Cloud security with AI added vs. AI security by design.
Wiz built a great cloud security platform and extended it with AI-APP. STACK Vault was built for AI from day one — identity, runtime defense, agent governance, and compliance as one product, sized for SMB through enterprise with first-class MSP delivery.
What each one is built for
STACK Vault
AI-first security platform. Identity for AI agents, runtime defense for LLM endpoints, governance for multi-agent workflows, compliance evidence for AI-specific frameworks (NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act). MSP-deliverable, SMB-priced, enterprise-scalable.
Wiz AI-APP
AI security extension of the Wiz cloud security platform. Strong at AI asset discovery, model inventory, and runtime context if you already run Wiz across your cloud estate.
Together
Run Wiz for cloud posture and STACK Vault for the AI-specific layer above it — identity, runtime defense, and AI-framework compliance evidence. Many teams do.
Where each one wins
Agent identity primitives
STACK Vault. Verifiable agent identities, scoped capabilities, signed audit lineage. Wiz catalogs AI assets; identity is not the primary primitive.
Runtime LLM defense
STACK Vault (Shield). Prompt injection, jailbreak, and indirect-attack blocking at the request boundary. Wiz observes risk; STACK Vault blocks at runtime.
Broad cloud posture management
Wiz leads. CSPM, CNAPP, container, and cloud workload security — well outside STACK Vault scope. Use Wiz for that.
MSP & multi-tenant for AI security
STACK Vault. Built multi-tenant; MSP partner program. Wiz is built for in-house cloud security teams; AI multi-tenancy is not its primary positioning.
Common questions
We already run Wiz. Do we need STACK Vault?
Wiz will tell you which AI models exist in your cloud. STACK Vault decides which agents can act on what, blocks malicious requests, and signs evidence into a compliance trail. Different jobs.
Can STACK Vault replace Wiz?
No — STACK Vault is not a CNAPP. If you do not have cloud posture covered, keep using Wiz (or equivalent) for that and add STACK Vault for the AI layer.
What if our AI runs outside the cloud (on-prem, edge)?
STACK Vault works wherever the LLM endpoint is — cloud, on-prem, air-gapped. Wiz AI-APP is cloud-scope by design.
We are an MSP. Can we deliver STACK Vault per customer?
Yes — tenant-isolated workspaces, per-tenant billing, MSP console. Wiz delivery model is built for end-customer in-house teams.
