UEBA
(also user and entity behavior analytics, previously user behavior analytics)
UEBA definition
UEBA is a cybersecurity solution for detecting potential threats based on network anomalies. UEBA tools use AI and machine learning to establish a baseline for user and device behavior on a network, then monitor that network for any suspicious irregularities.
Real UEBA benefits
- Covers multiple angles of attack by monitoring both user and machine behavior
- Detects suspicious behavior early so that you can stop cyberattacks in progress
- Effective against unknown threats since UEBA checks unexpected behavior instead of a list of predefined scenarios (like virus databases)
