Exabeam has launched a groundbreaking enhancement to its Nova platform, introducing AI-driven peer benchmarking designed to empower CISOs with real-time, comparative insights. The new capability, embedded within the Nova Advisor Agent and Outcomes Navigator, enables security leaders to anonymously assess their security posture against similar organizations by industry, region, and size.
This innovation marks a shift from reactive defense to proactive strategy. By analyzing threat detection telemetry and configuration data, the platform delivers performance scores mapped to MITRE ATT&CK® techniques and real-world use cases. The result: actionable intelligence that helps security teams prioritize resources, justify investments, and align operations with strategic goals.
“We’re not innovating for headlines—we’re solving the hardest challenges security leaders face.”
Chris O’Malley, CEO of Exabeam
“Security teams are done playing defense,” said Steve Wilson, Chief AI and Product Officer at Exabeam. “We’ve turned benchmarking into operational data that drives smarter decisions and faster action.”
The release also introduces business-aware risk scoring, allowing SOC teams to triage threats based on organizational impact. Combined with recent partnerships—Cribl, DataBahn, and expanded integration with Google Cloud—Exabeam strengthens its New-Scale Security Operations Platform with telemetry-rich, future-ready capabilities.
Chris O’Malley, CEO of Exabeam, emphasized the company’s commitment to meaningful innovation: “We’re not innovating for headlines—we’re solving the hardest challenges security leaders face.”
With benchmarking now built into Nova, Exabeam offers a strategic toolset for continuous improvement, enabling security teams to operate with clarity, confidence, and measurable value. As the cybersecurity landscape evolves, Exabeam positions itself as a catalyst for intelligent, data-driven defense.
