BROOMFIELD, CO — April 21, 2026 — Exabeam, a leader in behavioral intelligence for the Agentic Enterprise (where AI agents work alongside humans to autonomously drive business), today announced that it has received the 2026 Google Cloud Partner of the Year Award for Security: Analytics & Operations. Exabeam was recognized for its achievements in the Google Cloud ecosystem, helping customers accelerate security operations by providing behavioral intelligence, AI-powered analytics, and agent-driven workflows that improve detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) for both human and non-human threats, such as service accounts and AI agents. This marks the third year Exabeam has been honored as a Google Cloud partner.
"Google Cloud's Partner Awards celebrate the strategic innovation and tangible outcomes our partners have delivered for customers," said Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem & Channels at Google Cloud. "We are thrilled to recognize Exabeam as a 2026 Google Cloud Partner Award winner and celebrate their role in supporting customer success over the past year."
Steve Wilson, Chief AI & Product Officer at Exabeam, stated, "This award from Google Cloud is a powerful validation of the category Exabeam is defining. As organizations enter the era of the Agentic Enterprise, security teams need behavioral intelligence to understand risk across both humans and digital workers. Together with Google Cloud, Exabeam is delivering Accelerated Security Operations that provide defenders with the clarity, context, and speed needed to stay ahead of threats moving at machine speed."
The synergy between Exabeam and Google Cloud establishes a new standard for modern security operations. For over a decade, Exabeam has been at the forefront of behavior-based intelligence, using User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) to find insider threats. In 2025, Exabeam extended its expertise to AI agents, becoming the first and only vendor to introduce Agent Behavior Analytics (ABA) to detect intent, deviations, and compromises that are difficult for traditional tools to spot. At the Google Security Innovation Forum in September 2025, Exabeam conducted the industry's first live demonstration of insider threat detection regarding AI agents, solidifying its leadership in protecting the new digital workforce.
In April 2025, Exabeam also released its multi-agent AI, Exabeam Nova. Today, more than 1,100 customers worldwide have deployed Exabeam Nova. Integrated throughout the Exabeam New-Scale Security Operations Platform and included at no additional cost, Exabeam Nova speeds up analyst workflows by 5x, reduces investigation time by 50%, and lightens the alert triage workload through agent-powered threat scoring, investigation, and posture guidance. Built on Google Cloud, these innovations have helped security teams transition from reactive alert processing to proactive, quantifiable, and result-oriented security operations.
Exabeam was also honored with the 2025 Google Cloud DORA Award for developer productivity and velocity in August 2025. This was in recognition of reducing lead time for changes by 83%, maintaining a deployment frequency of five times per day, and improving the mean time to recovery from two hours to one hour. All these achievements demonstrate how Exabeam has used Google Cloud to accelerate innovation in both product development and cybersecurity outcomes.
