How TigerGate Works
TigerGate provides everything AccuKnox offers, plus comprehensive code security and multi-cloud CSPM—all in one unified platform
1. Runtime Protection (eBPF)
Like AccuKnox's KubeArmor, we use eBPF for runtime monitoring and enforcement. But we extend support to Docker, ECS, VMs, and bare metal—not just Kubernetes.
2. Multi-Cloud CSPM
Unlike AccuKnox's K8s-only focus, TigerGate includes comprehensive CSPM for AWS, GCP, Azure, and Oracle Cloud with 576+ CIS checks and automated remediation.
3. Complete Code Security
TigerGate adds full SAST, SCA, secrets detection, IaC scanning, DAST, and API testing to secure your code before it reaches production.
The TigerGate Advantage
AccuKnox excels at Kubernetes runtime security. TigerGate extends this with multi-cloud CSPM, code scanning, broader platform support, and compliance automation—giving you complete security coverage.
- Similar eBPF runtime protection + multi-cloud CSPM + code security
- Supports K8s, Docker, ECS, bare metal/VMs (not just Kubernetes)
- Transparent pricing starting at $499/month
- Comprehensive AWS/GCP/Azure security (576+ cloud checks)
Why Teams Choose TigerGate Over AccuKnox
Get everything AccuKnox offers plus comprehensive cloud security and code scanning—with transparent pricing
Comprehensive Multi-Cloud CSPM
TigerGate includes full CSPM for AWS, GCP, Azure, and Oracle Cloud with 576+ checks. AccuKnox focuses only on Kubernetes, missing cloud misconfigurations.
Complete Code Security
TigerGate includes SAST, SCA, secrets scanning, IaC analysis, DAST, and API testing. Secure your code before deployment with shift-left security.
Broader Platform Support
TigerGate's eBPF agent runs on Kubernetes, Docker, AWS ECS, and bare metal/VMs. AccuKnox's KubeArmor is Kubernetes-only.
Transparent Pricing
Start at $499/month with clear, predictable pricing. No hidden costs or surprise bills. AccuKnox requires contacting sales for pricing information.
Similar eBPF Runtime Protection
Like KubeArmor, TigerGate uses eBPF for kernel-level visibility and real-time policy enforcement. Detect zero-days and supply chain attacks in production.
Unified Security Platform
One platform for code, cloud, runtime, containers, and compliance. Reduce tool sprawl and integrate security across your entire SDLC and infrastructure.
"We loved AccuKnox's KubeArmor for Kubernetes runtime security, but we needed cloud CSPM and code scanning too. TigerGate gave us similar eBPF runtime protection plus AWS/GCP/Azure security and SAST/SCA scanning—all in one platform. The transparent pricing and broader platform support made the switch easy."
