Armor vs Prowler Cloud

Armor is a cloud security and compliance service for organizations, with managed detection and response among its offerings. Armor Agent plans cover malware protection, file integrity monitoring, intrusion prevention, vulnerability scanning, and patch monitoring. Its MDR service includes round-the-clock monitoring and triage, threat hunting, and response that can include containment and remediation guidance. The Nexus portal shows investigated threats and actions taken by Armor’s team. Platform capabilities include AI-assisted incident investigation, threat intelligence, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, and response-time tracking. Armor describes integrations with Microsoft and Oracle cloud environments and use with customers’ existing Microsoft security tools. Armor Enterprise Cloud includes controls and audit support for regulated environments, with frameworks such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, SOC 2, NIST CSF, and ISO 27001. Armor Agent Premium costs $99 a month per endpoint, with no endpoint limit. The MDR plan starts at $4,380/month for 500 endpoints, with pricing dependent on coverage and scope.

Prowler Cloud is a managed platform for finding, prioritizing, and fixing cloud security risks. It covers cloud infrastructure, SaaS, Kubernetes, containers, and infrastructure-as-code providers, with scheduled scans and continuous compliance. Prowler says it runs more than 2,500 checks and maps findings to over 70 compliance frameworks. Findings are ranked by severity and include step-by-step remediation guidance; Lighthouse AI can explain fixes. Integrations include Jira, Slack, email alerts, Power BI, API access, and AWS Security Hub. Connected cloud accounts use a read-only role, and Prowler says it does not write to those environments. The pricing note lists a starting price of $79/mo with annual billing; plan details list Prowler Cloud at $99 a month, billed monthly per provider account, GitHub repository, or Microsoft 365 tenant. Annual billing saves 20%. A 15-day free trial and free Apache-2.0 CLI and self-hosted Local Server options are available. Private Cloud pricing is custom and not listed.
