- SaaS1
- Status
- Active1
- Compliance
- SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 270012 (company-level, see Methodology)
Matrix Coverage
Where this product defends, by asset class and NIST CSF function. The Coverage column shows whether each asset is Primary, Secondary, or Adjacent to what the product does. The table omits empty rows and columns.
| Asset class | Protect | Detect | Coverage | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Runtime AI Data | Primary | 1 | ||
| AI Agent Identities | Detect: Not covered | Secondary | 1 |
Framework Relevance
These frameworks include controls relevant to the asset classes Protecto defends. This is an editorial inference from the AI Defense Matrix asset-level crossmap, not a statement that Protecto implements these controls or is certified against them.
