Compare
Where the existing stack stops.
Skipr does not replace identity, access, network or logging tooling. It governs the moment those tools hand off — the execution itself. Each comparison states plainly what the incumbent does well, where its control ends, and what Skipr adds at runtime. See also the learning library and FAQ.
- Compare · GovernanceAI governance and runtime governanceAI governance decides and documents what should be allowed. Runtime governance enforces it in the path of the action and proves the outcome. Both are needed.
- Compare · IAMSkipr and identity and access managementIAM establishes who a principal is and what they may reach. Skipr decides whether a specific action may execute right now, and proves it.
- Compare · PAMSkipr and privileged access managementPAM controls privileged sessions and credentials for administrators. Skipr governs every action — human, agent, application or machine — at runtime.
- Compare · ZTNASkipr and zero trust network accessZTNA decides whether a principal may connect to a resource. Skipr decides whether the action taken over that connection may execute, and proves it.
- Compare · GuardrailsSkipr and AI guardrailsGuardrails shape what a model produces. Skipr decides what a system is permitted to do with that output, and records the decision.
- Compare · SovereigntySovereign AI and sovereign cloudSovereign cloud governs where infrastructure runs and who operates it. Sovereign AI governs what intelligence is permitted to do while it runs.
