7AI runs a security operations center. Averil secures the code, cloud and accounts a software team runs on.
7AI investigates and responds to alerts from endpoint, identity, cloud, email and network tools, and offers a managed service for companies without a security team. It doesn’t cover code or deploy platforms, and starts at $50,000 a year. Averil covers code, cloud, identity and deploy platforms at a per-company price, and checks each fix in your live systems.
