Built for Engineers.
Designed for the Boardroom.
Bridging the gap between technical enforcement and business risk.
0.04ms Latency
User-space SIGMA engine. <1% CPU overhead, <0.04ms latency. No kernel modules.
$2M/yr Hardware Savings
Deploy security without upgrading infrastructure. No impact on High-Frequency Trading or AI training speeds.
100% Offline Efficacy
Local policy engine cached in kernel memory. P2P mesh propagation. No cloud dependency.
Zero Downtime Risk
Immune to internet outages or DDoS attacks. Critical infrastructure stays up even when the network goes down.
Granular Telemetry
Immutable forensic snapshots captured at syscall level. JSON-structured telemetry.
Audit Ready 24/7
Automated evidence collection for SOC2, HIPAA, and ISO. Reduce audit preparation time by 90%.
22 Protect Modules. One SIGMA Engine.
Legacy vendors run 6 separate engines — fragmented, slow, conflicting policies. 1stProtect runs one open SIGMA engine in user-space. Microsoft-compliant. Real-time.
Credential & Identity
CredentialProtect + IdentityProtect + ADProtect stop credential theft, session hijacking, and Active Directory attacks in user-space.
Ransomware & Wipers
RansomProtect + WiperProtect block destructive attacks in <400µs. File system monitoring with instant kill-switch.
Data & Exfiltration
DataProtect + ExfilProtect + DeviceProtect seal every egress path. USB, network, clipboard — all monitored.
Runtime Behavioral
CallChainProtect + InjectProtect perform API call chain analysis in real-time. Detect process injection before execution.
Application & Browser
AppProtect + BrowserProtect + URLProtect govern all application layers. Block malicious URLs and browser exploits.
System & Self-Defense
RootProtect + SelfProtect + ShellProtect harden the agent itself. Tamper-proof architecture prevents agent bypass.
Anatomy of a Kill-Switch
Transmission Intercepts
From the Design Partner Private Channel
"CallChainProtect flagged a memory injection 40 seconds before our primary EDR even detected it."
"Cables pulled. RansomProtect + ExfilProtect blocked 100% of lateral movement offline."
"CredentialProtect caught session theft our existing tools missed entirely."
Plays Nice With Your Stack.
1stProtect is a unified enforcement layer with on-host AI forensics. Our SIGMA engine streams high-fidelity telemetry directly to your existing tools via JSON, gRPC, MCP, or Syslog.

One Engine.
Not Six.
Legacy EDR runs 6 separate engines — EPP, EDR, ITDR, SASE, DLP, IAM — each with its own policies, detection pipeline, and overhead. 1stProtect replaces all of them with a single open SIGMA engine in user-space.
On-host MCP Server runs AI forensics locally — no cloud round-trip. Full investigation capability even when fully offline.

Tactical Applications
AI & LLM Training Clusters
Prevent model exfiltration. Enforce egress policies on GPU clusters where standard agents cause performance degradation.
Air-Gapped Manufacturing
Protect SCADA and OT bridges without an internet connection. Policies update via USB or local relay, enforcing logic offline.
Ephemeral K8s Workloads
Stop container escape attempts in real-time. Installs as a DaemonSet. No sidecars. No kernel module compilation required.
