast, Aetherion isolates telemetry streams inside local host boundaries and dedicated GCC High sovereign tenants, guaranteeing zero public IP exposure.
