Hypernative Firewall is a commercial api security tool by Hypernative. Levo Runtime Application Security is a commercial api security tool by Levo. Compare features, ratings, integrations, and community reviews side by side to find the best api security fit for your security stack.
CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Protocol teams and DeFi platforms need Hypernative Firewall because it stops malicious transactions before they execute, not after they drain liquidity. The firewall operates at 7K gas per check, making it economical enough to run on every transaction, and its execution logic analysis catches exploit patterns that simple allowlist filtering misses. Skip this if your organization needs post-incident forensics or cross-chain orchestration; Hypernative prioritizes real-time blocking on a single chain and assumes you can tolerate the operational overhead of managing client-defined rulesets.
Levo Runtime Application Security
Teams building AI-native applications or maintaining sprawling API ecosystems should choose Levo Runtime Application Security because it actually discovers and monitors machine-to-machine traffic that traditional WAFs and API gateways miss. The eBPF-based collection works without agents, and the unified runtime graph connecting APIs, LLMs, and agents gives you visibility into attack surfaces that don't show up in your inventory tools. Skip this if your infrastructure is mostly monolithic, on-prem applications with minimal API footprint; you'll pay for capabilities you don't need.
