The Age of AI ignites old challenges with a new fire

Cloud-native complexity was already a challenge before the AI revolution spawned a new level of API and Kubernetes usage. The same challenges that we were already facing - from securing the ephemeral internals of Kubernetes applications to blocking API attacks beyond the WAF - are only more urgent as we adopt AI via APIs and open source code.

Operant's in-line runtime protection of all data-in-use, across every interaction from infra to APIs, brings a new level of defense to your cloud-native apps with zero instrumentation, zero application code changes and zero integrations.

Operant detects and blocks >80% of OWASP API, K8s, and LLM attacks

Block lateral attacks and contain the contagion before catastrophe strikes

Unauthorized access to your cloud-native environment needs to be contained. Whether attackers weasel in through social engineering, prompt injection, or an open AI API, Operant's cloud-native micro-segmentation can block their access to PII data in real-time.

From ingress to egress, know how your data-in-use is moving while blocking nefarious behavior.

Moving data through APIs and within your cloud environment is required for modern apps to work. Let security fuel innovation instead of standing in its way with proactive guardrails that block data exfiltration, data poisoning, and other runtime attacks.

Gen AI and LLM attacks evolve every minute.

Malicious prompts, zero day vulns, and data leakage make adding AI to your cloud-native stack extremely high risk. Operant's Adaptive Internal Firewalls contain risk so that dev teams can deploy applications and AI faster while protecting PII data and blocking AI attack entry-points.

“Operant observes production containers to draw the true interactions, intentional or nefarious, down to the level of specific API calls and opens a world of operational abilities for real-time security posture.”

Senior Director of Platform at Outreach

Redefining Runtime Protection

“Securing Microservices and APIs at scale is increasingly complex. Operant’s ability to enforce security policies in real-time for APIs as well as data stores makes cloud stacks more secure than ever.”

Shiva Bhattacharjee
Senior Engineering Manager, Data Governance at Confluent

Be Secure by Default

Get started in minutes, really!

Within minutes of Operant’s single-step deployment, teams gain full transparency and control of their application internals with zero instrumentation.

Runtime Protection that just works

Without months of effort, teams can setup proactive guardrails to block common p0 attacks within a single onboarding call. Why wait?

Built-in Control.

Way beyond scanning, Operant closes the control loop by enforcing fine-grained defense capabilities across APIs (native and 3rd parties), data stores, and legacy endpoints.
