Anti-Pitch: When NOT to use 1stProtect

We value engineering fit over revenue. Do not deploy 1stProtect if:

  • You need a tool for Compliance Box-Checking rather than active defense.
  • You require Windows endpoint support today (it's on our engineering roadmap).
  • You want a "Single Pane of Glass" to manage IT inventory (we are strictly security).
  • You rely on human analysts to manually approve every block action (we move too fast).
