Pistachio Presence: The New Era of Insider Threat Detection
Pistachio Presence: An AI-driven insider threat detection tool
Not all cybersecurity risks come from outside the organization. Sometimes the risk is closer than you think. It might be a frustrated employee, a colleague who is about to leave, or an account compromised by an external hacker. When a security breach occurs, knowing who did what and when can make all the difference.
That’s where Pistachio Presence comes in.
An Intelligent Layer of Protection
Presence is an insider threat detection tool that adds an intelligent layer of protection across your organization’s cloud activity. It learns what “normal” looks like in your workspace and pays attention to what doesn’t fit. Built on multiple finely-tuned AI models, it continuously analyzes behavior and events to detect real threats before they escalate.
Every alert arrives with context you can act on: you see what happened, when it happened, and how it differs from that account’s usual activity. If a user is flagged, you have everything you need to start your investigation, with the exact logs just a click away. Presence stays out of the way, working quietly in the background and alerting you only when something truly needs attention, so you can focus on your work knowing we’ll notify you the moment intervention is required.
Presence connects with Microsoft Entra ID but monitors far more than just Microsoft actions. It integrates with the third-party tools your team already uses, like HubSpot, GitHub, and more, and we’re constantly adding new ones. The result is clear visibility across your entire cloud environment.
Focused on Threats, not People
Presence isn’t a surveillance tool. It looks for suspicious behavior, not individuals. It doesn’t inspect devices, track productivity, or invade privacy. It’s a solution built to do one job extremely well: detect real, critical insider threats.
Presence flags only potentially harmful activity, treating people as people and not as potential problems. And for admins, it doesn’t waste your time with noise. If something is surfaced, it’s because the behavior is unusual enough and serious enough to deserve attention. Each alert includes the full story, along with the supporting logs, so investigations never rely on assumptions.
Simple to Set Up, Ready in Minutes
Just like Practice, our cybersecurity awareness training, you can get Presence up and running in less than 10 minutes. Connect your Microsoft SSO, add your Entra ID groups, and sync your organization. Once set up, Presence starts analyzing cloud activity from licensed users immediately. Your team doesn’t need to do anything, and they won’t even notice it’s running.
Pair Presence with Practice
Cybersecurity works best when people and technology work together. Think of Presence and Practice as a duo that helps your organization stay one step ahead without interrupting anyone’s workflow. Use Pistachio’s insider threat detection and cybersecurity awareness training together to safeguard your organization and close the loop from prevention to detection to action.
For both Pistachio products, you’ll get the full experience during the free trial, which begins as soon as you connect your Microsoft Entra ID to Pistachio. You’re free to add as many or as few users as you like, and the products remain identical to the paid versions once the trial ends.
We believe in a learn-by-doing approach over snooze-worthy videos.
Instead, Pistachio tailors real-world scenarios so your team can build their cyber skills in a safe environment.

“We lacked confidence that employees would recognise today’s phishing threats or respond correctly. Since using the Pistachio platform, they are more attentive and proactive in identifying potential risks. The solution is easy to manage, quick to implement, and highly effective.
“The platform is easy to implement and provides clear insights into employee phishing awareness. Its bite-sized learning encourages participation, saves administration time, and allows us to focus more on real threat detection.”
“We were looking for a practical way to improve cybersecurity awareness across the organization. Pistachio made training simple and engaging, and we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in employee awareness with minimal effort.”
“Pistachio removed the burden of planning campaigns, collecting data, and evaluating results. The program challenges each employee at their own level and provides clear, simple reporting. Pistachio has streamlined our awareness training and strengthened our organization’s cybersecurity.”
“Our goal was to help employees better recognize phishing emails and avoid malicious links. Pistachio made this easy and engaging, and we’ve seen a clear improvement in detection, fewer clicks on phishing links, and reduced data disclosure. With minimal ongoing maintenance, it’s an effective and low-effort solution.”
“Within weeks, Presence had flagged several incidents that could have otherwise been missed, including employees forwarding company data to personal accounts during offboarding. The alerts are reliable and actionable, so we've built a full investigation process around them. Although I was skeptical at first, the value was obvious almost immediately.”
“Pistachio has reduced our manual workload to zero with its automated phishing simulations and in‑box delivery of scenario‑based trainings. This has allowed our team to dedicate time to other important security initiatives while Pistachio handles our Security Awareness program seamlessly.”
“Presence automatically detects suspicious behaviour and gives us the visibility we need without constant manual oversight. Within the first few weeks we were already seeing alerts that would have otherwise gone unnoticed as the system learns what is usual and unusual behaviour for our environment.”
“Before Pistachio, security awareness was something we could only offer to a few customers. Today it’s part of every managed service we deliver, and we haven’t had to grow the team to make that happen.”
