Identity Coverage Areas
Detect hidden credential abuse even when attackers gain legitimate access
Vectra AI detections for identity uncover attackers targeting both human and machine identities.
Active Directory
Detect credential attacks involving zero-day techniques and privileged credential abuse for lateral movement — including Kerberoasting, brute force, protocol abuse, and more.
Microsoft Entra ID
Detect initial access to Microsoft Entra ID credentials and track attackers’ next move, from cloud privilege abuse to new device registrations to backdoor creation.
Microsoft 365
Detect living-off-the-land attacks across M365 including Teams, Exchange, OneDrive, eDiscovery, Power Automate, and SharePoint.

What Makes Our Identity Coverage Different
Cover all identities, from network to cloud and human to machine
Know when attackers log in — and follow every stealthy move they make after. Across all stages of an attack.
High-fidelity Attack Signal
The Vectra AI Platform delivers unparalleled visibility into identity-based threats by monitoring abuse of both human and machine identities, including service principals and cloud principals, as well as machine, application, and instance credentials. Our patented graph-based AI algorithm analyzes the complex interactions between accounts, services, and hosts to precisely detect when attackers abuse legitimate privileges. This advanced approach eliminates the noise of traditional solutions, providing security analysts with high-fidelity attack signals aligned to real TTPs — allowing your team to respond to actual risks instead of weeding out false positives.
Clear Attribution
Unlike traditional security tools that use alphanumeric IDs or IP addresses, the Vectra AI Platform attributes detections and activities to recognizable device names and human or machine account identities. This allows analysts to instantly identify affected accounts and assets — while eliminating time-consuming manual correlations across multiple tools and dashboards. With clear visibility into exactly which users, service principals, or resources are involved in the attack, analysts can respond with precision and confidence.
Unmatched Visibility
With more than 100 AI detections specifically engineered for Microsoft environments, 40 AI detections for AWS environments, and more than 5 million identities monitored daily, the Vectra AI Platform provides unmatched visibility into real attacks. Each detection is enhanced with security-enriched metadata across 6 distinct log types and more than 100 fields. This rich contextual intelligence dramatically accelerates threat hunting and investigations, allowing analysts to quickly understand attack patterns, identify affected systems, and determine appropriate response actions — without the need for time-consuming manual correlation.
Flexible Deployment
The Vectra AI Platform adapts seamlessly to your existing infrastructure with flexible implementation options supporting on-premises, air-gapped, SaaS, and hybrid environments. We prioritize function over flash with an intuitive user interface designed for real-world security operations, enabling analysts of all skill levels to quickly master the platform without extensive training. This approach ensures maximum value — security teams using the Vectra AI Platform are 40% more efficient.

Vectra AI for Identity: Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Vectra AI Platform uniquely effective at detecting identity-based threats?
The Vectra AI Platform continuously analyzes how identities behave across your hybrid environment. Through graph-based AI for identity coverage, the platform correlates human-to-machine identity interactions and surfaces stealthy login detection that traditional tools miss. This includes insight into abnormal identity privilege escalation, anomalous behavior in Active Directory, and service principal misuse in cloud environments.
How does Vectra AI's approach to identity security differ from traditional solutions?
Unlike traditional solutions that rely heavily on rules-based detection, Vectra AI uses behavior-driven AI for identity coverage, analyzing both normal and abnormal behaviors across your identity infrastructure. Our patented graph-based AI algorithm monitors interactions between accounts, services and hosts to detect attacker abuse of privileges. This allows us to detect stealthy login attempts and sophisticated protocol abuse.
Can the Vectra AI Platform detect threats across both Entra ID and on-premises Active Directory?
Yes. Vectra offers hybrid identity threat coverage across Active Directory, Entra ID, M365, Copilot for M365, AWS, and Azure Identities. By correlating signals across human and machine identities across the network and cloud environment, the platform identifies lateral movement, privilege abuse, and anomalies quickly.
What types of identity attacks can the Vectra AI Platform detect in Active Directory environments?
The Vectra AI Platform detects Active Directory protocol abuse, including suspicious NTLM relay attacks, RDP tunneling, DCERPC misuse, Kerberos ticket abuse, and LDAP enumeration. It also highlights behaviors consistent with abnormal identity privilege escalation, anomalous behavior, and credential misuse — even when attackers bypass prevention.
How does the Vectra AI Platform handle machine identities?
Machine identities are a critical blind spot in many organizations. The Vectra AI Platform offers machine identity protection by monitoring how these identities interact with services and systems, and detecting deviations from baseline behavior. Combined with human-to-machine identity correlation, the platform ensures a complete picture of how identities are used and abused.
What is Entra ID threat behavior mapping?
Entra ID threat behavior mapping refers to the Vectra AI Platform’s ability to identify TTPs used by attackers in Entra ID environments—such as service principal misuse, malicious consent grants, and token replay. Vectra AI maps these behaviors using AI-powered identity detection for faster and more accurate response.
How does the Vectra AI Platform detect stealthy or low-and-slow identity attacks?
AI detections in the Vectra AI Platform factor in baseline and attack context to uncover stealthy login detection and low-volume reconnaissance. It starts by building a contextual model of how users and services behave, which enables detection of account takeover signals, abnormal identity privilege escalation and other subtle signs of compromise — even if attackers are operating below traditional alerting thresholds.
Does the Vectra AI Platform integrate with my existing security tools?
Yes, the Vectra AI Platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing security stack, including SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and ITSM. These integrations enhance overall security posture by providing context-rich alerts that can trigger automated responses or feed into your existing security workflows.
