SentinelOne announces Purple AI for enhanced cybersecurity efficiency
Wed, 10th Apr 2024

SentinelOne has announced the roll-out of Purple AI, a pioneering AI-enabled security analyst. The innovative platform facilitates the conversion of natural language into structured queries and automatically analyses native and partner data.

The advanced platform further enhances productivity by offering intelligently summarised results and proposes subsequent queries in natural language. It also records investigations in collaborative notebooks to streamline analyst operations, thereby promoting efficiency.

Purple AI is a significant upgrade in the cybersecurity landscape. It makes threat hunts, investigations, and responses faster and simpler, empowering security teams to deliver enhanced defence, savings, and efficiency.

Offering insights into the necessity of such an advancement in cybersecurity, Ric Smith, Chief Product and Technology Officer at SentinelOne, stated, "The average enterprise security team receives north of 1,000 alerts per day that require investigation. They are overworked and understaffed and in dire need of help to keep pace. With Purple AI, SentinelOne is delivering the industry's most advanced GenAI security technology."

Purple AI, by SentinelOne, is a groundbreaking development that assists in the early detection of threats, prompt response, and staying ahead of potential security breaches in an efficient, scalable manner.

Those who have integrated Purple AI into their security operations have claimed to complete threat hunts 805 faster than before. Richard Bailey, SVP IT, PruittHealth Connect Inc., noted, "The security insights provided by Purple AI have surpassed anything PruittHealth had before. Purple AI assists in identifying weaknesses and vulnerabilities, thus bolstering PruittHealth’s overall security. Additionally, it enhances accuracy and reduces human error in data queries, allowing more time for other tasks."

Purple AI is packed with features far surpassing those of a conventional security chatbot or console search box. It facilitates complex query simplification and streamlines investigations using natural language translations, and it allows analysts to have a normalised view of native and partner data. The platform also aids in the discovery and mitigation of hidden risks using pre-populated Purple AI Threat Hunting Quick Starts for single-click investigations.

Furthermore, Purple AI dramatically reduces the mean time to respond and investigation time through suggested next queries and intelligent summarised results in natural language. The platform also augments collaborative efforts with shared, exportable investigation notebooks and auto-generated emails.

Through the power of Purple AI, security teams can save time, increase visibility, and optimise resources. Diverse industries with enterprises of all sizes are leveraging its potential to streamline and supercharge their security operations and bolster their defences.

John McLeod, the Chief Information Security Officer at NOV Inc., affirmed, "Purple AI really increases the efficiency of our team that is focused on log management and SIEM use cases. The technology allows them to quickly query data and use suggested next queries and intelligent summaries to get the answers they need in a fraction of the time, reducing our mean time to respond."

Purple AI is accessible today in all global regions.
