Pathlock

Platform Architecture

A modern, unified platform built from the ground up for a cohesive experience.

A patchwork of acquired technologies that do not integrate well together.

Integrations

Deep, seamless integrations for cloud, on-premises, and homegrown apps (e.g., Oracle, AWS, Okta, etc.).

Strong, but limited to legacy enterprise apps like SAP and Oracle; lacks a modern connector model.

Time to Value

Live in weeks, not quarters. No heavy professional services required.

Difficult and complicated to deploy; requires significant professional services.

Extensability

Modern API, CLI, webhooks, and Terraform support for full extensibility.

Limited extensibility; not built for a modern tech stack.

User Experience

Intuitive UI and seamless experience for all users (web, Slack, MS Teams, CLI).

Legacy, complex UI not designed for end users.

Top 5 reasons security leaders prefer C1

Time to value

“The biggest ROI we have seen is in time. We have communicated to leadership and management our estimates and I'm very confident that the tool pays for itself.”

Robert Mateo, VP of IT Business Operations

Full visibility and control

“A huge win for me is the overall visibility. I don’t have to log into ten different places to figure out who has access to what – I can just go to C1.”

Paul Yoo, Head of Security Platform

Simple, intuitive design

“One day you requested AWS access through IT tickets. The next day you didn’t. We didn’t have to roll it out in stages — just a clean cutover.”

Stephen Darling, Staff Infrastructure Engineer

Committed to innovation

“None of the other options in the market were simple for us. C1 was incredibly inquisitive, collaborative, iterative, and innovative.”

Tim Lisko, Director of Product and Infrastructure Security

Real security impact

“We’ve appreciably improved our security posture without spending a bunch of time and money, which is a huge benefit for our customers.”

Matthew Sullivan, Infrastructure Security Team Leader
