FireEye, Exabeam Form IT Security Threat Mgmt Partnership

Exabeam has joined the FireEye Cyber Security Coalition, a partnership that seeks to utilize threat intelligence through the FireEye Global Threat Management Platform to support customer security environments.

Exabeam said Thursday the collaboration will work to drive cyber threat detection, investigation and response for joint customers.

“Attacks today span networks, endpoints, email and other systems,” said Nir Polak, Exabeam CEO.

He added that the combination of Exabeam’s user and entity behavior analytics tool and FireEye’s cybersecurity platform will work to help customers identify risk across the IT environment.

Exabeam said its UEBA technology utilizes machine learning to establish a baseline of normal behavior, analyze user behavior against the baseline and determine risky behavior.
