AI-powered explainability, automated triage and response workflows provide context for threat containment.
It integrates with SIEM, XDR, SOAR and cloud platforms, including Splunk, CrowdStrike, Microsoft, Elastic and AWS. A Logs API and MCP server provide programmatic access for orchestration and management. Deployment options include physical, software, virtual, cloud and flow-log sensors for on-premises, air-gapped, hybrid and multicloud environments. Cloud-native sensors support AWS, Azure and Google Cloud; software sensors support Linux. Physical and software sensors are built for networks at 100+ Gbps scale. Pricing is on request, with capacity-based licensing.
