Uptycs and SAP Partner to Deploy AI Security Analysts for Enterprise SOC Teams

Uptycs has announced a strategic partnership with SAP aimed at transforming how enterprise security teams manage cyber threats. Through this collaboration, the companies will deploy verifiable AI-powered analysts designed to support Security Operations Center (SOC) teams. These AI-driven “virtual employees” will assist analysts by handling routine investigative tasks, allowing security professionals to focus on more advanced threat hunting and deeper attack path analysis. As a result, organizations can strengthen their cybersecurity posture while improving operational efficiency.

At the center of this initiative is Juno, Uptycs’ AI analyst platform. Originally designed to hunt cyber threats across both cloud-native and on-premise environments, Juno now offers expanded capabilities that go far beyond traditional threat detection. In partnership with SAP, early adopters have begun using the platform as a strategic cybersecurity advisor. By analyzing large volumes of enterprise telemetry data, the system delivers detailed insights that help security teams understand risk patterns and prioritize remediation efforts more effectively.

One of the most significant outcomes of the collaboration is the ability to generate high-level strategic risk reports in a matter of minutes. Traditionally, producing these reports required weeks of manual analysis and consultation. Now, organizations can receive comprehensive security assessments comparable to consulting-level reports almost instantly. Importantly, every insight includes hyperlinked citations connected directly to each organization’s internal telemetry data, ensuring the results remain verifiable and actionable.

SAP’s participation brings considerable scale to the initiative. As one of the world’s largest enterprise technology companies, SAP employs more than 110,000 professionals across more than 150 countries. The company generates over €34 billion in annual revenue and delivers cloud services, artificial intelligence, ERP systems, and enterprise applications that power mission-critical operations for hundreds of thousands of global customers. Through this partnership, SAP’s expertise and global reach will help accelerate adoption of advanced AI-powered cybersecurity solutions.

“Security in today’s cloud-centric world demands tools that not only detect threats, but elevate strategic decision-making,” said Roland Costea, CISO and Executive Vice President, Enterprise Cloud Services at SAP. “Our partnership with Uptycs reflects a shared commitment to verifiable, intelligent cybersecurity solutions that empower teams to stay ahead of risk while transforming how enterprise security operates.”

The collaboration also arrives during a broader industry conversation about the rapid rise of agentic AI systems. Following the widely discussed “OpenClaw moment,” which highlighted both the rapid adoption of AI agents and the potential risks associated with autonomous systems bypassing traditional security controls, organizations are increasingly seeking safer frameworks for implementing AI in security operations.

To address these concerns, Juno uses what Uptycs calls a “Glass Box” architecture, designed to ensure transparency and verification in AI decision-making. The system relies on a unified ontology containing more than 150,000 telemetry columns. This structured framework maps how data points relate to one another, enabling the platform to provide highly accurate analysis of enterprise security environments.

Because of this architecture, security teams can ask straightforward questions about their systems and quickly receive verified diagnostic insights. The platform cross-references findings with external databases such as CVE repositories, ensuring that the guidance provided by AI remains factual and free from hallucinated responses. In sectors such as automotive and financial services, teams have already begun using Juno to conduct forensic investigations that previously required senior cybersecurity architects.

“The industry is tired of ‘Security Slop’ and AI that guesses,” said Ganesh Pai, CEO and Founder of Uptycs. “This partnership demonstrates how we can safely combine human and AI capabilities, moving from reactive security to strategic transformation.”

By combining SAP’s global enterprise ecosystem with Uptycs’ advanced AI-driven threat hunting platform, the partnership aims to redefine how organizations approach cybersecurity operations shifting from reactive incident response to proactive, intelligence-driven risk management.
