Hoop.dev is an infrastructure access governance platform that functions as a single gateway between engineers, AI agents, and production environments. The platform governs access across databases, Kubernetes clusters, cloud accounts, and other infrastructure protocols, providing security and compliance controls without requiring schema changes or application rewrites. Core capabilities include: - Data Masking: Redacts PII, credentials, and financial data in real time before it is returned to the requester, operating across all supported protocols - Guardrails: Blocks destructive commands (e.g., DROP TABLE, rm -rf) before execution at the gateway level - AI Analysis: Classifies sessions by risk using AI, flagging anomalous access patterns automatically - Command Approval: Routes risky commands through approval workflows integrated with Slack, Jira, and Microsoft Teams - MCP Gateway: A dedicated gateway for AI agent access to production systems - Runbooks: Automated execution of operational scripts with access controls The platform targets engineering and security teams, particularly in regulated industries such as fintech, healthtech, and public companies. It generates immutable audit trails mapped to compliance controls (SOC 2, GDPR, PCI), and provides a compliance dashboard for auditors. Hoop.dev is open source, a CNCF member, and holds SOC 2 Type II certification. The product is available as a self-hosted or managed deployment. Customer references include EBANX, PicPay, RD Station, Unico, and Dock, which are primarily Latin American technology companies.
