Validian Runtime Security
Beyond Zero Trust


Validian’s unique Runtime Security Software, ValidianProtect, is a powerful, flexible, scaleable and rapidly integrated cybersecurity middleware. It quickly builds, deploys and manages Trusted Distributed Applications on centralized or decentralized networks. This seals the application and the data within, protecting it from threats.

ValidianProtectTM product line

The Application & Data Protection Platform protects against network-borne vulnerabilities such as intrusion, impersonation and interception. It also protects unencrypted data in use and when being processed. You can rapidly integrate it into new or existing applications and race to market. Then, change the way you protect yourself on the fly.

The Data Protection Module protects against host-borne vulnerabilities such as memory-scanning and file system scanning. It also provides ready-built capabilities such as flexible control over usage and retraction of data. It offers immediate alerts on the permitted usage, and on the attempted prohibited usage of data.

The Confidential Application Tool Kit comprising a set of programming tools and Software Development Kits (SDKs) that integrate the platform and module within the target application. You can build quickly and with confidence using a robust and competitive set of features and capabilities.

Integrated Multi-Factor Authentication (IMFA) uses ten identifying factors, not just 2 or 3 or 4, to mutually authenticate each designated user for each designated web or compiled application for each designated device accessing each designated browser where a browser is used, over secure channels.

But Validian IMFA is not just “more factors”—it’s a runtime-integrated, multi-entity authentication model.

Instead of only verifying a user, IMFA simultaneously authenticates:

  • The user
  • The device
  • The application instance
  • The browser (if used)
  • The communication channel
  • Potentially multiple identity factors (up to ~10)

All of these are cryptographically bound together and verified continuously at runtime, not just at login.

What Traditional MFA Does

Traditional Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is designed to verify identity at login using 2+ factors such as:

  • Password (something you know)
  • Phone / token (something you have)
  • Biometrics (something you are)

It’s essentially: “Prove you are who you say you are.”

Even advanced MFA (adaptive/risk-based) still primarily focuses on user identity validation, often at session start, not continuously.

Validian Runtime Browser Session Security

Browsers are web applications. The browser session is now a primary attack surface. Securing it is essential to completing a Zero Trust architecture.

However, modern cybersecurity tools focus on securing access to applications—but not what happens after login. Today’s attackers exploit this gap by hijacking sessions, stealing tokens, and operating inside trusted browser activity. Network, endpoint, and identity solutions stop at authentication. They lack visibility and control within live browser sessions.

ValidianProtect secures the browser session at runtime, applying protection directly inside active sessions across any browser environment with:

  • Session integrity protection
  • Token theft prevention
  • In-browser threat mitigation
  • Works on unmanaged and public devices

Traditional tools secure access. ValidianProtect secures what happens after access is granted.

Building blocks for security

Validian has used its ValidianProtect software to build a suite of Anti-Phishing, Anti-Ransomware & Data Protection modules and solutions, which can also be used in combinations to create other ValidianProtect solutions. These have been used to create the following secure solutions.

Guardian Secure Messaging

Most popular messaging platforms—including SMS, WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and others—offer varying degrees of security. SMS, however, is inherently insecure and widely recognized by authorities as vulnerable. While end-to-end encrypted apps such as WhatsApp, Signal, and Wickr protect the transfer of messages against interception, they do not protect the use of the unencrypted messages when they are created, edited, read or shared. Endpoint compromise, device-level malware, or insider threats can undermine security, regardless of encryption or MFA.  They were originally designed for consumer use. As such, they do not comply with the central rule of enterprise or government networks: control over who can access data and what actions recipients can take with it. Once data is transmitted via these consumer-targeted apps, the sender has no control over it, and the recipient maintains complete control for as long as the data exists on their device.

Validian Guardian App addresses these gaps by providing enterprise-grade control over secure communications:

  • IMFA for integrated device, app, and user authentication
  • Secure transport and storage with extended end-to-end encryption using dynamically changing encryption algorithms and encryption keys
  • Secure Use of unencrypted messages and data
  • Granular data usage controls allowing administrators to define access, copy, forward, or retention policies
  • Dynamic key-based credentials and scheduled key rotation for ongoing security assurance
  • High-performance transfer exceeding SFTP, SMS, and conventional texting in speed and reliability
  • Guardian’s modular design supports rapid adaptation to regulatory or sector-specific requirements, such as HIPAA compliance or protection of sensitive entertainment assets.

ValidianProtected Microsoft Outlook Email

All email platforms—including Outlook, Gmail, AOL, Yahoo, and others—remain vulnerable to cyberattacks such as phishing and ransomware (Forbes, February–March 2025; FBI Reports, Q1 2025 – The Hill, March 2025). Microsoft Outlook, with its dominant enterprise market share, is a frequent vector for these attacks.

Validian addresses this risk with a transparent, virtual Add-In for Microsoft Outlook, combined with a Validian Sandbox. Instead of scanning, detecting, or cleaning malware like traditional anti-virus software, Validian prevents malware from ever interacting with the operating system or other applications:

Sandbox containment: All files, attachments, and emails opened in Validian Outlook remain inside a secure sandbox. This prevents any malicious code from activating or spreading, eliminating the need for scanning or detection.

Email and attachment encryption: The Add-In enables automatic encryption of emails and attachments, ensuring that sensitive data remains secure in transit and at rest, without requiring any additional configuration.

User interaction: Users can safely open, read, and work with files entirely within the sandbox environment.

Optional release: If a user wants to move a file out of the sandbox, the content can be copied and then pasted outside the Sandbox to then use the content and document without the ransomware or other malware or viruses. Thereafter, it interacts with the native application and operating system normally. At this point, traditional anti-virus protections apply, and Validian no longer controls the risk. Key distinction: The primary purpose of ValidianProtected Outlook is to serve as a failsafe, ensuring that malicious code cannot compromise the system while the email or attachment is being accessed, while also providing encryption for secure communications.
