Frequently Asked Questions
How does Lightbeam UEBA cut false positives compared to legacy tools?
Lightbeam learns per‑user baselines for reads, writes, deletes, and access frequency, then flags deviations weighted by data sensitivity and accessibility. Alerts arrive enriched with ownership, access‑rights, and identity context so analysts see who was affected and why. From the same console, you can suspend sessions, revoke access, or quarantine files, shrinking investigation time and ending alert ping‑pong.
Read more about UEBAWhich data sources and users does UEBA monitor for insider risk?
UEBA continuously ingests events across SharePoint, SMB, Azure File Share, SaaS apps, and other data sources. It profiles workforce users, service accounts, and external collaborators to build adaptive baselines. When activity veers, like a five‑fold spike in writes or first‑time access to a sensitive folder, the anomaly is flagged with timeline and file‑level detail for drill‑down and response.
Read more about UEBACan Lightbeam automate containment and tie it to actual user rights?
Yes. UEBA is integrated with Access Governance and Playbooks. You can auto‑suspend sessions, revoke permissions, remove group membership, or quarantine files in one click, with all actions immutably logged for auditors. Reviews and attestations live in the same console, so least‑privilege enforcement and incident response reinforce each other.
