Exabeam and LogRhythm Complete Merger and Announce New Company Details
In a strategic move set to define the future of the cybersecurity landscape, Exabeam and LogRhythm announced the successful completion of their previously announced merger. The merger combines unparalleled technological innovation with reliable data to create an AI-driven security operations platform that delivers the most efficient and accurate security information and event management (SIEM) and user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) solutions in the industry. 

Moving forward, the company will leverage the best of both organizations to create a best-of-breed cybersecurity vendor relentlessly focused on empowering security analysts, security engineers, and CISOs with the tools, intelligence, and guidance needed to safeguard their organizations against cyberthreats. The company will retain the Exabeam name and refresh the visual brand to represent the merging of two industry leaders and honor the legacy of the long-established LogRhythm brand. 

Exabeam has also unveiled its product roadmap and strategy, highlighting the proven, cloud-native AI-driven Exabeam Security Operations Platform that will serve as the foundation of its future product offerings. On-premises LogRhythm SIEM customers will benefit from the powerful analytics offered through the Exabeam platform to combat sophisticated and credential-based attacks. The company remains committed to quarterly launches to its cloud-native and on-premises SIEM offerings as demonstrated by LogRhythm since July 2022. By integrating AI-driven automation with reliable data, this strategy aims to streamline security operations and accelerate TDIR, empowering security teams to focus on quickly and effectively mitigating complex threats. 

Leadership Team 

The new leadership team, composed of experienced executives from both companies, will drive Exabeam's strategic direction and operational excellence: 
Christopher O'Malley - Chief Executive Officer 
Steve Wilson - Chief Product Officer 
Kevin Kirkwood - Chief Information Security Officer 
Allwyn "Olly" Lobo - Chief Development Officer (Cloud-native SIEM) 
David Rizzo - Chief Development Officer (Self-managed SIEM) 
Barry Capoot - Chief Financial Officer 
Joanne Wong - Chief Marketing Officer 
Matt Sarafian - Chief People Officer 
Chris Cesio - Chief Revenue Officer 
Peter Harteveld - Chief Value Creation Officer 

"We are on the brink of a revolutionary shift in cybersecurity. By merging cutting-edge, AI-driven technology from Exabeam with the unmatched data integrity of LogRhythm, we are setting a new, unparalleled standard for security operations," said O'Malley, CEO of Exabeam. "Together, our combined expertise, innovation velocity, and vision will propel AI-driven cybersecurity solutions to new heights. Unlike the tech conglomerates that have left customers exposed in the critical battle against cyberattacks, our unwavering focus remains on empowering the true heroes of security. "Good enough" is not enough in the mission-critical matter of security operations. Today, we are proud to deliver a best-of-breed SIEM and UEBA experience purposefully and tenaciously focused on customer success." 

"Our team is stacked with expertise from both organizations that will accelerate our ability to deliver customer value. The Exabeam Security Operations Platform offers a comprehensive, foundational solution adaptable to any business - whether leveraging cloud infrastructure, adopting a hybrid model, or staying on-premises," said Wilson, Chief Product Officer of Exabeam. "By augmenting LogRhythm SIEM with Exabeam's New-Scale AI-driven features, including UEBA and Exabeam Copilot, we will offer incredible new value to existing LogRhythm customers. New and existing Exabeam customers alike can look forward to continued innovation as we optimize our product, training, and service synergies. Together, our team will continue to address the ever-advancing threats created by the introduction of AI and empower our customers' security operations teams to be more efficient and effective." 

"We see tremendous opportunity within TDIR, SIEM, and UEBA and believe that together LogRhythm and Exabeam are better positioned to capture this growing market by offering their customers the comprehensive solutions they need to help protect their organizations from ever-evolving cyberthreats," said Chip Virnig, a Partner at Thoma Bravo. "We look forward to Exabeam's continued growth and innovation, powered by the combined company's differentiated AI-driven security operations platform and loyal global customer base."
