Architecture

Abnormal runs a cloud-native, API-first behavioral AI platform that integrates with cloud email and collaboration suites (e.g., Microsoft 365, Google Workspace) outside the mail flow, ingesting user, email, and identity telemetry into proprietary behavioral models and a data lake to drive detection, response, and human-risk scoring.[1][5][7][8][9] Its core is a proprietary behavioral foundation model and related ML pipelines hosted in its own cloud environment, exposed through its SaaS console and APIs rather than via public/open-source model distribution.[7][9]
