Vectra AI, the cybersecurity AI leader in protecting modern networks from modern attacks, has unveiled the next generation of its flagship platform. Purpose-built for the AI enterprise, the updated platform delivers preemptive security and proactive defense against AI-powered cyberattacks in always-on, hyper-connected environments spanning on-premises data centers, multi-cloud, identity, SaaS, IoT/OT, edge, and AI infrastructure.

As enterprises become AI enterprises—hyper-connected systems operating at machine speed with non-human identities and AI agents outnumbering people—cyber risk evolves dramatically. Adversaries now weaponize AI to automate attacks, abuse trust, and move laterally faster than traditional controls can respond. Vectra AI's platform redefines cyber resilience by focusing on continuous, behavior-driven visibility and real-time action.
"Modern networks have fundamentally changed the physics of cyber risk," said Hitesh Sheth, CEO of Vectra AI. "They are the nervous system of the AI enterprise, where identities act and data moves at machine speed. Attackers understand this and are exploiting it. With our next-generation platform, Vectra AI is redefining cyber resilience by giving defenders continuous visibility, clear AI-driven signal, and answers at machine speed to stop AI-powered attacks long before they disrupt the business."
The platform introduces three core enhancements aligned with the AI attack lifecycle:
"AI agents are now first-class identities in the enterprise—and increasingly, a powerful tool for attackers," said Snehal Patel, Chief Product Officer at Vectra AI. "Vectra AI uniquely discovers and tracks AI agents across the modern network, enabling preemptive security by reducing exposure before attackers can exploit it, and proactive defense by detecting and stopping AI-powered attacks the moment they start. With AI-assisted investigations and behavior-based hunts delivering answers in seconds, we remove defender latency so attacks are contained before they spread to critical systems and data."
"AI infrastructure no longer behaves like a traditional network," added Marty Roesch, Head of Cloud at Vectra AI. "Traffic is ephemeral, east-west dominates, and the most important activity never crosses a perimeter. To build real resilience in AI environments, security teams need observability that is software-defined and operates at scale without sacrificing fidelity. That is the foundation required to detect and stop AI-driven attacks in real time."
The next-generation platform marks a shift from perimeter-based models to continuous, identity-centric, behavior-driven security tailored for AI-speed environments.
