For your security & engineering team

For the engineers who'll put us through our paces.

Marketing claims are easy. Here's the architecture behind them — for the people whose job is to not believe us. SIGMA engine, 22 modules, latency numbers, deployment options, integrations, and the rigorous case for why prompt filtering and EDR fall short.

Built for Engineers.
Designed for the Boardroom.

Bridging the gap between technical enforcement and business risk.

Engineering View

0.04ms Latency

User-space SIGMA engine. <1% CPU overhead, <0.04ms latency. No kernel modules.

Executive View

$2M/yr Hardware Savings

Deploy security without upgrading infrastructure. No impact on High-Frequency Trading or AI training speeds.

Engineering View

100% Offline Efficacy

Local policy engine cached in kernel memory. P2P mesh propagation. No cloud dependency.

Executive View

Zero Downtime Risk

Immune to internet outages or DDoS attacks. Critical infrastructure stays up even when the network goes down.

Engineering View

Granular Telemetry

Immutable forensic snapshots captured at syscall level. JSON-structured telemetry.

Executive View

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.

CredentialProtectIdentityProtectADProtect

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.

Core Architecture

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.

MCP AI
USER-SPACE / MS-COMPLIANT

Single SIGMA Engine. 22 Modules.

User-Space Architecture

Microsoft-compliant user-space enforcement. No kernel modules, no driver conflicts. Single SIGMA engine with open-standard detection.

On-Host MCP Forensics

AI Investigator runs locally on the device via MCP protocol. Full forensics with zero cloud latency, even when fully offline.
