Pillar’s Key Strengths as Reported by Frost & Sullivan

• While many vendors have hastily adapted existing tools to meet the growing demand for AI protection, Pillar has taken a radically different route. It has built its platform from the ground up, guided by a DevSecOps-for-AI philosophy that places security at the core of every phase in the AI lifecycle.
• Pillar leads in AI asset discovery, a critical need as organizations grapple with the rise of shadow AI. Through deep integration with source control, ML Ops, and data infrastructure, Pillar offers unparalleled visibility into models, prompts, and datasets, often surfacing assets that teams didn’t know existed.
• Pillar’s adversarial red teaming capability simulates complex, multi-step threats using both white-box and black-box methodologies. This enables organizations to evaluate how their AI systems might behave under coordinated attacks or adversarial pressure, conditions far closer to real-world threat scenarios.
• The platform’s deployment-phase guardrails take this realism a step further. Designed to be model agnostic and continuously adaptive, these guardrails don’t merely block known prompt injections; they evolve, learning from red teaming results and live usage patterns.
• Pillar has gone to great lengths to ensure its solution is enterprise-ready. Its architecture supports hybrid, cloud, and on-premise deployment, and is backed by SOC 2 Type II certification, robust role-based access controls, and seamless integration with SIEM and compliance systems.
• Clients don’t merely “use” Pillar; they embed it into how they define trust across AI systems. For many, especially those in regulated or high-risk sectors, Pillar is the first solution that delivers both peace of mind and strategic value in securing AI. The pride with which these early adopters describe their experience speaks volumes to the company’s long-term retention prospects.

“To anyone tasked with building an AI security roadmap: the Pillar team would be honored to serve as your partner on that journey,” said Dor Sarig, CEO and co-founder of Pillar Security. “We appreciate the time and care that Frost & Sullivan put into their evaluation of Pillar, which positions us as a trusted guide for enterprises navigating the complex terrain of generative AI risk. Digital trust is not just a differentiator in AI security, but a requirement. We look forward to helping more enterprises lead with confidence and remain resilient in the face of change by shaping not only how AI is secured, but also how it is responsibly deployed and governed.”

According to Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst Claudio Stahnke, another one of Pillar’s defining strengths lies in its price-to-performance value. He stated, “Despite being in the early stages of growth, the company delivers outsized returns through a modular platform architecture that can be implemented rapidly. Customers are not forced into an all-or-nothing deployment; instead, they can target critical lifecycle phases, such as guardrails for runtime protection or red teaming for pre-deployment validation, allowing security investments to scale in tandem with AI maturity."

The Pillar Security platform provides comprehensive protection across the full AI lifecycle and integrates seamlessly into existing workflows. The platform functions as a recursive loop of defense—one that evolves as fast as the systems it protects. Its components don’t exist in silos; they feed into one another, creating a self-reinforcing cycle of insight and protection. This approach has already gained real-world traction, including deployments with Fortune 500 organizations in highly regulated industries.
