Validian is the Leader in Runtime Security because we invented it!
Validian Runtime Security is a runtime-native, data-centric security model—and it’s genuinely different from how most cybersecurity is implemented today.
As security moves into the runtime, Validian Protect leads by securing the applications and the data itself—delivering continuous protection and control at the moment it matters most, even when the networks and devices are otherwise compromised by malware, attackers, malicious insiders and zero-day vulnerabilities.
Artificial Intelligence may identify vulnerabilities. Attackers and malware may weaponize and exploit them. But Validian Runtime Security will still protect applications and data against them.

Tested by independent cybersecurity experts
Validian’s technology has been tested by and used by independent cybersecurity experts for several years who have produced current Independent Test Reports numbering over 170 pages. These Test Reports are available to qualified prospective customers and channel partners.
Why is Runtime Security Important?
Cybersecurity experts announced at the RSAC 2026 Conference that the Runtime is now the primary battleground
- Security vendors emphasize that attacks increasingly happen during execution while systems are running, not just in code or configs.
- when unencrypted data is being used or processed
- This includes things like zero-days, API abuse, and AI-agent behavior that only appears in production
- This requires cybersecurity to move inside the Runtime
Traditional Cybersecurity (Perimeter & Network-Based)
Examples: Firewalls, VPNs, secure web gateways, zero trust network access (ZTNA), Cloud Native Access Point (CNAP)
How they work
- Focus on protecting the network perimeter
- Assume: “If we control access to the network, we protect the data”
- Enforce policies at:
- Network edge
- Identity layer
- Endpoint level
Limitations
- Once inside → data is often exposed
- Encryption is usually:
- Static
- Point-in-time (at rest / in transit)
- Can’t protect against:
- Insider threats
- Credential theft reuse
- Compromised endpoints
But Validian Runtime Security does not replace these traditional cybersecurity approaches – rather it enhances cybersecurity by securing applications and data against vulnerabilities, risks and exposures, which these traditional cybersecurity approaches cannot.
Where ValidianProtect is actually unique
Other “runtime security” vendors are doing things like:
- Monitoring processes (eBPF, agents)
- Detecting threats in containers or workloads
- Seeking to stop exploits in real time
Validian Protect goes a level deeper—at the data layer itself:
- Instead of just watching runtime behavior, it wraps and controls the data directly
- The data remains protected independent of the environment
- Access and permissions can be enforced continuously, even after sharing
That’s a fundamental shift—from perimeter defense to persistent, runtime data protection.
