Differences between the mobile and desktop service
The Abnormal Portal (the management interface) is primarily a web interface, which is fully responsive and accessible via mobile browsers, providing core functionality. There are no fundamental differences in the core service functionality itself (detection, blocking). Mobile access is sufficient for viewing alerts, triage, and basic incident response, though the full analytical depth is best viewed on a desktop interface.
Service interface
Yes
User support accessibility
None or don’t know
Description of service interface
Abnormal provides a secure web dashboard for managing threats, reviewing incidents, configuring integrations, viewing audit logs and setting policies. An API and connectors allow programmatic access and integration with SIEM, SOAR and productivity platforms.
Accessibility standards
None or don’t know
Description of accessibility
The primary user interface is the Abnormal Portal for security analysts, which is a web-based management tool. Accessibility standards information is not publicly detailed. Users can perform all core security management functions, including viewing threats, setting policies, and investigating incidents. Users can access the platform using standard browsers but should refer to their contract for specific accessibility commitments and support.
Accessibility testing
We do not publicly disclose specific details of interface testing conducted with users of assistive technology. Our primary focus is on functionality and security for the security operations centre (SOC) persona. We continually monitor user feedback and industry standards to ensure our interface remains intuitive and highly performant. Should a buyer require detailed accessibility reports or testing evidence for specific assistive technology compatibility, this information can be requested under a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
API
Yes
What users can and can't do using the API
Users can use the API to integrate threat events and log data into third-party tools like SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) and SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) platforms. Users can also leverage the API for automated incident response and for programmatic data extraction. Users cannot use the API for the initial deployment or core configuration changes; these must be completed via the web portal for security and governance.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Abnormal aims for high availability, and our current SLA terms guarantee an uptime of at least 99.9% + for the core security platform, excluding scheduled maintenance windows. Details regarding specific service credits and refund mechanisms in the event of validated downtime below the guaranteed level are contained within the Master Service Agreement (MSA) executed upon contract award. The platform is architected across multiple cloud availability zones to minimise single points of failure and ensure service continuity.
Approach to resilience
Our service is built on resilient, highly available public cloud infrastructure across multiple availability zones. This setup ensures that if a single zone or data centre experiences failure, automatic failover mechanisms redirect traffic to the healthy zones with no intervention and minimal service disruption. Data is replicated synchronously across zones. The cloud-native architecture allows for dynamic scaling of resources to handle peak loads, further ensuring resilience against demand-based service degradation.
Outage reporting
Outages and service incidents are reported via a public, real-time status page (dashboard). Users can subscribe to updates on this page via email notifications and text notifications. Updates are also available via the Abnormal Slack channel, Atom Feed, and RSS Feed. The Abnormal Portal also features a notification bell for product updates and high-priority releases, ensuring users are kept informed of platform status and changes.

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
  • Identity federation with existing provider (for example Google Apps)
  • Username or password
  • Other
Other user authentication
Abnormal authenticates users through secure login with unique credentials and optional multi-factor authentication. Enterprise customers can enable single sign-on using SAML with providers such as Azure AD, Okta or Google Workspace. Access to systems processing customer data is controlled using unique credentials, strict role-based access policies and continuous monitoring. Programmatic access uses API tokens and secure webhook authentication.
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
Access to the Abnormal Portal is restricted through SSO (Single Sign-On) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), enforcing the Principle of Least Privilege. User roles limit access to data and functionality based on their job duties. For support channels, users must authenticate via their SSO account to verify identity before accessing sensitive information or creating support cases.

Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Configuration and change management approach
All service changes are managed via a rigorous, documented process that includes a mandatory security impact assessment, code review, and QA testing. Infrastructure and application components are tracked in a change management system. We employ Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines with automated testing. Changes are deployed using infrastructure-as-code and immutable principles to ensure consistency and minimize human error.
Vulnerability management type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Vulnerability management approach
We assess threats via continuous internal and external scanning, third-party audits, and an active bug bounty program. Information about threats is gathered from industry feeds, vendor advisories, and security research teams. Vulnerabilities are triaged based on severity, and critical patches are deployed as quickly as possible, typically within hours for zero-day threats, following a strict test and release cycle.
Protective monitoring type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Protective monitoring approach
We use SIEM tools to provide comprehensive monitoring of all platform activity and logs, identifying potential compromises through pre-defined security rules and behavioural anomaly detection. When a potential compromise is identified, an alert is automatically escalated to our 24/7 security team. Response is governed by pre-defined runbooks, prioritising rapid containment and eradication based on the severity and impact of the incident.
Incident management type
Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
Incident management approach
We maintain pre-defined playbooks for common security events. Users report incidents via the dedicated Support Portal or through direct contact channels as per their support agreement. We provide incident reports to affected customers via direct communication and the public status page, following a transparency protocol. The process includes containment, investigation, root cause analysis, and post-incident remediation planning.
