Cynet Adds AI and Identity Security to Platform
The enhancements address unmanaged AI adoption and identity-based risk for security teams and managed service providers.
Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Cybersecurity
Cynet announced AI Security and Identity Security enhancements to its unified platform, now available in Beta to select customers and partners. The release brings AI usage and identity risk into endpoint, network, email, SaaS and cloud activity context.
Why it matters
Organizations are adopting AI applications and autonomous agents faster than security teams can gain visibility into their use. The enhancements aim to give security teams a way to address that gap within existing workflows.
Cynet reports that its CyAI acts autonomously on 97% of threats and remediates 90% automatically without human intervention, and that its integrated AI SOC has a 1:100,000 analyst-to-endpoint efficiency. The company also cites 100% detection, protection and technique-level coverage across three consecutive MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, though how these figures were measured is not specified.
The players
Cynet
Cynet is a cybersecurity company that offers a unified security platform combining endpoint, network, and managed security operations services.
The details
The enhancements extend Cynet's single-platform, single-console approach to AI and identity security, allowing teams to bring AI usage and identity risk into existing investigation workflows without separate consoles. The release is designed to help security teams and managed service providers address unmanaged AI adoption and identity-based risk.
Timeline
November 3, 2026: Cynet announced the AI Security and Identity Security enhancements.
Last year: 87% of security professionals reported encountering AI-driven cyberattacks.
Under the Hood
The company's claims of 100% coverage rest on three consecutive MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, a widely used benchmark for endpoint detection that tests vendors against documented adversary techniques. The new AI and identity features are positioned as an extension of that detection record into AI-driven and identity-based threats.
Security teams managing AI tools and user identities may gain a single console for monitoring AI usage and identity risk alongside existing endpoint, email and cloud alerts. The release is in Beta, so availability is limited to select customers and partners for now.
The takeaway
As AI tools spread through workplaces, visibility into how they are used and who has access to them is becoming a core part of security operations. Teams evaluating these capabilities should look for independent verification of vendor performance claims.
