CHALLENGE

Trusted access masks malicious activity

Insiders blend into normal workflows until damage occurs.

Legitimate credentials bypass prevention controls

Employees and admins operate with approved access, making harmful actions look like routine business activity.

Cloud data is easy to steal

M365 and SaaS make discovery, staging, and exfiltration fast and often with minimal native visibility.

Gaps in existing security tools

DLP, EDR, and SIEM have blind spots when employees have legitimate access. They see fragments, but rarely connect multi- step insider behavior into a single case.

Insiders are driven by
financial incentives

Motivated by financial gain, insiders can leverage legitimate access to steal sensitive data in seconds.

APPROACH

Reveal intent through behavioral context

Vectra AI correlates identity, cloud, and network behaviors to stop insider threat.

Baseline normal identity behavior

Learns typical access patterns, so deviations signal potential intent, not just generic “anomalies.”

Detect high-risk insider indicators

Surface behaviors like unusual downloads, external forwarding rules, privilege abuse, and suspicious data staging.

Correlate steps into narratives

Connect separate actions across systems into one prioritized incident so teams can act with confidence.

Prioritize before exfiltration occurs

Elevate the cases that matter most, enabling rapid investigation and containment before impact.

Accelerate investigation

Reveal who accessed what data, where it moved, and how the behavior deviates from normal patterns so analysts can quickly validate risk.

Threat detection, investigation, and response

Vectra’s behavioral AI detects suspicious insider behaviors, such as abnormal data access, unusual downloads, and privilege misuse across SaaS, identity, and network activity.

Learn More

Threat exposure & posture improvement

Security teams gain clear insight into insider risk trends, enabling stronger governance, faster response, and reduced data loss exposure.

Learn More

Prevent data loss and IP theft

Stop insiders before damage and reduce response time dramatically.

Earlier detection of malicious intent

Identify staging and escalation days or weeks before exfiltration, reducing downstream damage and cost.

Faster, high- confidence investigations

Give analysts clear timelines and context to distinguish misuse from benign activity without the need for manual correlation.

Reduced blast radius and exposure

Contain insider activity quickly to protect sensitive files, regulated data, and critical business systems.

Stronger privileged access oversight

Detect risk admin behavior and policy violations to prevent abuse of elevated access and persistent backdoor access.

FAQs

How the Vectra AI Platform extends your coverage

How does the Vectra AI Platform extend my EDR?

EDR monitors activity on endpoints, but it can’t see unmanaged devices, network traffic, or identity abuse. Vectra AI adds agentless detection across network, identity, and cloud, then correlates those signals with endpoint alerts to confirm real attacks faster and eliminate blind spots.

What types of attacks can Vectra AI detect that EDR can’t?

The Vectra AI Platform uses AI-driven behavioral detections to find attackers as they compromise unmanaged IoT/OT devices, move laterally between hosts and domain controllers, steal credentials and escalate privileges, and covert C2 channels — even those hidden in encrypted traffic.

Will adding NDR just increase the number of alerts my SOC has to handle?

No. Vectra AI filters out noise at scale, significantly cutting false positives. Instead of sending every anomaly, it delivers a curated feed of high-fidelity detections tied to attacker behaviors. As a result, customers see and stop the most dangerous attacks within 24 hours — 99% faster than the average time it takes to find and contain breaches involving stolen credentials.

Why can’t I just deploy more EDR agents to fix the gaps?

Because not every device supports an agent. IoT, OT, BYOD, and legacy systems often can’t run EDR. Even when agents are deployed, attackers use tampering or evasion techniques to blind them. Vectra AI provides agentless coverage that attackers can’t bypass.

How does Vectra AI detect identity-based attacks?

By monitoring authentication, privilege use, and lateral movement in Active Directory, Kerberos, and cloud identity systems. Vectra AI reveals when credentials are stolen or abused, even if the endpoint looks normal, so SOC teams can stop account takeover early.

Does NDR replace my EDR solution?

No. EDR is essential for protecting managed endpoints. Vectra AI complements EDR by adding visibility into unmanaged devices, network traffic, identity behaviors, and cloud control planes — creating full attack coverage when the two are used together.

How do Vectra AI detections impact SOC workflows?

SOC teams see fewer, higher-quality alerts, faster triage, and more confident incident response. Customers report faster investigations and major efficiency gains because detections are correlated automatically across multiple attack surfaces.
