Detection Moves Beyond the Internal Network
Vectra extended network detection to cover cloud and identity activity. That scope reflects how an intrusion can cross environments: a compromised account may be the start of the investigation even when the eventual activity takes place on a network.
Vectra AI Competitive Landscape
Following an Intrusion Across Boundaries
Vectra and Upwind both use behavior to inform security teams. Vectra looks for attack activity across networks and identities, while Upwind starts with runtime telemetry from cloud workloads. The preferred view depends on where the investigation is likely to begin.
