Product Information on QRadar User Behavior Analytics

Updated 13th October 2025

What is QRadar User Behavior Analytics?

QRadar User Behavior Analytics is a software designed to monitor and analyze user activity within an organization’s IT environment. The software leverages machine learning algorithms to detect unusual patterns and behaviors that may indicate security threats or policy violations. It provides insights into user actions by aggregating log data and contextual information from multiple sources. QRadar User Behavior Analytics helps organizations identify potential insider threats, compromised accounts, and misuse of credentials by correlating anomalies with predefined risk indicators. The software integrates with existing security information and event management systems to enhance incident detection and response, improving visibility into user behaviors across networks and applications.

QRadar User Behavior Analytics Pricing

QRadar User Behavior Analytics software typically follows a subscription-based pricing model, structured by user or data volume tiers. Pricing may vary depending on deployment options such as cloud or on-premises. The software often allows organizations to select plans based on their monitoring and analytics requirements, with licensing dependent on the number of users or events analyzed.

“Challenges in User Mapping and Alerts During UBA Configuration”

4.0
Dec 9, 2025
A great security tool, QRadar's UBA allows you to map and learn the behavior of users on your network. It can identify the standard time a user logs in, which machine and network they use, and what activities and systems they access. This allows for in-depth monitoring and facilitates the identification of pattern deviations, enabling the detection of attempts at lateral movement and even compromised accounts.

“Useful machine learning models but limited by lack of reporting”

3.0
Jun 20, 2025
The product performs quite well; it has several machine learning models that help with detection. However, I think it's very limited in some cases; it doesn't allow for report generation, and they should include the Entity section to make it more robust.

    Powerful UEBA Capabilities But Lacking Customization

    Feb 9, 2026
    The application integrates well with an instance and provides meaningful insight to user & entity behavior. However, it would be helpful if it had an option to finetune it based on user's requirements. Also, more options can be added to identify anomalies in user behavior.

The available machine learning models and the ability to generate more, the predefined rules, and the integration with your active directories.

Automated Translation from Spanish
Like

1. Easy to deploy 2. Great dashboard that provides high-level view of risky behavior 3. Easy to use

Dislike

Delay in behavior mapping. Many false positive alerts during the tool setup period. Some user behavior logs don't make much sense.

Automated Translation from Portuguese
Dislike

The fact that it doesn't have the Entity section and, above all, that reports can't be generated would be quite good to be able to generate reports for better monitoring and historical data.

Automated Translation from Spanish
Dislike

There isn't any option to add the custom or user-defined rules or queries.
