Vectra AI specializes in finding attackers who’ve already gotten past perimeter defenses. Its platform analyzes network metadata using AI to detect command-and-control communications, lateral movement, data exfiltration, and other attacker behaviors in real time.
The Vectra AI Platform covers hybrid cloud environments: on-premises networks, AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365, and identity systems. Its Attack Signal Intelligence engine consolidates thousands of events into prioritized entity-level alerts, showing security teams exactly which hosts and accounts are under active attack.
What makes Vectra different from traditional NDR tools is its focus on attacker behaviors rather than anomalies. The AI models are trained on real attack techniques mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, which reduces false positives compared to pure anomaly detection approaches.
The platform integrates with major SIEM, SOAR, and EDR tools, fitting into existing security workflows rather than replacing them. Vectra serves customers like A.P. Moller-Maersk, Greenhill, and multiple government agencies. The company has processed over 13 million security events and consistently earns top marks in independent NDR evaluations.
