Cognyte Recognized as a Sample Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Preemptive Cybersecurity

HERZLIYA, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cognyte Software Ltd. (NASDAQ: CGNT) (“Cognyte”), a global leader in software-driven technology for investigative analytics, today announced that it was recognized as a Sample Vendor in the 2025 Gartner Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Preemptive Cybersecurity report in the Cybersecurity Precrime Platforms category, published October 7, 2025.

According to the Gartner report, “The recent accelerated growth in generative AI (GenAI) capabilities is the main ‘game changer’ for this technology. GenAI not only improves the ability of cybersecurity precrime platform providers to accurately predict criminal activities but is also leveraged by threat actors to more quickly carry out more sophisticated attacks. Therefore, the future success of cybersecurity precrime platforms will be largely determined by:

• The accuracy of the underlying AI and ML algorithms and models
• The quality and quantity of data used to train these models
• The availability of solution integrators to customize the platforms to specific industry verticals and domains.”

Cyber threats are becoming more complex and increasingly driven by AI, pressuring organizations to move from reacting to attacks to anticipating them. Many still face blind spots across their external environments, with fragmented visibility and slow response times that allow risks to escalate. The rapid adoption of GenAI by threat actors has only intensified this challenge, driving demand for solutions that combine automation, analytics and context to detect and act on emerging threats before they cause harm.

“As threats become increasingly AI-driven, organizations need to stay one step ahead with proactive, intelligence-led defense,” said Gil Cohen, Chief Product Officer at Cognyte. “LUMINAR, Cognyte’s external threat intelligence solution, harnesses GenAI-powered analytics and capabilities to deliver contextual, actionable insights that can change the game. This approach is called ‘preemptive cybersecurity’ that helps our customers predict, investigate and neutralize emerging threats before they materialize.”

Cognyte’s LUMINAR solution helps security teams stay ahead by bringing together cyber threat intelligence (CTI), digital risk protection (DRP) and external attack surface management (EASM) in a unified threat exposure management view. Powered by GenAI, LUMINAR delivers focused visibility, verified intelligence and faster remediation. Unlike solutions that provide early warnings based only on raw data, LUMINAR delivers actionable contextualized threat intelligence that enables customers to reduce risk, accelerate investigations and strengthen operational resilience.
