Best forSecurity and identity teams governing AI agents, non-human identities and connected SaaS apps; CISOs who need to uncover shadow AI, unsanctioned apps and unreviewed agent integrations; Enterprises running 40+ tier-one SaaS apps with a SOC drowning in alert noise; Teams that want runtime guardrails and enforcement, not just posture dashboardsIT and security teams that need to remove standing local admin rights without drowning the help desk in install requests.; Mid-market and enterprise organisations preparing for audits that demand least-privilege evidence and full audit logs.; Companies wanting one lightweight agent for endpoint privilege, browser control and remote/vendor access instead of several heavy tools.; Teams that value fast rollout: sub-3MB agent, installs in hours, and most customers need zero training.
Not forSmall businesses without a dedicated security or identity team; Buyers looking only for endpoint, email or network security; Teams wanting a stand-alone GRC or compliance-only tool; Organisations unwilling to connect third-party apps by API for continuous monitoringOrganisations that need a full privileged access management suite with credential vaulting for servers, databases and service accounts.; Buyers who require published list pricing before a demo; licensing is quoted by the vendor's sales team.; Teams looking for a broad AI platform; AI here is scoped to request auto-approval and a documentation chatbot.
