Unified AI-driven platform promises real-time defense, stronger governance, and faster response to modern threats
Databricks, the Data and AI company, has launched Data Intelligence for Cybersecurity, a unified platform designed to help organizations counter increasingly sophisticated, AI-driven threats with greater speed, visibility, and accuracy.
The new offering integrates seamlessly with enterprises’ existing security stacks, unifies fragmented data, and leverages Databricks’ Lakehouse architecture to deliver real-time intelligence. It empowers security teams to harness AI not only to detect risks earlier but also to understand the context of attacks and respond decisively.
A key component of the solution is Agent Bricks, which enables enterprises to build and deploy AI agents for security operations at scale. These agents can analyze massive volumes of data with precision and take governed, automated actions across the entire security workflow.
“With Data Intelligence for Cybersecurity, Databricks is making data and AI every organization’s strongest defense strategy.” – Omar Khawaja, VP Security and Field CISO, Databricks
Databricks highlights that data fragmentation has long forced security teams into risky tradeoffs. Many organizations have struggled to deploy AI effectively because of generic models and siloed data, resulting in slower response times and higher exposure. By unifying the security data foundation, the platform overcomes legacy SIEM limitations and reduces vendor lock-in.
Among early adopters, companies such as Arctic Wolf, Barracuda Networks, Palo Alto Networks, and SAP Enterprise Cloud Services report significant improvements in detection speed, cost reduction, and real-time visibility. For instance, Barracuda achieved a 75% reduction in processing costs and real-time alerting in under five minutes, while Palo Alto Networks accelerated AI-powered threat detection by 3x.
The platform also benefits from a strong partner ecosystem, with integrations from Deloitte, Varonis, Arctic Wolf, Panther, and Accenture Federal, among others. These partnerships extend Databricks’ capabilities and allow enterprises to build unified, AI-driven cybersecurity strategies tailored to their environments.
By converging data intelligence and AI-native pipelines, Databricks is positioning its new platform as a blueprint for the next era of security operations—one where prevention, speed, and governance are the hallmarks of resilience.
