Formal Protocol Security is a commercial data access governance solution by Formal. Teleskope Platform is a commercial data security posture management solution by Teleskope. Features, integrations, deployment and the company behind each one, side by side.
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Data-heavy enterprises needing precise AI training data classification
Deployment flexibility is strong: single-tenant SaaS, managed, or fully self-hosted. The self-hosted option is important for organizations with strict data residency requirements. The trade-off is that Teleskope is narrower in scope than Prisma AIRS or Sweet AISP. There is no runtime agent protection, no red teaming, and no MCP security. This is a data security solution for AI environments, not a full AI security platform. Pair it with a runtime protection solution if you need both layers.
