N‑able, Inc. announced the launch of three new AI‑driven detection models—Anomalous PowerShell, DNS Disruption, and Single‑Event Process Execution (SEPE)—through its Adlumin Managed Detection and Response (MDR) platform. The models are designed to spot living‑off‑the‑land tactics that traditional monitoring tools often miss, allowing security teams to identify and stop attacks more quickly.
The new capabilities are a direct result of N‑able’s November 2024 acquisition of Adlumin, which added enterprise‑grade XDR and MDR functionality to the company’s portfolio. By integrating Adlumin’s machine‑learning engine with its own SOC, N‑able can correlate PowerShell activity, DNS anomalies, and process execution events across the network, providing a more complete view of threat activity and reducing false positives.
N‑able’s 2026 State of the SOC Report, released in March, highlighted that perimeter attacks are resurging while automated investigation is becoming essential. The new models address those trends by automating the detection of subtle, stealthy attacks that blend into normal business traffic, reinforcing the company’s business‑resilience strategy and its focus on AI as a core growth driver.
Financially, the announcement follows Q4 2025 earnings that showed revenue of $130.3 million—an 11.8% year‑over‑year increase—and an EPS of $0.06, below analyst expectations of $0.10. Management cited higher operating expenses and one‑time integration costs as the primary reasons for the EPS miss, while maintaining a guidance of $554 million to $559 million in revenue for fiscal 2026 and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 30% to 31%. The new AI capabilities are positioned to support the company’s revenue growth and margin expansion in the coming years.
Troels Rasmussen, Vice President and General Manager of Security, said, “The fastest‑growing attacks today don’t look malicious; they look like business as usual. Our AI‑driven approach correlates PowerShell, DNS disruption, and process behavior to expose what legacy tools miss, helping teams detect and respond earlier, even when attackers are deliberately trying to disappear.” John Pagliuca, President and CEO, added, “Acquiring Adlumin has accelerated our ability to deliver cloud‑native XDR and MDR solutions, and these new models are a tangible result of that investment.”
The announcement coincided with N‑able’s participation in the RSA Conference 2026, where the company showcased its AI‑powered security platform to a global audience of security professionals. The new detection models are expected to differentiate N‑able from competitors that rely on signature‑based or rule‑based monitoring, positioning the company as a leader in AI‑driven threat detection for small and medium‑sized businesses.
