Enterprise security teams use Exabeam as a security information and event management (SIEM) platform with user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) to detect insider threats, lateral movement, privilege escalation, credential compromise, and data exfiltration.

September was the month Nightfall's control layer reached inside the model call. Five releases shipped: Claude Inference Hooks, MCP Gateway, expanded endpoint exfiltration controls, personal file classifiers, and PII coverage across 30 countries. Together they close the gap between what security teams can control when a person moves data and what they can control when an AI agent does.

Unlike conversational web chatbots where data movement is limited to manual user prompts, autonomous personal agents operate in cloud virtual machines, run continuous background tasks, and connect directly to enterprise SaaS platforms through OAuth integrations.

Our View from the Front Lines of Technical Assessments Kroll analyzed five years of penetration testing data. Of the trends that emerged, we focus on three in this report: the static application security testing (SAST)/software composition analysis (SCA) plateau, the need for more attention around authentication and authorization, and the security health divergence, which shows that regulation is not a reliable predictor of attack surface health.

A customer tells you they want off VMware. They have seen the headlines, looked at the latest renewal, and decided it is time to evaluate Nutanix, Proxmox, public cloud, or another virtualization platform. The opportunity appears straightforward: help them select an alternative and build the migration plan. But what if leaving VMware isn’t actually the best answer?

Step-up authentication lets organizations add stronger verification when users cross a higher-risk threshold, while keeping everyday access simple.
