What is TigerGate?

TigerGate is a fully centralised, SaaS-delivered code-to-cloud security platform. Every scanner, every worker, every database runs in TigerGate’s infrastructure. You connect credentials and use the dashboard — there is nothing to deploy for the core platform. Most security tooling is a stack of point products: a SAST scanner here, a cloud-posture scanner there, a runtime agent, a registry scanner, each with its own install, dashboard, user model, and reporting. TigerGate replaces that stack with one centralised platform that owns the full commit-to-runtime loop, with consistent findings, a single inbox, one RBAC model, and one set of compliance reports.
  • Code Security — SAST · SCA · Secrets · IaC across GitHub / GitLab / Bitbucket / Azure DevOps. Scan on every push, gate merges in CI.
  • Container Security — CVEs, malware, and secrets in container images, with SBOM export. Runs against ECR / GCR / ACR / Docker Hub / GHCR.
  • Cloud Security (CSPM) — 1,227 posture checks across AWS / Azure / GCP / OCI / M365 / GitHub / Cloudflare and more, with IAM exposure graphing and 38+ compliance frameworks.
  • Kubernetes Security (KSPM) — CIS/NSA benchmarks, RBAC (KIEM) exposure, admission control, image CVEs, and drift, from one read-only in-cluster agent installed with Helm.
  • AI Pentest (TigerStrike) — LLM-driven black-box pentest. Hosted by default; self-hosted worker for targets behind a VPN.
  • Runtime Agent — TigerGate eBPF sensor streaming process / file / network / privilege events from Kubernetes, a Linux host, or Docker.

Fully centralised by design

Every part of the platform runs in TigerGate’s cloud. You don’t deploy scanners, you don’t manage worker pools, you don’t run a control-plane database, you don’t host a dashboard.

KSPM + runtime agent (optional)Your Kubernetes cluster / Linux hosts — one read-only agent, installed with Helm, for cluster posture, admission control, and eBPF runtime evidence
Self-hosted pentest worker (optional)Your infra — only when the pentest target is behind a VPN and unreachable from the public internet
These customer-side pieces are optional. Most customers run TigerGate as pure SaaS and never install anything. “TigerGate’s cloud” means one region. TigerGate runs as independent regional silos — the US, Europe, and India — each with its own dashboard, API, and databases, and no data crosses between them. Your organization lives in exactly one, chosen when it’s created, and everything you install points at that one region. See Regions.

Why centralised

Nothing to deployNo Helm charts to manage, no scanner version drift, no worker autoscaling problems. The platform always runs the latest checks.
Always up-to-dateNew CIS / CVE / OWASP rules are live the moment we ship them — your scans pick them up on the next run with no upgrade step.
Centralised RBAC, SSO, audit logOne place to grant access, one place to revoke, one place auditors look. SAML / OIDC / SCIM included.
Centralised credential vaultRead-only cloud roles, registry tokens, code-provider PATs, LLM-provider keys — all stored encrypted in one place.
One inbox, one reportFindings from every surface land in the same dashboard with the same severity / status / framework filters. One compliance PDF covers everything.
Predictable costPer-seat or per-asset pricing; no infra to size, no cloud bill to absorb for the platform itself.

What you’ll need

  • A TigerGate dashboard account with permission to create API keys. Sign in on the dashboard of the region your organization is in — app.tigergate.dev for us1, the default.
  • Whatever credentials match the surface you’re scanning — a GitHub PAT for code, an AWS read-only role for cloud posture, a registry token for images, a target URL for pentest. All credentials are encrypted at rest in the SaaS vault.
  • No infrastructure to provision. The optional in-customer pieces — the Helm-installed KSPM / runtime agent, and the self-hosted pentest worker — each have their own setup pages and aren’t required for the core product.
