Optiv and Abnormal AI

Abnormal AI Logo

 

Abnormal is the behavioral AI platform that protects enterprises from attacks other security solutions miss. Instead of cataloging known threats, Abnormal builds a behavioral model for every employee and vendor connected to your organization — understanding what normal looks like so it can catch what shouldn't be happening, including never-before-seen attacks. Trusted by over 25% of the Fortune 500, Abnormal consistently detects 2–5x more attacks than legacy email gateways in head-to-head evaluations.

 

Deploy Abnormal in minutes with an API integration for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace with no policy tuning or gateway changes required. Additional protection is available for Slack, Workday, ServiceNow, Zoom, and multiple other cloud applications.

What Optiv and Abnormal AI Can Accomplish Together

 

Abnormal AI’s AI-native Behavioral Platform uses identity and context to baseline normal behavior and detect sophisticated threats—like phishing, business email compromise (BEC), vendor fraud and account takeover—across email and connected applications. Deployed in minutes via API, Abnormal delivers immediate protection without requiring policy tuning or gateway changes.

 

Together, organizations reduce successful attacks, eliminate manual security tasks and streamline operations. Customers realize an average 278% ROI and save 475+ hours per week through automation of phishing triage, response and reporting.

Optiv enhances this with advisory, integration and managed services that embed Abnormal into a broader, risk-aligned security strategy. By integrating with SIEM, SOAR and XDR platforms, Optiv helps operationalize automated detection and response, improving visibility and accelerating remediation.

 

 

Optiv enables faster adoption and greater impact by aligning to Zero Trust initiatives, integrating across the security stack and providing 24/7 operational support.
