Radiant Logic launches AI tool for identity visibility
Radiant Logic has launched the full suite of its Identity Observability feature for the RadiantOne platform, offering real-time monitoring and risk management capabilities for identity and access management ecosystems.
The latest release from Radiant Logic aims to provide organisations with enhanced visibility into their identity management systems and processes, which can help identify, prioritise, and address security risks before they are exploited.
The RadiantOne platform now incorporates features such as continuous real-time discovery and observability across identity systems, a unified graph-based model of identity data from sources including Active Directory, LDAP, on-premise applications, Entra Identity, and SaaS platforms, and dynamic risk scoring using heuristics and pattern recognition.
The platform also includes an AI Data Assistant (AIDA) that analyses intricate identity relationships, recommends corrective measures, and facilitates collaboration between line managers and resource owners to resolve identity issues. Additional features include dashboards that provide real-time monitoring of identity hygiene, comprehensive reporting, and maturity assessments designed to support policy enforcement and compliance requirements.
According to Radiant Logic, the platform is designed to fit into existing enterprise environments as a SaaS or self-managed solution, supporting security initiatives such as Identity and Access Management (IAM), Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), and Zero Trust models.
Dr. John Pritchard, Chief Executive Officer at Radiant Logic, commented on the release, "Identity sprawl, hybrid complexity and unmanaged access create blind spots that leave organisations vulnerable to cyber threats. With the RadiantOne platform, we're illuminating every human and non-human identity across the environment—giving security and IAM teams complete visibility into who has access to what, whether it's legitimate and how to mitigate risks, before attackers find the gaps."
The platform's enhancements are aligned with guidance from research and advisory firms' recommendations, such as those from Gartner. In its 2025 Guidance for Comprehensive IAM Architecture Strategy, Gartner recommends that organisations "Invest in a centralised identity and access data platform that integrates discovery tools across all IAM layers to aggregate, correlate and reconcile identity and access data. Implement emerging artificial intelligence (AI)-driven identity and access intelligence solutions to enhance observability and automation to quickly remedy vulnerabilities or facilitate a response to identity threats."
Industry stakeholders outside Radiant Logic have also commented on the significance of providing robust visibility across identity data. John Horn, Head of the Cybersecurity Practice at Datos Insights, said, "Security defences at many firms operate with incomplete views of identity data and risk across their organisation. A robust identity fabric, centred upon rich, AI-enabled identity visibility for every aspect of the business, is the new operational foundation."
"Radiant Logic's Identity Observability is an exciting capability that enables enterprise-wide views of identity data and risk, combined with automated resolutions to many common security problems. As we enter the age of Agentic AI and greater cyber risk, powerful identity observability and remediation will become central capabilities for the business."
Early adopters of RadiantOne's new features have reported benefits in managing identity vulnerabilities and improving oversight. A Head of IAM in the insurance sector stated, "It's truly one of the few solutions that delivers so many valuable features right out of the box. This product's real-time data visibility and intuitive interface make it an outstanding tool for monitoring identity vulnerabilities and quickly understanding the health of our company's access management."
A Head of Cybersecurity in the transportation industry shared a similar sentiment, saying, "With real-time data visibility and centralised reporting, this tool makes monitoring identity and access management effortless huge improvement over our previous solutions."
The RadiantOne platform's combination of real-time monitoring, unified visualisation, and AI-driven remediation is designed to support organisations in addressing the increasing complexities and threats related to identity and access management across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Vectra AI named leader in 2025 Gartner report for NDR sector
Vectra AI has been recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Network Detection and Response (NDR). The Gartner Magic Quadrant is a research methodology and graphical representation that evaluates technology vendors within a specific market, in this instance the emerging field of NDR. Vectra AI was positioned highest for Ability to Execute and furthest for Completeness of Vision in this latest report, marking a significant recognition within the cybersecurity sector. The distinction comes as cybersecurity concerns remain prominent for organisations in Australia, with data from PWC indicating that 67% of Australian organisations have identified cyber risk as their top concern in the coming year. Other issues, including inflation, economic volatility, and geopolitical factors, were ranked as lesser priorities. In response to these concerns, half of the organisations surveyed plan to increase their cybersecurity budgets by at least 6% in 2025. Vectra AI's platform is designed to defend hybrid environments against identity and network-based attacks. According to the company, its AI agents continuously triage, correlate, and prioritise genuine threats in real time, an approach intended to accelerate response and reduce alert fatigue for security professionals. The platform provides coverage across cloud infrastructure, data centres, remote workforces, and operational technology domains, supporting security teams in their efforts to mature their security operations. Hitesh Sheth, Founder and CEO of Vectra AI, commented on Gartner's decision to initiate a Magic Quadrant for NDR. "Gartner's decision to publish a Magic Quadrant for NDR reflects just how essential this market has become in modern cyber defence," said Sheth. He added, "Being recognised as a Leader in this inaugural report reinforces Vectra AI's position at the forefront of this critical space. As organisations grapple with growing complexity, identity-based attacks, and AI-driven threats, the Vectra AI Platform delivers what modern defenders need – coverage that reduces exposure, clarity that cuts through the noise, and control to act with speed and confidence." Vectra AI is also the only vendor in the report to have been named both a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for NDR and a Customer Choice Winner in the 2024 Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer for NDR. According to Gartner Peer Insights, as of January 2024, Vectra AI holds a 4.8 out of 5 rating from 96 customer reviews, with 96% indicating they would recommend the platform. This customer feedback has contributed to its positioning in the latest Magic Quadrant report. The increasing complexity of cybersecurity threats, including the speed at which attackers can move laterally across identity, cloud, and network layers, has heightened demand for integrated security solutions. Sector analysts and Vectra AI alike have noted that traditional, siloed security tools can leave organisations vulnerable, driving the need for unified visibility and AI-driven detection capabilities to respond rapidly to threats. The NDR market has grown as organisations seek to supplement existing security strategies with solutions capable of offering greater detection accuracy and more timely responses. Vectra AI's platform aims to provide security teams with the means to detect, hunt, investigate, and respond to attacks spanning the full threat landscape. The company has been acknowledged for its commitment to customer satisfaction, with product performance and support frequently highlighted in customer reviews. Vectra AI maintains a focus on ongoing development to keep pace with the continuously evolving tactics used by threat actors targeting modern networks. The Gartner report recognises vendors that demonstrate both the ability to execute on their strategy and the completeness of their vision in the NDR market. Vectra AI's dual accolades from both analyst and customer perspectives come as cyber defence continues to be prioritised by organisations concerned about the shifting digital threat landscape.

dbt Labs unveils AI tools to boost data autonomy & governance
dbt Labs has released a suite of AI-powered features aimed at providing data analysts with greater autonomy without compromising data governance. The newly launched capabilities include dbt Canvas, a visual drag-and-drop model development tool; dbt Insights, an AI-assisted query environment; and an enhanced dbt Catalog for data asset discovery. These features are designed to support analysts with varying technical skills, offering both natural language and visual interfaces within a version-controlled setting managed by dbt workflows. The announcement comes as many organisations grapple with the balance between data self-service and the need for strong governance, a concern highlighted by a recent Gartner prediction stating, "by 2027, 60% of organisations will fail to realise the full value of their AI use cases due to fragmented data governance frameworks." Gartner identifies the proliferation of ungoverned data workflows among analysts as a driver for compliance risks, increased operational costs, and compromised data quality. Tristan Handy, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of dbt Labs, commented on the issue, saying, "Data teams today face a fundamental tension – analysts need speed and independence, while organisations require strong governance and security. Our new AI-powered solutions break down these traditional barriers for data analysts across any skill level and collaborate with developers in the same platform, which will have a significant, positive impact throughout the business." At the centre of the launch is dbt Canvas, which provides users who prefer drag-and-drop interfaces the ability to model and edit data. Integrated with dbt Copilot, it leverages natural language processing to help teams with limited SQL experience construct data models efficiently. The tool preserves organisational data governance and quality standards while promoting team collaboration and productivity. dbt Canvas is now generally available. dbt Insights, currently in preview, allows analysts to query, validate, and visualise data using either SQL or plain English. The tool takes into account a company's data models, lineage, and governance protocols, helping users conduct analysis and share insights within a governed workspace, reducing reliance on centralised data teams to fulfil requests. The expanded dbt Catalog now offers a consolidated search and exploration experience across Snowflake assets, even those not previously managed in dbt. This feature streamlines discovery and helps analysts understand and trust their data sources without moving between different platforms. While the catalogue is generally available, Snowflake asset exploration remains in preview, with further integrations promised. Dan Jewett, Senior Vice President, Product Management at Tableau, welcomed the update, stating, "Lowering the technical barrier to entry for data analysts has been important to Tableau from the beginning of the company. dbt's expanded offering is a game changer for customers that are looking to reduce the sizable burden on their data engineering teams, while simultaneously enabling analysts across the business in a meaningful way. It's a massive step forward for the future of data teams and one we're thrilled to continue to partner on." The company's customer WHOOP, a health monitoring technology provider, noted the impact of these tools on analyst self-service. William Tsu, Senior Analytics Engineer at WHOOP, said, "As our data needs evolve, empowering analysts with seamless self-exploration becomes increasingly critical. By keeping them within the familiar dbt Catalog they already use daily, dbt's new analyst offerings enhance discoverability and enable faster, more intuitive, and governed self-service." dbt Labs systems integrator InterWorks sees value in these changes for organisations seeking to scale analytics. James Wright, Chief Strategy Officer at InterWorks, commented, "dbt Canvas is unlocking a future where analysts can build confidently alongside engineers within the same trusted and governed workflows. We're excited about how this new development environment will help our customers unlock true self-service while maintaining the standards, security, and collaboration required to scale analytics responsibly." New cost management tools have also been introduced, with a dashboard that offers organisations visibility over data warehouse expenditure, project-level consumption, and cost-saving opportunities achieved through standardisation on dbt. This cost management dashboard, powered by the dbt Fusion engine, is in preview for Snowflake users. The dbt Fusion engine, recently developed following dbt Labs' acquisition of SDF Labs, underpins these updates. According to dbt Labs, Fusion delivers significantly improved performance, including data transformation speeds up to 30 times faster than previous iterations. The engine also introduces enhanced developer capabilities such as real-time code feedback and more efficient use of warehouse computing resources.
