Cyber Chief vs Harness Security Testing Orchestration

Cyber Chief combines security capabilities for applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure and containers. The maker positions it for growth-focused SaaS teams and developers without a dedicated security team. Its Bolt API security capability supports REST, GraphQL and SOAP, and can run scans from CI/CD pipelines. Raider CSPM supports AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform, mapping cloud checks to more than 25 frameworks, including CIS, NIST, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA and GDPR. Packages include recommended vulnerability fixes with code snippets, and in-house AppSec coaches are available on demand. Listed integrations include Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub, GitLab and Jira. Cyber Chief says it does not store customer code; test findings are stored on AWS in a region selected by the customer: US, EU, APAC or India. Its pricing page states ISO 27001 certification and encryption in transit with TLS 1.3 and at rest with AES-256. The 14-day free trial is charged after the trial unless canceled during it. Listed packages are billed annually with a one-year minimum term. Custom Package costs $1,800 a year; Startup Package costs $9,989 a year; Growth Package costs $17,978 a year. Each displayed package lists on-premise integration for a one-time 2500.

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.
