Exabeam’s Nova AI agent becomes a persistent investigator as LogRhythm gets AI updates
Exabeam's Nova agent moves beyond one-off investigations to persistent multi-step security workflows — a concrete shift from reactive to autonomous SOC.

Why it matters
Security operations is moving from alert-response to autonomous agent-driven investigation.

Key question for practitioners: does persistent autonomy in security reduce alert fatigue or create new failure modes?
