Real-time identity-driven cloud security platform
ClearVector provides real-time, identity-driven cybersecurity for cloud environments. It offers a subscription-based platform that continuously monitors cloud workloads (including serverless architectures) to detect and mitigate threats as they occur. The product works by ingesting identity and activity data, performing continuous analysis, and triggering immediate responses, with on-demand reporting and historical data insights. It integrates via API to fit existing workflows and can export security data in JSON for deeper analysis. ClearVector differentiates itself from competitors by emphasizing live, continuous security rather than periodic scans, focusing on identity-driven security tailored to cloud contexts rather than generic perimeter protection. Its goal is to help businesses of all sizes protect data and operations in the cloud by providing ongoing visibility, rapid threat detection, and actionable security recommendations through a scalable subscription service.
