What you get that they don't.
- Transparent pricing
- EU-hosted
- Built-in compliance
No Per-EPS Licensing
Predictable per-agent pricing means no surprises as your log volume grows. Scale without worrying about ingestion costs.
Rust-Native Engine + 5-Phase Vuln Scanner
Our Rust-native engine delivers QRadar-class performance in a single container. The built-in 5-phase vulnerability scanner covers network recon through continuous assessment, with no separate Qualys license.
Code Security & Secret Detection
Scan source code, dependencies, and IaC configs for vulnerabilities before deployment. Detect hardcoded secrets across 8 languages. QRadar has no equivalent built-in capability.
