Exabeam has teamed up with SecureAuth + Core Security to secure enterprise identities against credential-based threats.
Following the deal, Exabeam’s Security Intelligence Platform will be integrated with SecureAuth IdP to provide a ‘seamless security solution’ that uses machine learning to gather all the evidence necessary to quickly investigate and detect identity-based threats.
Exabeam’s Smart Timeline tracks normal and abnormal user behavior such as account switching, remote logins, database logins and administrative asset logins, and assigns a dynamic risk score.
SecureAuth will leverage the risk score to apply authentication rules with adaptive authentication, meaning they can now restrict access to application and data for accounts displaying risky or abnormal behaviour.
The integration provides security teams the ability to gain ‘unified, real-time’ visibility across the organization and identify critical identity threats. Pre-built incident timelines help analysts quickly understand the scope and nature of detected attacks by automating what was previously a manual investigation process.
“The critical need to integrate identity and security is clear. Whether it is a continual risk and trust assessment or Zero Trust model, organizations must put in place a framework that allows for the continual evaluation of risk and trust and then offers the ability to take appropriate actions,” said Robert Block, SVP of Product Strategy at SecureAuth + Core Security. “This relationship and the solution integrations provide the flexibility customers require to substantively elevate identity security – now and in the future.”
Headquartered in San Mateo, California with offices in EMEA and Asia Pacific, Exabeam provides security intelligence and management solutions to help organizations of any size protect their information. The Exabeam Security Intelligence Platform uniquely combines a data lake for unlimited data collection at a predictable price, machine learning for advanced analytics, and automated incident response into an integrated set of products. To date, Exabeam is privately funded by Norwest Venture Partners, Aspect Ventures, Icon Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and investor Shlomo Kramer.
“Credential-based attacks are typically difficult to detect because attackers impersonate legitimate users. To protect against these types of attacks, organizations need to rethink their enterprise security strategy and move to an identity-centric approach based on a Zero Trust model” added Ted Plumis, VP of worldwide channels at Exabeam. “We are excited to partner with SecureAuth + Core Security to deliver a streamlined, orchestrated security solution for customers who need to identify suspicious activity to quickly remediate threats in their environment.”
SecureAuth + Core Security brings together network, endpoint, vulnerability, and identity security to prevent the misuse of credentials by delivering true Identity Security Automation.
