Centralized TDIR From Exabeam With New Threat Center, Automation Management, and Exabeam Copilot

Today’s security analysts today face the daunting challenge of detecting, investigating, and responding to threats promptly. The staggering volume of alerts and the complexity of modern cyberthreats can overwhelm even the most seasoned professionals. In response, Exabeam has debuted three revolutionary capabilities designed to transform security operations: Threat Center, Automation Management, and Exabeam Copilot.

In this article:

• Streamlining security operations with Threat Center
• Centralizing TDIR
• Reducing analyst workload
• Accelerating investigations with AI and analytics
• Automating workflows and response with Automation Management
• Advancing cybersecurity efficiency

Streamlining security operations with Threat Center

Threat Center is a unified workbench that simplifies analysts’ workflows and alleviates alert fatigue. It streamlines threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) through alert prioritization, automated evidence collection, and timeline creation. Built on the AI-driven Exabeam Security Operations Platform, Threat Center enhances TDIR capabilities with advanced AI and automation, ensuring a consistent view of threats. 

A key feature of Threat Center is its ability to correlate disparate alerts, offering a comprehensive mitigation strategy. Exabeam Copilot, embedded within Threat Center, employs generative AI to provide clear threat explanations and recommend next steps, aiding analysts in their decision-making process.

Centralizing TDIR

Effective TDIR requires analysts to have immediate access to relevant information. Designed by experienced practitioners, Threat Center prioritizes alerts and cases using context-aware risk scoring and displays essential details such as risk score, alert age, observed MITRE ATT&CK^® tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and triggered rules.

The platform organizes related detections chronologically in automated Threat Timelines, enabling analysts to quickly visualize the scope of an investigation. It also summarizes anomalous behaviors through data insight models, facilitating evidence organization and case management from a single interface.

Reducing analyst workload

Threat Center significantly cuts down the number of alerts requiring manual investigation. It groups related entities and events, converting low-fidelity alerts into comprehensive, high-risk threats. Threat Timelines streamline the investigative process by automating evidence collection and analysis, promoting efficiency. Collaboration features, such as case sharing, escalation, note sharing, and integration with third-party tools like Slack or Teams, optimize teamwork by ensuring seamless information exchange and coordination.

Accelerating investigations with AI and analytics

Integrating AI and analytics, Threat Center expedites investigations, enabling focused and consistent investigations across all skill levels. Automated Threat Timelines correlate disparate alerts into a coherent timeline, allowing for a structured start to investigations. Capabilities like impact analysis and natural language processing (NLP) accelerate decision making. Exabeam Copilot provides detailed threat explanations, guiding effective response strategies and promoting clear organizational communication. This innovative AI assistant further aids analysts by answering additional questions, improving response efficiency. 

Automating workflows and response with Automation Management

Automation Management within Threat Center saves time and supports decision making through security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) capabilities, pre-built playbooks, and an intuitive no-code editor. It empowers analysts to streamline SOC workflows, including alert triage, case escalation, and context gathering, fostering rapid threat remediation.

Threat Center equips security operations teams with a comprehensive suite of tools to simplify operations, centralize TDIR, lighten analyst workloads, speed up investigations, and automate workflows and response. With AI and automation at its core, Threat Center increases operational efficiency and effectiveness, enabling teams to do more with less.

Advancing cybersecurity efficiency

The launch of Threat Center, Automation Management, and Exabeam Copilot marks a major leap forward in security operations. These innovations centralize TDIR, simplifying SOC processes and improving efficiency. By integrating AI and automation, Exabeam streamlines workflows, reduces workloads, and expedites investigations, allowing security teams to focus on what matters most: protecting their organizations against evolving cyberthreats. Moving into the future, Exabeam continues to innovate, offering solutions that meet the changing needs of security professionals and helping organizations stay ahead in the battle against cyberthreats.
