Comparison Guide
Vehere is a security first company built from the ground-up with threat detection, investigation and real time response as its foundation. Security isn’t an add-on. Instead, it’s at the core of every product decision and capability.
In contrast, Corelight originated from the Zeek network security monitoring project (formerly BRO) and later expanded into NDR space with an evidence-first analytics approach. Despite its approach, evidence depth and handling are not fully realized in the platform.
Vehere NDR delivers lossless full-packet capture across E-W and N-S traffic, enabling full-session reconstruction and deep forensic investigation without blind spots.
Corelight Open NDR observes raw packets, parses them with Zeek to generate metadata and captures rule based selective PCAPs. Requires third-party solutions such as Endace for full PCAP access, limiting investigation depth.
Vehere NDR supports advanced analytics, full session reconstruction and retrospective analysis as built-in capabilities, at no additional cost.
Corelight Open NDR offers forensics as a paid, feature-gated add-on, with dependency on third-party tools.
Vehere NDR supports 5000+ protocols, delivering protocol agnostic visibility.
Corelight Open NDR supports 50+ protocols.
Vehere NDR provides native, on-demand file analysis, enabling safe detonation and inspection of suspicious files in a safe environment.
Corelight Open NDR does not support file execution or detonation.
Vehere NDR enables custom rule creation and pivoting from alerts to full PCAPs within seconds.
Corelight Open NDR relies on Zeek and Suricata based alerts with limited alert customization. Selective PCAP workflows are available only through the Corelight’s paid Smart PCAP add-on.
Vehere offers built-in PII hashing and masking, with customizable privacy rules, ensuring 100% of customer data remains sovereign and on-premises.
Corelight Open NDR does not explicitly state PII masking or hashing capabilities.
Ingests Zeek metadata and rule-based selectively captured PCAPs, constraining full packet behavioral analysis.
Vehere’s AI amplifies human detection to expertise, detecting hidden threats, connecting signals, and accelerating response across massive, complex environments
Vehere delivers full-packet visibility, built-in forensics, native on-demand file analysis, full-session reconstruction, and support for over 500,000 hosts. Its on-prem deployment model, behavioral analytics on encrypted traffic, flexible querying, PII masking, and support for 5000+ protocols provide unmatched investigative depth and control.
Corelight Open NDR relies on Zeek metadata and rule-based selective packet capture with forensics available as a paid add-on and PCAP workflows dependent on third-party tools. It lacks native sandboxing and PII masking, supports 50+ protocols and is open source. Users have reported the need to build custom Corelight modules to properly structure and ingest data.
