Plerion vs RAD Security

About RAD Security

RAD Security sells AI Workers that investigate, triage, and act on threats across a customer's entire stack. RAD Security describes its AI Workers as purpose-built agents that triage, route, and act, with every action traceable and every decision explainable. RAD Security connects security tools through an MCP server and 50+ integrations that form a single data fabric. Integrations in the RAD Security platform ingest alerts, logs, and findings that are timestamped and source-tagged. RAD Security analyzes, correlates, and enriches every signal against live runtime context.^{[1][2][4][5][6]}

RAD Security's cloud security posture view covers AWS, GCP, Azure, and Linode and displays misconfigured resources, IAM issues, and compliance status. RAD Security's Kubernetes security posture view covers cluster misconfigurations, RBAC issues, and CIS Benchmark scoring. RAD Security's runtime security monitoring shows runtime threats and behavioral anomalies detected by eBPF sensors across all clusters. RAD Security's software supply chain view covers SBOM coverage, dependency vulnerabilities, and package provenance.^[2][5]

RAD Security deploys lightweight eBPF-based agents that collect runtime signals. RAD Security's sensors continuously discover and track every asset in a Kubernetes environment, including containers, images, workloads, network connections, process executions, and their relationships to each other. RAD Security streams Kubernetes API events and tracks resource creation, modification, and deletion as they happen. RAD Security's image scanning is continuous, detects CVEs, and generates software bills of materials. RAD Security includes an admission controller that catches policy violations before they reach clusters.^[4][6][7]

RAD Bot is an AI agent with direct access to a customer's live environment data through three connected layers. RAD Bot queries a customer's live environment, correlates the results, and delivers findings with full source attribution. RAD Bot connects to Jira, Slack, ServiceNow, and email so users can escalate, assign, and remediate without leaving the conversation. RAD Bot can query data from EDR, SIEM, vulnerability scanners, and ticketing systems through a single conversation. RAD Bot covers AWS CloudTrail activity, cloud posture findings, and identity and access signals from Okta, Entra ID, and Google Workspace. RAD Bot automatically searches the Knowledge Base for relevant context and cites sources in every answer. RAD Security's Knowledge Base accepts PDFs, Markdown, CSVs, or plain text. RAD Bot workflows run multi-step investigations automatically and deliver results to an inbox, Slack, email, or ticketing system.^[7][8]

RADQL is a SQL-like query language built for security data. RADQL is included with every RAD Security deployment. RADQL queries span containers, vulnerabilities, runtime events, cloud resources, and identity signals with a single, consistent schema. RADQL results can be exported to CSV or JSON. RAD Security offers 9 pre-built dashboard templates covering findings, containers, runtime, and compliance. RAD Security dashboards can track misconfigurations mapped to NIST 800-53 controls with compliance scores.^[9][11]

The Evidence Room in RAD Security aggregates vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, runtime threats, and attack paths into a single prioritized view. In the Evidence Room, findings are automatically mapped to compliance frameworks such as CIS, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, and NIST for audit readiness. Evidence Room findings flow into existing tools so that users can create tickets, alert teams, and export to a SIEM. RAD Security provides audit-ready compliance documentation for CIS, PCI-DSS, SOC2, HIPAA, and NSA Hardening frameworks.^[2][5][12]

AI Insights in RAD Security continuously analyzes a cloud-native environment and surfaces what matters most. AI Insights rankings are based on exploitability, blast radius, business context, and attack path relevance. AgentKeeper is RAD Security's open-source tool that maps a cloud identity attack surface. RAD Security states that its infrastructure is SOC 2 Type 2 certified.^{[2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]}
