Our story

From our founding in 2011, our mission has been simple — help make the world a safer and fairer place. Turning that mission into a reality has been anything but simple. It required building a team of cybersecurity experts committed to creating an all-new way to find unknown threats.

Over the years, we've empowered over one thousand hybrid and multi-cloud enterprises to see and stop advanced attacks before they become breaches. We’ve helped SOC analysts turn the tables on attackers by smartly applying artificial intelligence and machine learning to the problem of finding attack signals. And we're absolutely obsessed with delivering a first-class customer experience.

From the desk of our founder

Before my time at Vectra AI, a customer once told me about a sophisticated nation-state attack, which turned into a major breach, that affected them and several other companies. The customer asserted that the products my company had sold them could have alerted them of a critical attack. The assertion that enough signal to detect this breach was observable, and the advancements that AI and ML technologies were undergoing at the time convinced me to try to help protect organizations from such breaches.

Thus, Vectra AI started in 2011 with the idea that AI and ML could be applied to the problem of finding and stopping sophisticated attacks. To accomplish that goal, we assembled a team of the industry’s most skilled data scientists, security researchers and software engineers to develop an innovative platform that delivers the most accurate attack signal. While we’re proud of our innovation we’ve gained along the way – the 35 security patents, 12 of which are referenced in MITRE D3FEND – our goal has always been to:

Make the world a safer and fairer place.

From day 1, we've been striving to keep people, their data, and their way of life safe.

Build a culture we could be proud of.

Companies come and go, but the legacy of Vectra AI will be one of integrity and compassion.

Leverage AI to its full potential to do good.

Because when you arm human intelligence, great things can happen.

We wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for the partnership with our amazing customers. It's your passion and commitment to making the world safer that keeps us innovating.  I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to partner with you.

Thank you!

Our values

Customers first

For over a decade, we’ve been obsessed with creating what security analysts and SOC leaders have repeatedly told us is most critical: creating the most accurate attack signal. We have teams of security researchers, data scientists and software engineers who are laser focused on perfecting our signal, improving it every day. Our company is committed to providing the best attack signal on the planet, providing an easy-to-use platform and providing white-glove, proactive and responsive service along with shared accountability to make the lives of our customers easier.

Integrity

Integrity is our foundation. It drives every decision we make and every action we take. We believe in doing what is right, even when no one is watching. We prioritize honesty, transparency and fairness, earning your trust every step of the way.

Teamwork

We value teamwork that is focused, efficient and drama-free. We respect and challenge each other to do the best work we can. The collaborative culture we've cultivated means we can accomplish extraordinary feats.

Our customers

SOC analysts get an average of 4,484 alerts a day

Vectra AI exists to stop analysts, leaders and CISOs from getting burned by attackers. But while other vendors flood enterprises with pointless alerts caused by signatures and basic anomaly detection, we expertly employ AI and ML to deliver the most reliable attack signal on the planet.

It's the difference between managing pointless detections and investigating and responding to real attacks. And it's the reason we have over 95% customer retention.

“Our alert volume has been reduced by 90% since Vectra AI’s ML assesses more features and context in the models, which leads to more accurate detections.”

Ever wish threat detection and response could be more simple?

Hybrid and multi-cloud enterprises are drowning in a sea of “more.” More attack surface. More blind spots. More noise.

Vectra AI stops this vicious cycle by providing the only "more" SOC teams actually need—more signal clarity. Attack Signal Intelligence™ provides clarity so analysts can finally focus on what they do best: hunting, investigating and stopping real attacks in real time.
