Complete Attack Surface Protection

Modern threats don't stay at one layer, discover and protect the entire attack surface from APIs to Cloud

PUBLIC APIS INTERNAL SERVICES & AI MODELS DATA STORES 3RD PARTY APIS APIS DATA External Clients Users, APIs, SaaS, Web, Mobile, IoT, Bots and more { api } { api } { api } Data Breach Cloud-Native Infra Data Breach Access Sprawl in Internal Teams
Real-time Discovery across Every Layer
Stop wasting time on static scanners and manual API testing, get automatic API catalogs, real-time insights on vulnerabilities, and prioritized runtime risks from internal, legacy and third party APIs.
Open API Graphs & Attack Paths
Get an instant view of your entire live API blueprint, across dev, staging and prod. With an intuitive graph interface, fly through risk, context, and threat models for public and internal API endpoints.
Inline Threat Protection for APIs and Kubernetes
API protection doesn't have to stop at a WAF. Protect your internal and 3rd party API interactions with K8s-native controls for protocol specific authentication, authorization, traffic rate limiting, API to API microsegmentation, and more.

VPC Mirroring vs. Runtime Protection

Beyond the Mirror: API Protection That Blocks without the costs and limitations of VPC mirroring

See how Operant API & Cloud Protector keeps your apps and agents up and running safely — catching and blocking malicious traffic at ingress and egress.

Inline, not out-of-band
VPC mirroring inspects a passive copy — the bad API call already ran. Operant blocks it in the data path, in real time.
No duplication tax
Mirroring doubles bandwidth and adds inspection appliances. Operant runs where your workloads live — no mirror sessions, no per-ENI sprawl.
Sees what WAFs miss
Perimeter WAFs skip east-west and encrypted traffic. Operant reads full API and AI context — every call, agent action, tool invocation.
API & Cloud Protector

Save time and money while securing your entire cloud-native nervous system from AI to APIs

Make Every API More Secure
Actively protect against internal and 3rd party API abuses and attacks within the application itself. With absolutely no manual work, discover the entire live API blueprint - zombies and known APIs alike - and eliminate critical threats directly within Operant’s interface without any extra engineering projects.
Do More With Less
Know everything you need to know about your APIs across your entire cloud application stack without any integrations, instrumentation or manual upkeep. Eliminate manual API catalogs, overly generic rulesets and manual remediation workflows by enforcing fine-grained security policies across every API in your stack with zero drift.
Reduce Costs & Tooling Overload
Eliminate the cost of installation, integrations, maintenance, training, and tooling upkeep while being more secure. Avoid the cost, overhead, and technical debt from VPC mirroring solutions that don’t even block OWASP attacks. Reduce the burden on your SOC with active runtime defense via purpose-built OWASP and MITRE guardrails.
Scale Applications Faster
Don’t let API risks hold your application development timelines back. Operant shields every layer of your Kubernetes-based applications against major API-based attacks and scales automatically as you grow. Deploy faster and more securely with full knowledge of your API footprint + security guardrails that protect your applications from dev to staging to prod.
