Inbox rules are supposed to make work easier. After account takeover, they can also help attackers stay quiet.

Vectra AI MDR research found that attackers tend to create their own mailbox rules rather than rewrite a user’s existing ones, using them to forward, move, or delete messages.

Dr. Stephan Hoehl explains what SOC teams should watch and how analyst decisions can make detection sharper.

AI agents are only as good as the signal they reason from.

As attacks move at AI speed, security teams need more than faster automation. They need trusted Attack Signal Intelligence across network, identity, cloud, and SaaS.

Our new ebook explores three paths to the agentic SOC with the Vectra AI Pro Platform:

🔹 Build your own
🔹 Add agentic workflows
🔹 Operationalize with Vectra AI experts

Vectra AI is now FedRAMP High Authorized.

This milestone enables U.S. federal agencies to deploy AI-native security and observability designed for high-impact cloud environments.

Nicole Drake, David Meltzer, and Rob Quigley explain how Vectra AI helps agencies correlate attack signals across network, identity, cloud, SaaS, OT, and AI infrastructure to act before cyber threats become mission impact.

What happens when machines do most of the SOC work and humans shift to oversight?

On the Hunt Club Podcast, Vectra AI CTO Oliver Tavakoli joins Mark Wojtasiak to unpack the emerging agentic SOC, from automation and autonomy to guardrails, investigation costs, risk tolerance, and where humans still need to stay in the loop.

They also explore a bigger question: should AI simply improve today’s SOC workflows, or fundamentally change how investigations begin?

AI-powered attacks are changing how security teams need to think about exposure management.

In this product briefing, Vectra AI’s John Mancini and Zoey Chu break down why defenders need to look beyond endless CVE backlogs and focus on the exposures that create real attack paths.

See how Vectra AI helps teams continuously identify and prioritize risky exposures across managed and unmanaged assets, so security teams can focus remediation where it matters most.

The SOC was built around human decision loops. That model is breaking.

In Cybersecurity Insiders, Vectra AI’s Oliver Tavakoli explains why AI-driven SOC automation must move beyond alert triage and reason across chains of signals.

For defenders, the challenge is not just moving faster. It is knowing which risks are worth acting on, when evidence is incomplete and time is running out.

Can the future SOC make better decisions before attackers reach their goal?
