## Market Readiness

How well the company can compete in its security market, scored across eight dimensions against public evidence.

**Established (26/40)**

Analyzed 2026-09-23. Scope: whole company.

| Dimension | Score | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Problem Clarity | 3/5 | DeepKeep names its buyers, enterprises securing custom AI applications, AI agents and employee AI use, and the threats its products address, from prompt injection and jailbreaks to data leakage. Article 15 of the EU AI Act independently requires high-risk AI systems to resist data poisoning and adversarial examples, with rules for many such systems applying from December 2027. No cited non-vendor source quantifies the pain for DeepKeep’s buyers. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s3](#profile-analysis-sources), [s36](#profile-analysis-sources), [s37](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Capability Depth | 3/5 | DeepKeep’s own pages document inline and out-of-band firewall modes, static and dynamic model scanning with SBOM and MLBOM inventories, and scheduled or human-steered red teaming. TrueFoundry documents a working gateway integration with DeepKeep’s moderation API and Intellyx describes the modules. The product documentation portal requires a password. No third-party evaluation of detection quality appears in the reviewed sources. \[[s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s7](#profile-analysis-sources), [s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s38](#profile-analysis-sources), [s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s27](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Market Timing | 4/5 | In March 2026, Intellyx described analyst segments for AI security, including runtime enforcement and red teaming. The EU AI Omnibus took effect on 27 July 2026. AI Act rules for high-risk systems in areas such as biometrics apply from 2 December 2027. Article 15 requires those systems to resist adversarial attacks. Ohayon cited MITRE ATLAS’s 2021 release as an external sign of expected growth in AI security. \[[s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s37](#profile-analysis-sources), [s36](#profile-analysis-sources), [s15](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Team Credibility | 4/5 | Founder and CEO Rony Ohayon says he founded LiveU, serving as CTO until its acquisition, and founded DriveU, and he is a named inventor on DeepKeep’s granted US patent. DeepKeep researchers publish adversarial machine learning papers at TMLR and at ICLR and ICCV workshops, and an arXiv preprint independently lists DeepKeep affiliations. His earlier companies worked in video and vehicle connectivity, so the in-domain record is the team’s publications. \[[s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources), [s6](#profile-analysis-sources), [s34](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| GTM Proof | 3/5 | DeepKeep names NTT Data, ST Engineering, Macnica, Consist, EY and CTC as customers under a Trusted By heading, and AWS Marketplace lists its automated red-teaming product with a 12-month contract price. SecurityWeek relays the company’s statement that global enterprises use it. No customer testimony or third-party figure for customer count or revenue appears in the reviewed sources, so no independent source supports a scale figure. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s32](#profile-analysis-sources), [s23](#profile-analysis-sources), [s13](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Funding Efficiency | 3/5 | DeepKeep announced a $10 million seed led by Awz Ventures in May 2024. It reported a €2.5 million EIC blended-finance award through the October 2024 cut-off. These amounts are broadly proportional to a seed-stage enterprise motion. It has shipped visibly since, adding an agent scanner, cloud marketplace listings and a TrueFoundry integration in 2026. DeepKeep discloses no revenue or growth figure that would confirm output per dollar. \[[s13](#profile-analysis-sources), [s9](#profile-analysis-sources), [s31](#profile-analysis-sources), [s23](#profile-analysis-sources), [s11](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Category Clarity | 3/5 | Intellyx, which says none of the vendors it names is a client, places DeepKeep as a full-lifecycle AI security platform spanning runtime protection, shadow AI and agentic security (s22). The other analyst placements, a MarketsandMarkets description and Omdia recognition, appear on DeepKeep’s own homepage and press release (s1, s24). DeepKeep fits a recognizable AI security category, but placement beyond one independent analyst still rests on the company’s own framing. \[[s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s24](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Incumbent Defensibility | 3/5 | Palo Alto Networks already sells model scanning, AI red teaming and runtime protection in Prisma AIRS after buying Protect AI, the capability types behind much of DeepKeep’s language-model coverage. DeepKeep adds friction to absorption through coverage of image and video models, on-premises and air-gapped deployment, and a granted patent on model hardening. No reviewed source describes any of them as a moat that bundling could not replicate. \[[s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |

### Business Risks

- Palo Alto Networks sells model scanning, AI red teaming and runtime protection inside Prisma AIRS, so an enterprise that already buys from it could decline a separate DeepKeep purchase for language-model security.
- Check Point completed its acquisition of Lakera and sells its red teaming and guardrails in a unified platform, so Check Point can offer its own customers red teaming and guardrails that compete with DeepKeep’s.

### Problem & Market

DeepKeep treats the AI applications, agents and models an enterprise runs as assets under attack, and sells security across their lifecycle. Its homepage describes an AI security suite for custom apps, AI agents and users that works across any model. The LLM page lists prompt injection, adversarial manipulation, semantic attacks, data leakage and hallucination among the risks it addresses.

Regulation now describes the same problem in law. Article 15 of the EU AI Act requires high-risk AI systems to resist attempts to exploit their vulnerabilities, including data poisoning and adversarial examples. The European Commission states that rules for high-risk systems in areas such as biometrics and critical infrastructure apply from 2 December 2027.

DeepKeep frames the buyer’s pain across language and vision models together. Its vision page covers object detection and facial recognition models, and its homepage says text, images and video are understood as one signal. Founder Rony Ohayon told Unite.AI that DeepKeep launched in 2021 to address risks in computer vision models, before the rise of large language models. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s3](#profile-analysis-sources), [s36](#profile-analysis-sources), [s37](#profile-analysis-sources), [s4](#profile-analysis-sources), [s15](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Product Capabilities

DeepKeep sells a platform of five capabilities under one policy engine. The AI Firewall inspects every AI interaction and blocks, redacts or alerts on violations, AI Red Teaming tests applications, models and agents, and Model Scanning combines static analysis with dynamic testing. The homepage adds AI Lens for employee and developer AI use and an AI Agent Scanner that maps the tools and actions an agentic workflow can reach.

The firewall runs inline or out of band. Inline, it sits between users, applications and AI models to block in real time, while the out-of-band mode analyzes interactions asynchronously without touching traffic flow. Red teaming runs as scheduled CI/CD playbooks or as a human-steered mode in which the customer’s team directs attacks in natural language, and its findings can update firewall enforcement.

DeepKeep offers deployment options that keep data in-house. DeepKeep states the firewall runs as SaaS, in a private cloud, on premises or fully air-gapped, and Intellyx reports a proxy configuration and an API configuration. DeepKeep’s scanning and red-teaming pages say both work on language and computer vision models, and its research page lists work on audio model attacks too. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s7](#profile-analysis-sources), [s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s6](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Competitive Positioning

Large security vendors now sell the capability types DeepKeep sells. Palo Alto Networks completed its acquisition of Protect AI in July 2025 and combined model scanning, AI red teaming and runtime protection in Prisma AIRS. Check Point completed its acquisition of Lakera, whose detection, red teaming and guardrails it now sells in a unified platform. An enterprise that already buys from either vendor can source those capability types from an existing supplier.

DeepKeep positions itself on breadth across model types and deployment settings. Its pages describe firewall, scanning and red teaming for language and computer vision models, with deployment on premises or air-gapped. Intellyx describes it as a comprehensive, full-lifecycle AI security platform whose modules customers can also buy individually.

DeepKeep also sells through cloud marketplaces and partner integrations. It announced listings on Google Cloud Marketplace and AWS Marketplace in February 2026 and became a Google Cloud Partner. TrueFoundry documents a DeepKeep firewall integration for its AI gateway, which lets a TrueFoundry customer apply DeepKeep policies to traffic already routed through that gateway. \[[s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s18](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s4](#profile-analysis-sources), [s7](#profile-analysis-sources), [s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s23](#profile-analysis-sources), [s38](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Go-to-Market & Traction

DeepKeep names six customers on its homepage. Under a Trusted By heading it lists NTT Data, ST Engineering, Macnica, Consist, EY and CTC. SecurityWeek’s 2024 funding report relays the company’s statement that global enterprises in AI computing, finance and security already use its platform.

DeepKeep has added cloud marketplace and partner channels. It announced availability on Google Cloud Marketplace and AWS Marketplace in February 2026, and AWS lists DeepKeep Automated AI Red Teaming as a software-as-a-service product. The listing prices a 12-month license with a pre-set number of red-teaming executions at $1,000,000, and AWS states that vendors are responsible for their listing content.

DeepKeep’s own announcements add product launches and analyst recognition. It released an AI Agent Scanner, free to enterprises, in March 2026 and announced a TrueFoundry gateway integration in August 2026. A DeepKeep press release says Omdia recognized it as an AI security innovator in an On the Radar report. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s13](#profile-analysis-sources), [s23](#profile-analysis-sources), [s32](#profile-analysis-sources), [s31](#profile-analysis-sources), [s11](#profile-analysis-sources), [s24](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Team & Credibility

Founder and CEO Rony Ohayon brings a record of earlier company builds. He told Pulse 2.0 that he founded LiveU, serving as its CTO until its acquisition, and founded DriveU, and that he holds more than 30 registered patents. He is a named inventor on US patent 12,450,363, which Google Patents records as assigned to DeepKeep.

DeepKeep’s research staff publish steadily on adversarial machine learning. The research page lists papers at TMLR, at ICLR and ICCV workshops and at ECML-PKDD, covering jailbreaks, adversarial detection and attacks on object detectors. Ohayon co-authored a 2024 TMLR paper on detecting adversarial attacks against deepfake detectors, and an arXiv preprint lists DeepKeep affiliations for two authors of another paper.

The management team is publicly identifiable. The About page names Ohayon, CTO Yossi Altevet, whom a DeepKeep release calls a co-founder, and vice presidents for product, marketing, Americas sales and research and development. \[[s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources), [s6](#profile-analysis-sources), [s34](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources), [s31](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Trust Readiness

DeepKeep’s homepage publishes SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and GDPR badges. No inspectable trust portal or downloadable audit report appears in the reviewed sources, so a procurement team would request the underlying reports directly.

Deployment options answer data-residency questions a security review raises. DeepKeep says the firewall runs on premises and in air-gapped environments so organizations control where data is processed, and Ohayon told Unite.AI that full deployment flexibility was a deliberate early decision. \[[s35](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s15](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

## Strategy Deep Dive

A closer look at the company's product strategy, measuring how [defensible](https://zeltser.com/scoring-security-product-strategy) it is against market forces and examining the [eight areas](https://zeltser.com/security-product-creation-framework) behind it.

### Defensibility

**Contested (14/21)**

Band guidance: reinforce or reposition. Analyzed 2026-09-23. Scope: whole company.

DeepKeep owns a US patent, granted in October 2025, on hardening machine learning engines against attacks. Its researchers publish adversarial machine learning work across language, vision and audio models. Palo Alto Networks sells model scanning, red teaming and runtime protection after buying Protect AI. Check Point sells red teaming and guardrails after buying Lakera, so DeepKeep competes with suites that bundle the capability types it sells.

| Dimension | Score | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Value Delivery | 1/3 | Customers license software modules and run them, and the AWS listing sells red teaming as a pre-set number of automated executions, so the customer’s team operates the product and owns the outcomes. \[[s32](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Switching Cost | 2/3 | A customer that runs the firewall inline on its AI traffic or wires red teaming into CI/CD schedules builds integration and workflow friction. TrueFoundry customers connect DeepKeep’s firewall as a custom guardrail that they would need to reconfigure when replacing DeepKeep. No data residency lock, network effect or non-portable state appears in the reviewed sources. The reviewed sources include no estimate of migration effort. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s38](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Compliance Moat | 1/3 | DeepKeep’s homepage publishes SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and GDPR badges. A funded rival can meet these requirements through ordinary enterprise preparation. No product-carried authorization or regulator-mediated approval appears in the reviewed sources. \[[s35](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Problem Complexity | 3/3 | Detecting adversarial inputs, scanning model files statically and dynamically, and running adaptive attacks against language and vision models is applied machine learning work. DeepKeep’s researchers publish on adversarial attacks and detection at TMLR and at ICLR and ICCV workshops. \[[s7](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s6](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Buyer Profile | 3/3 | DeepKeep’s chief executive says the platform is deployed by global enterprises in finance, security and AI computing, and that it stopped data leakage and toxic responses at a large financial institution (s16). SecurityWeek’s launch coverage relays the same sector list (s13). Regulated financial buyers of the product meet the rung, though the evidence is the company’s own account, the institution is unnamed, and the chief executive calls those engagements trials. \[[s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s13](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Layer | 2/3 | DeepKeep sells a platform of security modules with application features. The firewall runs inline or out of band on a customer’s AI traffic, and the scanners and red teaming run over the customer’s models and applications as tools the customer’s team invokes. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s7](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Proprietary Data, Content, or IP | 2/3 | DeepKeep holds US patent 12,450,363, granted on 21 October 2025 and assigned to DeepKeep Ltd, on hardening machine learning engines against attacks, and lists it on its About page. That granted patent is evidenced IP. No named non-public dataset or cross-customer telemetry asset appears in the reviewed sources. \[[s19](#deep-dive-sources), [s5](#deep-dive-sources)\] |

### Strategic Market Segmentation

DeepKeep sells to enterprises securing three kinds of AI use. Its homepage describes a suite for custom-built AI applications, AI agents and employees’ use of AI, built to work across any model. Its Trusted By list names customers including NTT Data, EY and ST Engineering.

DeepKeep separates a language-model line from a vision line. DeepKeep for LLM covers attacks such as prompt injection and data leakage, while DeepKeep for Vision covers object detection and facial recognition models, with manufacturing inspection as a worked example. Founder Rony Ohayon told Pulse 2.0 that DeepKeep started out securing computer vision models and now covers language and multimodal models as well.

European regulation will require many high-risk AI systems to resist the attacks DeepKeep tests for. Article 15 of the EU AI Act names data poisoning, model poisoning and adversarial examples among the attacks those systems must withstand. The European Commission states that rules for high-risk systems in areas such as biometrics and critical infrastructure apply from 2 December 2027. DeepKeep names the EU AI Act on its homepage among the rules that demand evidence from AI teams. \[[s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s3](#deep-dive-sources), [s4](#deep-dive-sources), [s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s36](#deep-dive-sources), [s37](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Product Capabilities & AI Advantages

DeepKeep covers build-time testing and runtime enforcement in one platform. Model Scanning combines multi-engine static analysis with dynamic testing. It also builds inventories of software and machine-learning model components and dependencies. AI Red Teaming runs scheduled playbooks or a human-steered mode, and the AI Firewall blocks, redacts or alerts on each interaction. DeepKeep says red-teaming findings can feed firewall enforcement and AI Lens usage policies.

DeepKeep’s researchers publish sustained work on adversarial machine learning across model types. The research page lists papers on jailbreaking language models, detecting adversarial inputs, attacking object detectors and attacking audio models, at venues including TMLR and ICLR and ICCV workshops. Ohayon co-authored a 2024 TMLR paper on detecting adversarial attacks against deepfake detectors.

DeepKeep holds a granted US patent on protecting machine learning engines. Google Patents records US12450363B2, granted on 21 October 2025 and assigned to DeepKeep Ltd, describing an offline unit that hardens a protected engine against attacks. No named non-public dataset or third-party benchmark of detection accuracy appears in the reviewed sources, so the patent is the owned asset in the reviewed sources. \[[s7](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s6](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Sales Engagement & Go-to-Market

DeepKeep names six customers on its homepage. Its Trusted By list shows NTT Data, ST Engineering, Macnica, Consist, EY and CTC. SecurityWeek’s 2024 funding report relays the company’s statement that global enterprises in AI computing, finance and security use the platform.

DeepKeep sells directly and through cloud marketplaces. It announced listings on Google Cloud Marketplace and AWS Marketplace in February 2026 and became a Google Cloud Partner. AWS lists DeepKeep Automated AI Red Teaming as a software-as-a-service product sold by DeepKeep.

DeepKeep’s recent announcements cover product launches and partner integrations. DeepKeep released an AI Agent Scanner, free to enterprises, in March 2026, and announced a TrueFoundry AI Gateway integration in August 2026. A DeepKeep press release says Omdia recognized it as an AI security innovator in an On the Radar report. \[[s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s13](#deep-dive-sources), [s23](#deep-dive-sources), [s32](#deep-dive-sources), [s31](#deep-dive-sources), [s11](#deep-dive-sources), [s24](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Pricing Model

DeepKeep lists a price for red teaming on AWS Marketplace. AWS shows a 12-month license that includes a pre-set number of AI red-teaming executions at $1,000,000. AWS states that pricing follows the duration and terms of the buyer’s contract with the vendor.

DeepKeep sells the platform as a whole or in parts. Intellyx reports that the company sells individual modules to companies that need only part of the solution, and DeepKeep’s own pages route buyers to a demo. No list price for the firewall, model scanning or AI Lens appears in the reviewed sources.

DeepKeep meters that red-teaming license in automated red-teaming executions. A buyer sizing a purchase would estimate how many executions its testing needs over the contract year. \[[s32](#deep-dive-sources), [s22](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Product Delivery & Operations

DeepKeep delivers software that the customer’s team operates. The firewall runs inline between applications and AI models or out of band through an orchestrator, and Intellyx reports a proxy configuration and an API configuration. Red teaming runs on CI/CD schedules or in sessions the customer’s team steers in natural language.

Deployment options cover cloud, private and isolated environments. DeepKeep says the firewall runs as SaaS, in a private cloud, on premises or fully air-gapped, and Ohayon told Unite.AI that full deployment flexibility was a deliberate early decision. The AWS red-teaming listing is a software-as-a-service product.

Partners can route existing AI traffic through DeepKeep. TrueFoundry documents deploying a small wrapper service that its AI gateway calls as a custom guardrail, translating gateway requests into DeepKeep’s moderation API. The product documentation portal at docs.deepkeep.ai requires a password, so technical evaluators need access from DeepKeep to read it. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s22](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources), [s32](#deep-dive-sources), [s38](#deep-dive-sources), [s27](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Earning Customers' Trust

DeepKeep’s homepage publishes SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and GDPR badges. No inspectable trust portal or downloadable audit report appears in the reviewed sources, so a procurement team would request the underlying reports from DeepKeep.

DeepKeep addresses data-handling concerns through deployment choice. DeepKeep says on-premises and air-gapped deployment lets organizations control where data is processed and stored. Its red-teaming page says the product helps customers align with GDPR, ISO 27001, OWASP guidance for LLMs and MITRE ATLAS. \[[s35](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Platform Strategy & Ecosystem Positioning

Large security vendors have bought companies that sell DeepKeep’s capability types. Palo Alto Networks completed its acquisition of Protect AI in July 2025 and combined model scanning, AI red teaming and runtime protection in Prisma AIRS. Check Point completed its acquisition of Lakera and sells its detection, red teaming and guardrails in a unified platform. An enterprise that already buys from either vendor can source those capability types from an existing supplier.

DeepKeep builds its ecosystem through cloud and gateway partners. It announced Google Cloud Marketplace and AWS Marketplace listings in February 2026 and became a Google Cloud Partner. TrueFoundry documents a DeepKeep firewall integration for its AI gateway, and the AI Agent Scanner supports frameworks including Microsoft-based frameworks, Agentforce, OpenAI Agents, CrewAI and n8n.

DeepKeep sells coverage for agents and employee AI use alongside models. The homepage lists AI Lens for employee and developer AI use and an AI Agent Scanner that maps the tools and actions an agentic workflow can reach, next to the firewall, red teaming and model scanning. \[[s17](#deep-dive-sources), [s18](#deep-dive-sources), [s23](#deep-dive-sources), [s38](#deep-dive-sources), [s31](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Team & Execution Capability

Founder and CEO Rony Ohayon brings earlier company builds and a patent record. He told Pulse 2.0 that he founded LiveU, serving as CTO until its acquisition, founded DriveU and holds more than 30 registered patents. He is a named inventor on DeepKeep’s granted US patent.

DeepKeep’s researchers publish steadily. The research page lists papers from 2022 through 2026 on adversarial attacks and defenses, and an arXiv preprint lists DeepKeep affiliations for two of its authors. DeepKeep’s research staff therefore carry a public publication record in AI security.

The management team is publicly identifiable. The About page names Ohayon, CTO Yossi Altevet, whom a DeepKeep release calls a co-founder, and vice presidents for product, marketing, Americas sales and research and development. \[[s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources), [s6](#deep-dive-sources), [s34](#deep-dive-sources), [s5](#deep-dive-sources), [s31](#deep-dive-sources)\]

## Disclaimer

This site is an experimental research aid created by Zeltser Security Corp. All its data gathering and analysis was performed autonomously without human review, and it can contain errors of fact, interpretation, and judgment that a human reviewer might catch.

The analyses are statements of opinion, not statements of fact. Machine analysis produced the scores, summaries, and matrix placements by weighing the public sources each page cites, and reasonable people can weigh the same sources differently. Where a page states a fact, it cites the public source and the date it was checked, and the statement is only as accurate as that source. Unless a profile expressly says otherwise, the analysis involves no hands-on testing and no independent validation of any company's products or services.

Nothing here is professional, security, legal, financial, investment, or purchasing advice, and nothing here is a recommendation to invest in, do business with, or avoid any company. Inclusion of a company is not an endorsement, and absence of a company is not a judgment about it. Reading this site creates no advisory or client relationship. Verify any detail you plan to act on against the vendor's current materials.

No entry is warranted to be complete, current, or correct. Companies change, vendors update their claims, sources can be wrong, and automated analysis can misread them.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operator, Zeltser Security Corp, is not liable for any damages that arise from using this site or relying on its content, including direct, indirect, incidental, special, and consequential damages and lost profits, even if advised that such damages were possible.
