Detect Network Threats With Cyntros AI.
Investigate in Gurucul.
Cyntros AI sends network threat detections into Gurucul, giving analysts visibility into potential lateral movement, command and control activity, and novel or zero day threats as they investigate.

How Does the Integration Work?
Cyntros AI monitors network traffic out of band and sends detections to Gurucul. Analysts can investigate those findings alongside identity, endpoint, and log data, then use Gurucul’s response workflow.
A Next Gen Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform powered by Adaptive Machine Learning that exposes malicious network activity traditional security tools often fail to see.
See More of an Intrusion With Cyntros AI and Gurucul
Attackers rarely need to defeat every control. They need one route in and enough time to move undetected. Frontier AI models have shortened that window, identifying large numbers of previously unknown vulnerabilities before any signature exists.
Identity, endpoint, and log data reveal important parts of an intrusion. Network detections add another perspective, including activity that may be missed by those sources.

How Cyntros AI and Gurucul
Handle an Incident
-
01
Gurucul Watches the Account
An attacker signs in with valid credentials. Gurucul is already watching that account's behavior across identity, endpoint, and log telemetry.
-
02
The Attacker Moves Onto the Network
The attacker moves laterally between systems. That east-west traffic and command-and-control activity may not generate clear endpoint or log indicators at all.
-
03
Cyntros AI Catches the Movement
Cyntros AI is already monitoring that traffic. It flags the movement against your network's live baseline and sends the detection into Gurucul in real time.
-
04
Analysts Investigate and Respond
Analysts review the Cyntros AI detection in Gurucul alongside identity, endpoint, and log data. They can then investigate the related activity and use configured response workflows.
What Cyntros AI
Brings to Gurucul
Six ways the network layer adds to a Gurucul deployment, all of them inside the workflow your analysts already use.
A New Source of Signal
Cyntros AI adds network detections to what Gurucul already correlates. Detections arrive in real time as high confidence events that enrich existing investigations inside the workflow your analysts already use.
Detection Without a Catalogue
Cyntros AI uses Adaptive Machine Learning to build a live baseline of your network and flag departures from it. No signatures, no static rules, no pretrained attack models. Because that baseline comes from your own traffic, what reaches analysts is behavior that actually departs from it.
Alerts Worth Working
Adaptive Machine Learning identifies unusual network behavior and sends high confidence detections to Gurucul, helping analysts focus their investigations on activity that warrants attention.
Visibility for Devices Without Agents
Cyntros AI can detect suspicious network activity involving devices that cannot run an agent, including IoT and OT devices.
Visibility Into Emerging Attacks
Cyntros AI detects unusual network behavior without relying on known attack signatures, helping teams identify novel threats, including attacks developed or accelerated with AI.
Network Detection Inside the AI SOC
Cyntros AI extends Gurucul AI SOC operations with network detections and automated workflows.

FAQ
Questions About the Gurucul Integration
Does Cyntros AI replace any part of Gurucul?
No. Cyntros AI analyzes network behavior and sends detections into Gurucul, extending what your SOC can see rather than replacing tools you already run. Gurucul continues to handle threat detection, investigation, and automated response across identity, endpoint, and log telemetry. Cyntros AI adds the network layer that those data sources may not capture.
What does deploying Cyntros AI alongside Gurucul require?
Cyntros AI is agentless and runs out of band on a mirrored copy of your traffic or on flow logs, so there is nothing to install on endpoints and nothing in the path of live traffic. Deployment connects Cyntros AI to your network via TAP/SPAN ports, cloud traffic mirroring, or flow logs. From there Cyntros AI maps communication flows and traffic patterns into a live baseline, keeps that baseline current as your environment changes, and routes its detections into your existing Gurucul deployment.
Does Cyntros AI need rules, signatures, or training data?
No. Cyntros AI uses Adaptive Machine Learning to learn your network's normal behavior from your own traffic, then flags what departs from it. There are no rules to write, no signatures to curate, and no training data to label. That is how Cyntros AI surfaces novel and zero-day attacks that signature-dependent tools tend to miss.
What kinds of threats does the Cyntros AI and Gurucul integration surface?
Cyntros AI detects potential lateral movement, anomalous east to west traffic, command and control communications, and novel or zero day threats. It sends these detections into Gurucul in real time, where they enrich investigations alongside identity and log data and can trigger automated response workflows. These behaviors may leave no clear endpoint or log indicator, which is why network detections add to what Gurucul already correlates.
