Delinea Identity Threat Protection vs Whiteswan Active Directory ITDR & Protection

Delinea Identity Threat Protection monitors identities, their access and behavior to help security teams find and respond to identity threats. It detects misconfigurations and unusual activity across federated and local identities, then maps access pathways through identity systems, SaaS applications, cloud and traditional infrastructure. An AI engine analyzes privileges, account access and activity to produce a risk score and suggested next steps. Response options include removing access, resetting credentials, requiring additional authentication or alerting security operations. The product runs on Delinea’s cloud-native platform and is intended to give Security Operations teams context for investigating and remediating attacks. Delinea says its marketplace includes hundreds of pre-built and customizable integrations; Delinea Platform customers can access it within the platform. Supported platforms include web, Windows, iOS and Android. The product page offers a free 30-day trial, but there is no free plan. Pricing is by quote. Delinea also offers technical support for troubleshooting and support requests.

Whiteswan Active Directory ITDR & Protection is paid software for monitoring and enforcing on-premises identity activity after authentication. Lightweight endpoint agents for Windows and Linux evaluate activity inline against Whiteswan’s policy engine. Listed threats include DCSync, Pass-the-Ticket, Golden Ticket creation, unauthorized LDAP queries, and lateral movement. The platform discovers and maps on-premises service accounts, governs them through policy, and places Active Directory activity in the same decision engine and unified audit trail as other identity surfaces. Whiteswan says deployment requires no changes to the Active Directory schema, forest trusts, or domain controller configuration. It works alongside identity infrastructure including Okta, Microsoft, and AWS. Policy decisions, audit logs, and credentials are encrypted in transit and at rest, with keys managed separately from protected data. Whiteswan says its controls are designed and internally tested against SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 criteria, while clarifying these are not independent certifications. Pricing is on request, and the vendor invites organizations to scope a pilot.
