Vectra AI threat detection software is now available in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, an online store offering services for Microsoft’s cloud computing service.

Comprehensive defence

Vectra AI (Vectra) designs AI-driven threat detection and response software that provides Zero Trust capabilities for Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure customers. The company has created custom workbooks in Azure Sentinel to speed incident response across the platform’s tools to enable security and SOC teams to investigate and address threats more efficiently. The new additions to the Azure Marketplace complement existing Vectra offerings.

The built-in Vectra Detect web interface allows analysts to prioritize investigations on critical issues, provides an overview of every account and host that appears suspicious, identifies campaigns involving multiple hosts and can breakdown detections for further investigation by security teams.

The range of benefits for Azure users includes:

  • Automated incidents in Azure Sentinel based on configurable threat and certainty score thresholds from Vectra
  • Forensic analysis to identify and pinpoint the devices, accounts, and attackers involved in any incident
  • Detections highlight impacted workbooks for the immediate attention of SOC teams

Optimized for Azure

“In enterprise situations, where there is often an ecosystem of tools in use at once, Azure Sentinel is uniquely enabled to provide one single interface for multiple tools,” said Randy Schirman, VP of Service Delivery at Vectra AI. “To further enhance the incident response capabilities of Azure Sentinel, Vectra has created custom connectors and workbooks that can be deployed within the platform to provide high-fidelity alerts with context detailed to accelerate time to detect and time to respond.”

“Microsoft Azure Marketplace lets customers worldwide discover, try, and deploy software solutions that are certified and optimized to run on Azure,” said Jake Zborowski, General Manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. “Azure Marketplace helps solutions like Vectra Detect reach more customers and markets.”
