OpenText has introduced OpenText Core Threat Detection and Response, an advanced AI-powered cybersecurity solution designed to enhance threat detection and response capabilities. The solution, which will be generally available with OpenText Cloud Editions 25.2, is built for seamless integration with Microsoft Security tools and will be hosted on Microsoft Azure. It is set to integrate with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Microsoft Entra ID, and Microsoft Security Copilot, enabling real-time threat detection and mitigation.

To further expand its cybersecurity offerings, OpenText has also developed a threat integration studio, allowing customers to connect the solution with various network security tools, enterprise applications, and cybersecurity technologies. This adaptability enhances the platform’s capability to combat evolving cyber threats efficiently.

OpenText Cybersecurity Cloud provides a robust security framework encompassing application and data protection, identity and access management, security operations, and digital forensics. With a global reach, OpenText reports that over 7,500 enterprise customers currently leverage its cybersecurity solutions.

The increasing cost of insider-related cyber incidents underscores the necessity for AI-driven security measures. According to the 2023 Cost of Insider Risks Global Report by Ponemon and Sullivan, insider-related breaches cost organizations an average of USD 16.2 million annually. OpenText asserts that its AI-driven analytics and machine learning capabilities are key to mitigating these risks, enabling organizations to detect internal threats proactively. Additionally, with a growing shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals, automated threat detection is becoming a critical necessity to prevent security breaches from going undetected.

The OpenText Core Threat Detection and Response platform is designed to provide AI-powered threat analysis, anomaly-based rapid detection, and adaptive learning models that evolve alongside an organization’s security requirements. Its seamless integration with Microsoft and other third-party cybersecurity tools ensures that security teams receive AI-generated insights, enhancing their decision-making capabilities.

Beyond security enhancements, the platform aims to improve cost efficiency by proactively identifying and neutralizing threats, reducing financial risks associated with cyber incidents. By integrating with existing security infrastructures, organizations can maximize the effectiveness of their current cybersecurity investments.

Currently, OpenText Core Threat Detection and Response is available to select customers under a limited release. The company has launched an early adopter program, inviting organizations to test the platform ahead of its full-scale rollout. This initiative is expected to provide valuable user feedback, further refining the platform’s capabilities before its broader market launch.
