No prompts, no chatbots: first agentic AI suite with pre‑programmed security skills and human‑in‑the‑loop control
Stay ahead of threats and risk with contextualized assessment and prioritization augmented with Forescout’s proprietary threat intelligence
SAN JOSE, Calif. – With networks under siege like never before, Forescout Technologies, a global leader in cybersecurity, today introduced Forescout VistaroAI™, setting the new standard for proactive cybersecurity. In the face of adversaries armed with agentic and generative AI moving faster and more effectively than ever before, and a post-quantum reality rapidly approaching, security teams don’t need more alerts or dashboards – they need to know what changed, what matters, and what to do next.

No prompts, no chatbots
VistaroAI thinks like a security expert – not a chatbot. It eliminates the need for prompt engineering, providing role-based automation with human-in-the-loop control. The result is faster, more accurate risk decisions and a dramatically improved user experience compared to traditional, prompt-driven AI assistants.
Every day, Forescout VistaroAI provides users with a personalized view of the tasks that require attention – prioritized based on that organization’s environment and packaged with the context needed to act. Instead of chasing signals across multiple tools, teams can quickly understand what shifted in their environment overnight, why it matters, and which remediation actions to take first.
Forescout VistaroAI is the first skills-based agentic AI solution specifically designed for the cybersecurity industry. Grounded in proven cybersecurity workflows and backed by decades of Forescout expertise, VistaroAI autonomously and continuously analyzes changes, surfacing root causes, identifying potential impact, and delivering contextualized risk assessment and prioritization. VistaroAI enables security teams to move from the defense to the offense by turning continuous environmental change into organized, role-specific work with clear next steps.
Key customer benefits and capabilities include:
- More context equals faster actions: Role-based landing pages organize work into prioritized daily tasks with clear next steps
- Immediate clarity on change: Forescout VistaroAI continuously surfaces what changed – new assets, shifting risks, and emerging threats
- Actionable context, not more alerts: Visual and narrative explanations highlight impact, root cause, and recommended actions
- One-click deeper investigations: Operators can drill deeper to understand the root cause of risk score changes, or review a full list of devices impacted by newly published KEVs, continuing investigative actions until they are confident in the correct response
- Human-in-the-loop control: Teams can review, approve, and execute actions with full governance and oversight
“Most AI tools assume security teams will adapt to the AI – learning prompts, crafting queries, and translating intent into the right inputs,” said Barry Mainz, CEO, Forescout. “VistaroAI flips that model: we’ve encoded agent-based skills with guardrails to handle the complexity behind the scenes and paired them with role-based personas that deliver recommendations and next steps aligned to real needs and responsibilities. Value is delivered on day one, and security teams experience real relief, while maximizing their output.”
Behind the scenes, VistaroAI operates as a closed loop within the customer environment and integrates Forescout 4D Platform™ telemetry and intelligence from Forescout Research – Vedere Labs. It combines deep asset intelligence, policy, operational context and real-world threat and vulnerability intelligence to deliver high-fidelity recommendations, without requiring users to become prompt engineers. Recommendations and workflows are tailored to the user, and roles available today include network operator, network security analyst, security manager, security operations center (SOC) analyst, biomedical engineer, and compliance officer.
“In 2025, we saw the peak of inflated expectations for AI in cybersecurity – AI promised relief, but most solutions focused on making individual tools smarter, while leaving the work itself just as fragmented and manual,” said Justin Foster, CTO, Forescout. “Forescout’s new agentic VistaroAI marks a shift away from AI as simply a collection of smarter features toward AI as an integrated system built around how security work actually happens. It is designed to change the experience of the work and guide the day-to-day actions that make a meaningful difference in an organization’s security posture and bottom line.”
Forescout VistaroAI
Forescout VistaroAI is built into the Forescout 4D Platform experience. It combines agentic workflows, Natural Language Search, and threat contextualization, with GenAI reporting that turns security data into clear narratives for analysts, managers, and executives. VistaroAI powers asset visibility, precise classification, detection, and intelligence across IT, OT, IoT, and IoMT, while threat intelligence from Vedere Labs lets analysts query specialized insights directly in their workflows. Forescout’s 4D Platform uses GenAI to summarize proprietary indicators of compromise and map behaviors to the MITRE ATT&CK® Framework, accelerating response time.
