Insider Risk Platform Comparison

Above vs. Cyberhaven

Teramind records everything: screens, keystrokes, sessions. It leaves your analysts hours of footage to review.

Above sees and investigates everything too, with AI, and surfaces only what matters, without putting your people under a microscope.
Cyberhaven protects data — classifying and tracing files to flag data-loss incidents your team still triages.
Above’s AI agents investigate behavior and intent across SaaS, endpoint, identity, and AI, and hand you the finished case.

Why teams switch

Where Cyberhaven stops at the data

Cyberhaven is built to protect data. Insider risk is about people and intent — which is where the work piles up.

Data, not the whole picture

Cyberhaven traces files and flags data-loss events. Intent, identity, and AI-agent activity — the rest of insider risk — sit outside a data-loss lens.

Alerts you still investigate

Lineage-based incidents are cleaner, but they're still events to triage. Turning a data-movement flag into a decision is on your analysts.

Policies and classification to maintain

Someone still defines what's sensitive and which data flows to allow or block, and keeps it current as your tools and data change.

Integrate with your current tech

Above plugs into the identity, HR, EDR, and cloud tools you already run, so every investigation arrives with full context.

Integrations

Built for Investigation, Not Just Logging

Above and Cyberhaven both connect to your stack. The difference is what the connections are for.

Above's integrations pull context in

Identity, HR, and SaaS activity data feed directly into every AI-driven Above investigation, building a real narrative around who did what and why it matters. Teramind's integrations push logs out; activity and alerts are formatted and shipped to your SIEM or SOAR for your team to interpret manually.

Identity and HR context are built into every Above investigation

Above connects to Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, and Deel to pull role, department, manager, hire date, and account status for the specific person involved in an incident automatically, as part of the AI investigation itself. You get a narrative that already knows who someone is and what's normal for their role, not just a username to look up separately.

Above leverages SaaS activity as a real evidence source

Above ingests Google Workspace activity directly as investigation evidence, not just endpoint capture. That means visibility into what happened in the apps themselves, correlated alongside browser and identity signals in the same investigation.

Above gives you context instead of logs

Above's integrations are built to answer "who is this, what's normal, what changed, is it risky" automatically, inside the investigation. Teramind, like most monitoring platforms' integrations, is built to format and forward events to your SIEM, SOAR, or ticketing system, leaving the interpretation to your team.

What sets Above apart

The investigation runs itself

AI runs every investigation

Cyberhaven shows you where data went. Above's agents work out what happened and why — assembling the behavioral timeline, the context, and the recommended action.

Insider risk is more than data

Exfiltration is one signal. Above investigates intent across SaaS, endpoint, identity, and AI — the behavior a data-loss lens doesn't see.

Sees and investigates everything

SaaS, endpoint, identity, plus the AI era: custom GPTs, OAuth-scoped agents, personal AI. Every surface, one investigation.

An honest take

When Cyberhaven might be the right call

If your priority is data-loss prevention and data-security posture — classifying sensitive data and tracing where files go — Cyberhaven's data-lineage approach is a strong, modern DLP. Above is for teams that want the full insider-risk investigation — behavior, intent, identity, and AI — run automatically, on every signal.

Moving off Cyberhaven? We handle the switch

Run Above alongside Cyberhaven during evaluation, compare investigations on your own data, and consolidate when you're ready. No rip-and-replace risk.

Questions teams ask when comparing

How is Above different from Cyberhaven?
Cyberhaven is a data-security/DLP platform: it classifies and traces data to flag data-loss incidents. Above's AI agents investigate behavior and intent across SaaS, endpoint, identity, and AI, and produce the finished investigation — included, on every signal.
Is Above a DLP?
No. Above doesn't classify data or enforce data-movement policies. It investigates user and agent behavior to surface and explain insider risk — and works alongside a data-security tool if you run one.
Does Above cover AI and LLM risk?
Yes — custom GPTs trained on your IP, OAuth-scoped agents, and customer data in personal AI are investigated as behavior and intent, not just flagged as a data flow.
How long does it take to switch?
Run Above alongside Cyberhaven during evaluation, compare investigations on your own data, and consolidate when you're ready. We handle data connection.

Every endgame starts with the right opening.
