Vectra AI employs [[artificial intelligence]] techniques, including [[Supervised learning|supervised]] (pre-trained), [[Unsupervised learning|unsupervised machine learning]] and [[deep learning]] techniques, to detect and respond to in-progress [[cyberattack]]s in real time. |

The product's algorithms continuously learn the behavioral norms of devices, user accounts, ports and protocols to identify signs of compromise across enterprise infrastructure. [[Threat (computer)|Threats]] are automatically triaged, scored and correlated to compromised hosts, and attack behaviors are correlated across hosts to provide the “narrative” of developing attacks. These threats are prioritized, while alerting and remediation actions are taken with other security technologies.<ref>{{Cite web |title=29 Integrations with Vectra AI |url=https://sourceforge.net/software/product/Vectra-AI/integrations/ |publisher=[[SourceForge]]}}</ref> |
