Exabeam has announced a new collaboration with Google Cloud. The move is designed to strengthen insider threat detection for security teams using Google Security Operations. As a result, organizations will gain deeper visibility into both human and AI-driven risks.

A New Layer of Behavioral Visibility

Exabeam is known as a leader in Behavior Intelligence for the agentic enterprise. On August 4, 2026, the Broomfield, Colorado-based company confirmed it has extended its behavioral analytics and agent-powered workflow automation to Google Security Operations.

The integration aims to help security teams identify insider threats faster. In addition, it is expected to accelerate detection, investigation, and response workflows. Notably, this happens without moving data or adding operational complexity.

According to Pete Harteveld, CEO of Exabeam, the rise of AI agents is changing how organizations think about risk. He explained that the collaboration with Google Cloud gives enterprises the visibility needed to detect both human and non-human insider threats earlier. Furthermore, he noted that it helps teams respond with confidence across the agentic enterprise.

Why Insider Threat Detection Matters Now

Google Security Operations already gives organizations a cloud-scale foundation. This allows them to centralize and correlate security telemetry in one place. However, achieving deeper insight previously required moving data to separate analytics systems, which added extra steps.

With this new integration, that barrier is removed. Security teams can now apply Exabeam New-Scale Analytics directly within Google Security Operations. Consequently, workflows are streamlined and efficiency is maximized.

Built on a Shared, Secure Foundation

Both the Exabeam New-Scale Security Operations Platform and Google Security Operations run on Google Cloud. Therefore, the integration is seamless by design. Security teams can apply Behavior Intelligence directly to data that already lives in Google Security Operations. This reduces the cost, complexity, and overhead of running a separate analytics environment.

Together, the two platforms combine cloud-scale operations with advanced behavioral analytics. As a result, security teams can identify higher-risk activity sooner. They can also reduce false positives and prioritize investigations across both human and non-human identities. Exabeam’s own validation testing found that organizations accelerated threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) workflows by up to 80%.

Securing the Agentic Enterprise

AI agents are no longer experimental tools. Today, they access systems, invoke tools, execute workflows, and make decisions with growing autonomy. This shift has created a new category of insider risk. Most existing security tools were built only to monitor human behavior. They were never designed to baseline, detect, or investigate machine-speed activity from non-human identities.

Steve Wilson, Chief AI and Product Officer at Exabeam, said that AI agents have effectively become digital workers inside enterprise environments. He added that organizations must now govern both human and non-human identities with equal oversight. According to Wilson, bringing Exabeam Behavior Intelligence into Google Security Operations helps reduce complexity. It also allows teams to prioritize the threats that matter most and respond faster, regardless of where insider risk originates.

Availability and Access

Exabeam New-Scale Analytics forms the foundation of the company’s Behavior Intelligence approach. It unifies behavioral analytics, AI-driven operations, automated workflows, and outcomes-based visibility. When applied directly to Google Security Operations data, it allows teams to analyze behavior across every identity, both human and AI. This enables action before threats escalate. The platform also accelerates operations with agent-powered TDIR, alongside benchmarks and assessments for continuous improvement.

Notably, Exabeam New-Scale Analytics is now available to Google Security Operations customers through Google Cloud Marketplace. Eligible purchases can be applied toward existing Google Cloud spend commitments.

Dai Vu, Managing Director of Marketplace & ISV GTM Programs at Google Cloud, said the Marketplace listing will help customers quickly deploy and manage the solution on Google Cloud’s trusted, global infrastructure. He added that Exabeam can now securely scale and support customers seeking to improve threat detection through advanced behavioral analytics.
