Vectra AI announced the availability of its Cognito platform, now available for purchase in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace. AWS customers
worldwide can now employ Vectra's suite of solutions through their AWS
Enterprise Discount Plan for seamless procurement at a reduced rate. The
accelerated purchasing process ensures fast time-to-value for customers
leveraging Vectra solutions to gain real-time security, operational and cost
management insights across their hybrid AWS environment.
"Working with vendors who provide the added value of
enabling joint customers to purchase security solutions through the AWS
marketplace is appreciated," said Tera Davis, Managing Director of
Critical Start. "Knowing that our margins are retained, while providing a
procurement vehicle that benefits the customer shows a genuine partnership and
one we trust."
Today's cyberattacks will use any means of entry necessary
to compromise a network. As a result, the time it takes to detect and respond
to an adversary is paramount in thwarting attacks. The Cognito platform
accelerates threat detection, investigation, and response using AI to enrich cloud logs and network metadata.
Once enriched, the data is collected and stored with the right context to
detect, hunt, and investigate known and unknown threats in real-time.
Vectra offers four applications on the Cognito platform to
address these high-priority use cases:
- Cognito Detect provides the fastest most efficient
way to prioritize and stop attacks across cloud, data center,
applications, and workloads, as well as user & IoT devices and
accounts.
- Cognito Detect for Office 365 and Azure AD finds and
stops attacks in enterprise SaaS applications and the Microsoft 365
Ecosystem.
- Cognito Stream sends security-enriched metadata to
data lakes and SIEMs in Zeek-format.
- Cognito Recall is a cloud-based application that
stores and investigates threats in enriched metadata.
Vectra's Cognito platform integrates with AWS virtual
private cloud (VPC) traffic mirroring to monitor all
infrastructure-as-a-service traffic. Cognito also integrates with AWS Security
Hub to publish Vectra detections as findings in Security Hub, enabling security
teams to correlate Vectra attacker detections with other data sources for
faster threat hunting and incident investigations.
"We are committed to enhancing the productivity of our
customers, which means ensuring our industry-leading technology is easily
accessible," said Randy Schirman, Vice President. "Attacks are
becoming more sophisticated by the day, and security teams need to be able to
seamlessly adopt automated technology that eases the burden of threat detection
and response. AWS customers are now able to purchase Vectra's suite of
tried-and-true solutions as a part of their subscription package for quick and
easy deployment."
Vectra's Cognito platform is available today on the AWS
Marketplace. By purchasing Cognito through the Marketplace, customers can
prepay for Vectra solutions through their regular AWS bill once they subscribe,
resulting in a consolidated, easy to process bill.
