In a move designed to bolster its XDR (extended detection and response) platform, Singularity, to defend against the latest cybersecurity threats, endpoint security vendor SentinelOne plans to acquire IAM (identity and access management) provider Attivo Networks for $616.5 million.
Singularity is an AI-based system that allows for automated response to many types of endpoint-based threats — those that target user devices like laptops and smartphones, rather than a company’s servers directly. Attivo’s focus is on identity-based security, tracking users across different accounts, devices and systems to maintain a clear picture of who’s accessing computing assets at any given time.
