NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Launched in April 2025, Exabeam Nova represents a breakthrough in AI-driven security operations as the industry’s first and only multi-agent AI capability where specialized components work together across the entire security operations workflow. Exabeam Nova addresses the persistent challenges facing security teams – alert fatigue, manual triage, and the growing sophistication of AI-enhanced cyberattacks – through autonomous intelligence that operates at machine speed with human-level insight.

Exabeam Nova consists of six purpose-built AI agents, each designed for specific security functions: the Investigation Agent automates case summaries and highlights threat vectors; the Search Agent enables natural language queries to create timelines; the Visualization Agent transforms data into actionable dashboards; the Threat Scoring Agent continuously analyzes behavioral patterns and assigns risk scores; the Analyst Assistant Agent answers questions and reduces tool-switching; and the Advisor Agent provides security leaders with daily reports on compliance, security posture, and MITRE ATT&CK coverage. These agents act as extensions of security operations teams, automating both routine and strategic tasks so analysts can prioritize high-value decisions.

Unlike competitors who bolt on AI as an afterthought, Exabeam Nova is fully integrated into the New-Scale Security Operations Platform and delivered at no additional cost.
The platform applies machine learning and behavioral analytics built on a decade of UEBA expertise to clarify risk prioritization, speed investigations, and reduce false positives. Exabeam Nova counters AI-driven threats by correlating complex attack signals and precisely classifying threats across compromised insiders, malicious insiders, and unknown entities.

Results speak for themselves. Early adopters reported 50% reduction in investigation times, up to 80% increase in analyst productivity, and an average of three hours saved per shift on alert triage. One customer noted that Exabeam Nova “lifts a massive burden off our analysts and gives them back time to focus on what matters most: stopping threats.” The platform ensures data protection with end-to-end encryption and never uses customer data to train AI models, maintaining compliance with industry regulations.

In January 2026, Exabeam extended its AI leadership by becoming the first vendor to deliver Agent Behavior Analytics (ABA), protecting organizations from the emerging risks of AI agent activity. Exabeam Nova sets a new standard for AI-driven security operations that measurably transform security efficiency, accuracy, and resilience against modern threats.
