Exabeam & Recorded Future boost threat response with AI-driven intel

Exabeam and Recorded Future have expanded their strategic technology partnership, bringing together the Exabeam New-Scale Security Operations Platform and the Recorded Future Intelligence Platform.

The integration aims to provide security teams with enhanced intelligence-led operations, intending to improve both the speed and accuracy of threat detection, investigation, and response processes.

Contextual Threat Data

The integration is designed to address a longstanding challenge for security analysts-an overwhelming number of alerts with limited context. By embedding Recorded Future's real-time threat intelligence into Exabeam's platform, security events become enriched with external insights. This is intended to enable automated responses, reducing the time and manual effort involved in investigations.

"For too long, organisations have struggled to optimise their SIEM investment, impacting operational efficiency and resilience. Embedding our real-time intelligence across Exabeam workflows empowers security teams to pinpoint, prioritise, and rapidly remediate threats with full context and confidence. This is a force multiplier for the enterprise," said Vinod Chumber, Vice President, Ecosystems, Recorded Future.

Platform Capabilities

The partnership enhances Exabeam's core products, including its New-Scale SIEM, New-Scale Analytics, and Exabeam Nova. The integration with Recorded Future's Intelligence Graph allows the Exabeam platform to correlate and enrich security incidents automatically.

This process includes adding real-time risk scores, applicable risk rules, evidence, and relevant threat intelligence to each event. These capabilities are intended to make threat detection and investigation more actionable for security teams.

Several features have been highlighted as part of this expanded partnership. Automated threat enrichment provides immediate context to alerts, designed to reduce manual research. Accelerated investigations become possible through enriched timelines and dynamic risk scoring, which can assist analysts in recognising the most severe threats quickly. In addition, prebuilt response playbooks allow for automatic actions, such as blocking harmful IP addresses or disabling compromised accounts, following high-confidence detections.

Operational Efficiency

Security operations teams often face tight deadlines and must respond to threats with precision.

The collaboration between Exabeam and Recorded Future aims to address these demands by integrating intelligence into workflows. The use of agentic AI within the Exabeam platform also supports the transition from threat detection to containment, seeking to reduce the burden on human analysts and increase operational efficiency.

"Security teams need to move faster, and with greater precision. By integrating Recorded Future's intelligence directly into the Exabeam New-Scale Platform, we're delivering real-time context where analysts need it most. We're not just adding more intel to a dashboard, we're turning that intelligence into action with agentic AI. From detection to containment, this is how threat intel should work," said Steve Wilson, Chief AI Officer at Exabeam.

Proactive Security Model

The expanded partnership reflects a shift from a reactive to a proactive approach in threat detection, investigation, and response.

Automating processes such as the correlation and enrichment of security data and response mechanisms is expected to help security teams detect threats earlier and improve their ability to respond to incidents.
