## Executive Summary

Native Security sells enterprises software that enforces security policy through the controls built into AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud. A security team states a rule once, and Native translates it into each provider's controls, testing it on past activity first. AWS and Check Point cloud security veterans founded it in 2024, and CTech reported 41 employees. It has raised $42 million, and Ballistic Ventures led its Series A. Its named customers are Renaissance Learning and Monolithic Power Systems, and Native says it works with Fortune 100 companies. It competes on that translation, selling through AWS Security Hub and AWS Marketplace. Native says AWS plans to extend Security Hub to other clouds, and if that extension adds enforcement, AWS could offer part of what Native sells.

## Market Readiness

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

**Established (26/40)**

Analyzed 2026-09-22. Scope: whole company.

| Dimension | Score | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Problem Clarity | 3/5 | Native names a clear buyer and problem, enterprise teams that find the providers' built-in security controls complex to apply consistently, and CTech describes that gap in its own reporting, especially across clouds with different identity and policy models. The one quantified figure, Mandiant’s finding that time-to-exploit fell to minus one day in 2024, reaches readers through Native’s own launch statements, so the pain is independently described but not independently quantified. \[[s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s12](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Capability Depth | 3/5 | Native’s platform and Google Cloud pages detail the pipeline, from a live topology of accounts and identities to replaying 90 days of Cloud Audit Logs against a proposed control, and its Wiz page lists the read-only permissions the integration uses. All of it is Native’s own material, and the TAG analysis it hosts models return on investment rather than testing the product, so no cited source supplies the external technical validation the next rung needs. \[[s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s18](#profile-analysis-sources), [s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s21](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Market Timing | 3/5 | The enabler is attacker speed, with Native citing Mandiant’s finding that time-to-exploit fell to minus one day in 2024. Native’s own demand signals are its AWS Security Hub Extended availability and its claim of sevenfold growth in enterprise customers. GeekWire covered the stealth exit, which is press interest rather than several independent kinds of buyer-side signal. \[[s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s12](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources), [s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s9](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Team Credibility | 4/5 | CTech, GeekWire and ynetnews state in their own reporting that Amit Megiddo led Amazon GuardDuty, that Gal Ordo led or worked on AWS Security Hub, and that Eyal Faingold led cloud security at Check Point, so several named in-domain product builds are independently evidenced. No founder exit appears in the cited record, which keeps the team below a category-defining track record. \[[s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s9](#profile-analysis-sources), [s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s24](#profile-analysis-sources), [s13](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| GTM Proof | 4/5 | Native names two customers with executive testimony, Renaissance Learning, whose CSO and CIO describes the product in a Native video, and Monolithic Power Systems, whose head of IT infrastructure and security is quoted on its homepage. AWS Marketplace lists Native on a 12-month contract. That is multiple named references plus marketplace motion. The sevenfold growth figure is Native's own newswire claim, so scale is not independently confirmed. \[[s29](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s26](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Funding Efficiency | 3/5 | CTech reports $42 million raised in total, an $11 million seed and a $31 million Series A led by Ballistic Ventures, for a company founded in 2024 with 41 employees at the time, which is proportional to its stage. Native has shipped visibly since, including AWS Security Hub Extended availability and Wiz and Cyera integrations, but discloses no revenue or margin, so efficiency is unconfirmed. \[[s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources), [s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s27](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Category Clarity | 3/5 | Native sells what GeekWire calls, in the company’s words, a control plane for cloud security. ISMG places it against CNAPP and CSPM tools only through Megiddo’s own contrast, and Native’s ranking of preventive cloud security vendors is, by its own statement, Native’s read of the field, so buyers still need the vendor’s explanation to place it. \[[s9](#profile-analysis-sources), [s24](#profile-analysis-sources), [s22](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |
| Incumbent Defensibility | 3/5 | Translating one intent into four providers' control systems and simulating each change against audit logs is engineering a posture vendor or a single provider would have to build, which is real friction to absorption. Native’s blog reports that AWS announced Security Hub will extend to multicloud, and the cited record shows no data flywheel or procurement lock that bundling could not eventually replicate. \[[s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s18](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources), [s17](#profile-analysis-sources)\] |

### Business Risks

- Native’s blog reports that AWS announced Security Hub itself will extend to multicloud. If that extension adds preventive enforcement across clouds, AWS could serve part of the multi-cloud case Native now sells inside the same AWS program.
- Wiz integrates with Native today, and Native’s own FAQ asks how Native differs from Wiz, Orca and Prisma Cloud. A posture platform that adds simulated preventive enforcement would compete for the budget Native is trying to claim.
- Native’s Fortune 100 and sevenfold customer-growth figures are its own statements. If further customers do not appear by name, buyers will have little outside evidence to weigh against the company’s claims of enterprise scale.
- Native deploys guardrails as each provider’s own policies through Terraform, Config Connector or its console. If customers treat it as a one-time hardening project, renewal would depend on drift tracking and coverage of new services, and the cited record does not describe what happens to installed policies when a customer leaves.

### Problem & Market

Native targets enterprises that run security across several clouds. CTech reports that cloud providers offer advanced native security mechanisms but that applying them consistently is complex and operationally sensitive, and harder across providers that each use different identity and policy models.

Native frames the fix as prevention built from the providers' own controls. Its homepage argues that the industry has gotten good at finding cloud risk and now needs to build defenses, and its announcement adds that visibility alone cannot keep pace as AI agents, machine identities and cloud services multiply.

Native supplies the quantified urgency. Ynetnews relays Native’s citation of Mandiant data showing average time to exploit fell to minus one day in 2024, the same figure Native’s launch release carries, so the pain figure is outside research that the vendor selected. \[[s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources), [s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s12](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Product Capabilities

Native turns stated security outcomes into each provider’s own controls. A team tells Native what it wants enforced in plain language, Native maps a live topology of accounts, workloads and identities, then compiles the outcome into controls such as Google Cloud Organization Policies and VPC Service Controls and keeps them aligned as the estate changes.

Simulation and staged rollout address the risk of enforcing controls in production. Native’s Google Cloud page describes replaying 90 days of Cloud Audit Logs against a proposed control, and a customer story describes a rollout that follows the AWS organization tree from test to staging to production.

The same model extends to AI and to other security tools. Native markets guardrails that define what AI agents can reach, run on and train on, enforced from outside the agent, and its integrations bring Wiz findings and Cyera data classifications into its policies. \[[s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s18](#profile-analysis-sources), [s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s27](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Competitive Positioning

Native positions itself against detection-first cloud security. ISMG reports Megiddo contrasting Native’s enforcement with CNAPP and CSPM tools that mainly provide visibility, and Native’s platform FAQ asks how Native differs from Wiz, Orca and Prisma Cloud.

Native publishes its own ranking of preventive cloud security vendors. It places itself at rank one, ahead of P0 Security and Britive, which it describes as acting on access at request time, and of broad CNAPP suites such as Wiz and Check Point CloudGuard. The page states that the ranking is Native’s read of the field.

Native integrates with Wiz and distributes through AWS, while both could also compete with it. Wiz findings feed Native through an integration, and Native’s blog reports that AWS announced Security Hub will extend to multicloud, while Native supplies multicloud enforcement inside AWS Security Hub Extended today. \[[s24](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources), [s22](#profile-analysis-sources), [s17](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Go-to-Market & Traction

Native names two customers through its own pages. Renaissance Learning’s CSO and CIO, Drew Robertson, describes in a Native video how the product solved his team’s policy management problems, and Monolithic Power Systems' head of global IT infrastructure and security is quoted under the customers page’s testimonial heading. Native also publishes unnamed stories about a global chip manufacturer and a veterinary service provider.

Native’s larger traction claims are its own. The company says, in CTech and ynetnews coverage, that Fortune 100 organizations in finance, technology and media use the product. Ballistic, its lead investor, describes deployments at a large streaming service and a top chip manufacturer, and Native’s release claims its enterprise customer base grew more than sevenfold over the prior year.

Distribution runs through the cloud providers. AWS customers can activate Native through AWS Security Hub Extended with a 30-day free trial, AWS Marketplace lists it on a contract, and Native’s release says it is also available through Google Cloud Marketplace. \[[s29](#profile-analysis-sources), [s1](#profile-analysis-sources), [s14](#profile-analysis-sources), [s15](#profile-analysis-sources), [s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s13](#profile-analysis-sources), [s19](#profile-analysis-sources), [s5](#profile-analysis-sources), [s26](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Team & Credibility

The founders led cloud security products at AWS and Check Point. CTech, GeekWire and ynetnews report that Amit Megiddo led Amazon GuardDuty, that Gal Ordo led or worked on AWS Security Hub, and that Eyal Faingold led cloud security at Check Point.

Senior backers surround the company. Phil Venables, former chief information security officer of Google Cloud and a venture partner at Ballistic Ventures, joined the board, and CTech lists Dome9 founder Zohar Alon, Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt and CyberArk founder Udi Mokady among investors and advisors. \[[s8](#profile-analysis-sources), [s9](#profile-analysis-sources), [s25](#profile-analysis-sources), [s13](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Trust Readiness

Native publishes the trust collateral enterprise procurement asks for. Its SafeBase trust center lists SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001 alongside CCPA, GDPR, HIPAA and CIS Controls 8.1, and it offers a SOC 2 report, a pentest report and an SBOM.

The operational trust argument is simulation before enforcement. Because Native changes organization-level policy, its customer stories describe testing each policy against historical CloudTrail activity before enforcing, and its platform page says engineers learn immediately when a guardrail fires and why. \[[s7](#profile-analysis-sources), [s16](#profile-analysis-sources), [s2](#profile-analysis-sources)\]

### Competitors

| Company | Relationship | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Wiz | competes with | Native’s FAQ and vendor ranking both position Native against it, and Native also integrates its findings. |

| Palo Alto Networks | competes with | Prisma Cloud is named in Native’s platform FAQ among the posture platforms Native says it differs from. |
| Sonrai Security | competes with | Competes for cloud security teams that want preventive, organization-level enforcement in their cloud accounts. |
| Britive | competes with | Native’s ranking of preventive cloud security vendors lists it as an access-focused alternative. |

## 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 (13/21)**

Band guidance: reinforce or reposition. Analyzed 2026-09-22. Scope: whole company.

Native Security’s main asset is its engineering. The product keeps one security intent equivalent across four providers' control systems and replays months of audit logs to predict what each change would block. Its founders led AWS GuardDuty, AWS Security Hub and Check Point’s cloud security work, adjacent to what Native builds. Exception management and integrations that bring Wiz and Cyera findings into its policies add friction for a customer who leaves. Native markets its simulation as patented. A funded rival could rebuild the approach with time. What Native holds today is that engineering plus distribution through AWS Security Hub Extended and AWS Marketplace.

| Dimension | Score | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Value Delivery | 1/3 | Native sells a platform the customer’s security team directs, defining guardrails in plain language, reviewing their simulated impact and deploying them, which is software as the product. The customer stories credit Native with the provider-specific engineering while the customer’s team makes the architectural decisions, and no cited page offers a managed service that accepts accountability for outcomes. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Switching Cost | 2/3 | Exception management, drift tracking and integrations that feed Wiz findings and Cyera classifications into Native’s policies build meaningful friction from integrations and learned workflows. Native deploys its guardrails as each provider’s own policies through Terraform, Config Connector or its console, so the switching mechanism is documented while the cited record does not size the migration or describe what happens to installed policies at exit. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s17](#deep-dive-sources), [s27](#deep-dive-sources), [s18](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Compliance Moat | 1/3 | Native’s trust center lists SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001 with a SOC 2 report and pentest report, attestations a funded competitor can obtain through ordinary audit preparation. No cited source shows a product-specific authorization or mandate that would block replacing Native. \[[s7](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Problem Complexity | 3/3 | Native translates one intent across four providers' policy systems and replays 90 days of audit logs to predict what each change would block, which requires specialized multi-provider engineering. A customer story adds Amazon Bedrock models mapping one cloud’s controls to their objectives before Native compiles them for another. \[[s22](#deep-dive-sources), [s18](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Buyer Profile | 3/3 | Native states that Fortune 100 organizations in finance, technology and media use the product and names payments, investment management and healthcare among its customers' industries, and GeekWire reports Fortune 100 enterprises as customers. Its stories add a veterinary provider handling billing and patient information and a Renaissance Learning video about protecting student data, so the product’s evidenced buyers include regulated enterprises. \[[s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources), [s9](#deep-dive-sources), [s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s29](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Layer | 2/3 | Native maps a customer's cloud estate, turns a stated outcome into provider-native controls, simulates the impact and deploys and maintains those controls. The enforcement itself runs in AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and OCI primitives, and applications depend on those provider controls rather than on Native at runtime. That is a platform with application features. Its organization-level guardrails sit close to infrastructure, but no application traffic or execution passes through Native. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s26](#deep-dive-sources), [s18](#deep-dive-sources)\] |
| Proprietary Data, Content, or IP | 1/3 | Native’s Google Cloud page labels its audit-log replay simulation patented, but no granted patent or patent record appears in the cited record, so the IP claim is vendor-asserted. The topology Native builds maps each customer’s own estate, and no cited source names a dataset, licensed content or cross-customer corpus Native retains, so the record evidences no retained proprietary asset. \[[s18](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources)\] |

### Strategic Market Segmentation

Native sells to enterprises whose estates span several clouds. The company says it serves Fortune 100 enterprises, fast-growing technology companies and regulated institutions, and its release names payments, media, semiconductors and AI cloud infrastructure among its customers' industries.

Its customer stories show the product in use by small security teams. A global chip manufacturer rolled out AWS guardrails with a single cloud security engineer, and a veterinary service provider with more than 100 locations ran Native with a small team that owned cloud security alongside other duties.

Native pitches leverage for those small teams. Its blog says one cloud security engineer, or a small team, gets the leverage of top security architects, and the AWS Security Hub Extended route adds pay-as-you-go buying inside the AWS console. \[[s5](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources), [s16](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Product Capabilities & AI Advantages

Native’s mechanism reads the same across its pages and press coverage. Teams state an outcome, and Native maps the estate, compiles the outcome into each provider’s controls, simulates the effect against real cloud activity, deploys and keeps the controls aligned. CTech describes the same enforcement layer working through the providers' own mechanisms rather than adding monitoring.

AI appears in two roles. A customer story describes Amazon Bedrock models mapping a company’s Azure controls to their underlying objectives before Native compiled them into AWS enforcement. Native also sells guardrails that set what AI agents can reach, run on and train on, including which Vertex AI models agents can call on Google Cloud.

The evidence of depth is Native’s own material. Its Google Cloud page describes replaying 90 days of Cloud Audit Logs against a proposed control and labels that simulation patented. The TAG analysis it offers behind a download form models the economics of enforcement rather than testing the product. \[[s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources), [s18](#deep-dive-sources), [s21](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Sales Engagement & Go-to-Market

Native reaches buyers through the cloud providers as well as directly. AWS customers can activate Native through AWS Security Hub Extended inside the AWS console, on the AWS bill and with a 30-day free trial. Native’s blog says AWS picked two vendors for the cloud security category there.

Native’s release says it is also available through Google Cloud Marketplace and counts six partner integrations across the four clouds. Its partners page recruits resellers, MSPs and consultancies with deal registration and co-selling, and invites technology partners into joint go-to-market.

Named customer evidence comes from Native’s own pages. Renaissance Learning and Monolithic Power Systems appear through testimonials, and the company’s Fortune 100 and sevenfold-growth figures reach readers through press that relays them and through Native’s own release. \[[s5](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources), [s6](#deep-dive-sources), [s29](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s25](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Pricing Model

Native’s public price point is its AWS Marketplace listing. The listing says pricing follows the duration and terms of a contract with the vendor, and its 12-month contract table shows $1,000,000 for the Native dimension.

The AWS Security Hub Extended route adds pay-as-you-go pricing on the AWS bill with a 30-day free trial, so a buyer can start without a separate procurement cycle.

Native offers a TAG cost model for enforcing requirements in cloud architecture. Its platform page describes savings from consolidating overlapping CSPM, CWPP and CIEM licenses in a modeled multi-cloud enterprise. \[[s26](#deep-dive-sources), [s5](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s21](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Product Delivery & Operations

Native deploys enforcement as each provider’s own policies. On Google Cloud it pushes controls through Terraform, Config Connector, gcloud or its console with rollback built in, and on AWS it enforces through AWS Organizations.

Rollout safety is part of delivery. The veterinary provider’s story describes simulating each policy against historical CloudTrail activity and rolling it out from test to staging to production. It also shows teams which actions a policy blocked and why.

Native’s own service commitments appear in its trust center. Native’s trust center lists a four-hour recovery time objective among its risk-profile entries. \[[s18](#deep-dive-sources), [s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s7](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Earning Customers' Trust

Native’s trust center lists SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001 alongside CCPA, GDPR, HIPAA and CIS Controls 8.1. It offers a SOC 2 report, a pentest report, a privacy whitepaper and an SBOM.

The product’s design carries a second trust argument. Native changes organization-level policy, which can block legitimate work, so it simulates each guardrail against real activity, rolls out in stages, and tells engineers when a guardrail fires and why.

Renaissance Learning’s CSO and CIO appears in a Native video, and Monolithic Power Systems' head of IT infrastructure and security is quoted on the homepage. The chip manufacturer and veterinary provider in Native’s case studies are unnamed. \[[s7](#deep-dive-sources), [s2](#deep-dive-sources), [s16](#deep-dive-sources), [s29](#deep-dive-sources), [s1](#deep-dive-sources), [s15](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Platform Strategy & Ecosystem Positioning

Native builds on the cloud providers' own controls. It compiles one intent into AWS Service Control Policies, Azure Policy, Google Cloud Organization Policy, VPC Service Controls and OCI Security Zones. Native also runs partner programs for providers, resellers and technology vendors.

Security vendors now feed Native as well. Its Wiz integration reads Wiz findings through a service account and never writes back, and its Cyera integration turns Cyera’s data classifications into enforced perimeters.

Native frames AWS Security Hub Extended as the start of a platform assembled from specialist vendors. Its blog says visibility and detection across that program flow into Native, which then enforces. \[[s22](#deep-dive-sources), [s6](#deep-dive-sources), [s17](#deep-dive-sources), [s27](#deep-dive-sources), [s5](#deep-dive-sources)\]

### Team & Execution Capability

The founders led cloud security products at AWS and Check Point. CTech, GeekWire and ynetnews report that Amit Megiddo led Amazon GuardDuty, that Gal Ordo led or worked on AWS Security Hub, and that Eyal Faingold led cloud security at Check Point. Ballistic’s post adds that Faingold was VP of R&D at Dome9 before that.

The team was small at launch and is growing. CTech reported 41 employees across Israel, the UK and the US, with plans to reach about 90 by the end of 2026, and ISMG put the count at 38. Native says it has hired engineers and architects from Paramount, Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, Cyera, Wiz and Check Point.

Phil Venables, former chief information security officer of Google Cloud and a venture partner at Ballistic Ventures, joined the board. CTech lists Dome9 founder Zohar Alon, Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt and CyberArk founder Udi Mokady among investors and advisors. \[[s8](#deep-dive-sources), [s9](#deep-dive-sources), [s25](#deep-dive-sources), [s13](#deep-dive-sources), [s24](#deep-dive-sources), [s19](#deep-dive-sources)\]

## 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.

The content is provided "as is" and "as available," with all warranties disclaimed, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. 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. If you are dissatisfied with the site or disagree with these terms, your remedy is to stop using it.

Entries link to vendor pages, press coverage, and other external sites that Zeltser Security Corp does not control and is not responsible for. A link is not an affiliation with the destination or an endorsement of it. Product and company names and trademarks are the property of their owners, used here nominatively to identify the companies described.
