Prevoty

Prevoty is an application security vendor that provides runtime protection and monitoring for enterprise software environments.

• Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) and in-application security controls for web and enterprise applications (application security).
• Context-aware protection against common application-layer attacks such as injection and Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) (application security).
• Integration with existing application stacks via lightweight agents and libraries embedded into application runtimes (application security).
• Security analytics and monitoring capabilities that surface in-app attack behavior for security teams (security analytics).
• Support for deployment across on-premises (on-prem), cloud, and hybrid environments to align with enterprise application architectures (cloud security).

More About Prevoty

Prevoty operates in the application security domain, with a focus on runtime protection for enterprise applications. Its offerings are designed to System Integration Testing (SIT) inside the application runtime, rather than only at the network perimeter, allowing security controls to execute with awareness of live application context. This places Prevoty within the category of RASP and in-application security tooling, used by organizations that run custom web, Application Programming Interface (API), and enterprise applications in production.

Prevoty’s technology is typically embedded into application code or application runtimes through agents, libraries, or similar components that intercept and analyze inputs and outputs at execution time. By executing within the same process space as the protected application, these controls can inspect data flows, detect malicious payloads, and enforce security policies before an attack payload reaches sensitive logic or data stores. This aligns Prevoty with security architectures that emphasize in-process inspection and protection, complementing web application firewalls and other perimeter defenses rather than replacing them.

From a technical perspective, Prevoty aligns with secure software development and DevSecOps practices by providing protection that can be applied without extensive changes to the application’s business logic. Enterprises can integrate Prevoty’s components during development, testing, or deployment as part of Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and then manage runtime policies centrally. The platform typically supports protection against attacks such as Structured Query Language (SQL) injection, command injection, and XSS, using in-app context to validate or sanitize untrusted inputs before they are executed or rendered.

In enterprise environments, Prevoty is positioned for organizations that operate complex portfolios of custom applications across on-prem data centers, private clouds, and public cloud platforms. Its deployment model is generally compatible with common application stacks and frameworks used in Java, .NET, and other server-side technologies, although specific language and framework support is determined by the product’s documented capabilities. Security Operations (SecOps) teams can use Prevoty’s monitoring and analytics features to gain visibility into attack attempts at the application layer, correlating these events with broader Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) workflows.

Within an enterprise technology directory, Prevoty is categorized under application security, with subcategories that include RASP, in-application protection, and security analytics for application-layer threats. It serves use cases where organizations need runtime defenses embedded directly into applications, either to meet internal security policies, comply with regulatory expectations around protecting web-facing systems, or add another layer of defense alongside existing perimeter and endpoint security technologies.
