Stairwell launches Backstory, pioneering agentic investigation for malware blast radius

Stairwell, the AI SOC company, announced the availability of Backstory, an agentic investigation platform that traces related malware variants, identifies affected systems, and maps the full blast radius of an incident in seconds, enabling enterprises to understand what happened and what needs containment before time is lost. The launch addresses the challenge of AI-generated malware, which makes it easier for attackers to create new variants that legacy alert-based tools struggle to detect.
