Exabeam Nova Named Best-in-Class for Autonomous AI That Transforms Security Operations

BROOMFIELD, Colo., April 21, 2026Exabeam, the leader in behavior intelligence for the agentic enterprise, today announced that it has received the 2026 Google Cloud Partner of the Year Award for Security: Analytics & Operations. Exabeam is being recognized for its achievements in the Google Cloud ecosystem, helping joint customers accelerate security operations with behavior intelligence, AI-powered analytics, and agent-driven workflows that improve detection, investigation, and response across both human and non-human insider threats. This is the third year Exabeam has received this recognition as a Google Cloud partner.

“The Google Cloud Partner Awards honor the strategic innovation and measurable value our partners bring to customers,” said Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem and Channels, Google Cloud. “We are proud to name Exabeam a 2026 Google Cloud Partner Award winner, celebrating their role in driving customer success over the last year.”

“This award from Google Cloud is powerful validation of the category Exabeam is defining,” said Steve Wilson, Chief AI and Product Officer at Exabeam. “As organizations enter the era of the agentic enterprise, security teams need behavior intelligence that helps them understand risk across both human and digital workers. Together with Google Cloud, we’re delivering Accelerated Security Operations that give defenders the clarity, context, and speed to stay ahead of machine-speed threats.”

The momentum between Exabeam and Google Cloud sets a new standard for modern security operations. For more than a decade, Exabeam has pioneered behavior-based intelligence with user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) to uncover insider threats. In 2025, Exabeam became the first and only vendor to extend that expertise to AI agents with the introduction of Agent Behavior Analytics (ABA), which detects intent, drift, and compromise where legacy tools fall short. At the Google Security Innovation Forum in September 2025, Exabeam delivered the industry’s first live demonstration of insider threat detection for AI agents, reinforcing its leadership in securing the new digital workforce.

In April 2025, Exabeam also introduced its multi-agent AI, Exabeam Nova, now adopted by more than 1,100 global customers. Integrated across the Exabeam New-Scale Security Operations Platform and included at no additional charge, Exabeam Nova makes analysts five times faster, reduces investigation times by more than 50%, and eliminates alert triage workload through agent-powered threat scoring, investigation, search, and posture guidance. These innovations, built on Google Cloud, helped move security teams from reactive alert handling to proactive, quantifiable, outcomes-driven security operations.

In August 2025, the company also earned the 2025 Google Cloud DORA Award for Developer Productivity & Velocity after reducing lead time for changes by 83%, sustaining deployment frequency at five times per day and improving mean time to recovery from two hours to one hour. Together, these achievements demonstrate how Exabeam is using Google Cloud to accelerate innovation across both product innovation and cybersecurity outcomes.
