›What is Vectra AI?
Vectra AI is an AI-driven security platform for threat detection, response, exposure management, and posture improvement. Its Attack Signal Intelligence analyzes activity across network traffic, cloud infrastructure, identity systems, and SaaS applications to identify active attacks and lateral movement. The platform also supports enforced containment across identity, devices, and network traffic.
