CyanoRisk API Security Posture Management vs Harness Security Testing Orchestration

CyanoRisk API Security Posture Management is a self-hosted platform for discovering, inventorying, classifying, mapping, and continuously assessing REST, GraphQL, gRPC, and SOAP APIs. It evaluates APIs against the OWASP API Top 10, including authorization, authentication, mass assignment, injection, and resource-consumption weaknesses. The platform identifies shadow and zombie APIs, classifies regulated or confidential data, and flags over-exposure. Its knowledge graph links APIs with applications, databases, identities, gateways, threats, vulnerabilities, tickets, compliance, and business services. Risk scores combine OWASP findings, exposure, data sensitivity, and business dependency. It assesses OAuth, API keys, tokens, scopes, and gateway policies, including rate limiting and throttling. Findings can be assigned to owners and developers with SLAs and closure evidence. CyanoRisk runs on customer infrastructure and networks, under customer keys, with no telemetry or phone-home. CyanoAI analysis stays inside the deployment. Pricing is available on request.

Harness Security Testing Orchestration is a cloud, web service for coordinating application security testing. It brings findings together with deduplication, risk-based prioritization and remediation workflows. Policy gates connect security decisions to workflow controls, while ticketing sync links findings with ticketing processes. Harness lists Essentials and Enterprise plans, both billed through Contact Sales, with pricing on request. Essentials allows up to 500 users, one organization and five custom dashboards. Enterprise lists unlimited users, organizations and custom dashboards. A separate Free Plan is listed at free and includes Harness Open Source, Litmus Chaos and community support, although the pricing model is paid and the free plan field says no. The service runs on the web and uses cloud deployment. Harness was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
