# How long does NetSenX keep alert history?

It depends on the plan: the Free plan keeps 30 days of alert history, each higher plan keeps longer, and Enterprise has no time limit; the pricing table shows the exact period for each plan. Alert history matters more than it seems. When an incident is found, investigators and insurers ask when it started, and the answer often lies weeks back; if your history is shorter than the attacker's time inside, the evidence is gone. The audit log, which records who changed what and what was done about each alert, is kept separately with its own default period per plan. Choose the plan with the incident in mind, not only the device count: a company that must report under NIS2 or answer an insurer's questions may need more history than its size suggests. If you cancel a paid plan, the account continues on the Free plan with its retention periods.
