Threat Stack enables DevOps and SecOps teams to innovate and scale security by providing full-stack security observability from the control plane up to the application layer. Purpose-built for today’s infrastructure, the Threat Stack Cloud Security Platform® and Cloud SecOps Program℠ combine cloud-optimized intrusion detection, continuous security monitoring, machine learning, and proactive risk assessment to help security and operations teams detect security incidents, achieve compliance, and secure infrastructure in transition. 

We are defining the way Cloud Security is done. We are the only cloud-native continuous monitoring solution that gives users instant visibility into their environment, protecting them in real time from insider threats, external attacks, and data loss. Optimized for cloud deployment, our solution allows growth-driven companies to scale confidently without sacrificing speed or efficiency. 

Threat Stack is a cloud security platform built on a large network of microservices supplied with data by a vast collection of distributed agents written in Go, C, Python, and Rust. Our agent software gathers cyber threat intelligence data from within customer environments to proactively identify potential attack vectors and identify malicious activity in real time. The agents must prioritize security, performance, scalability, and adaptability to increase our customer's awareness so that they can safely and securely leverage the business benefits of the cloud.
