Waratek

Waratek focuses on a specific problem in application security: stopping vulnerable behavior when software is actually running. Its platform places a security agent inside Java applications so potentially dangerous operations can be identified in context rather than relying only on perimeter controls or waiting for a patch. Waratek combines runtime application self-protection with tools for finding exploitable weaknesses before code reaches production. The company positions this approach for teams dealing with fast release cycles, legacy Java estates, and modern applications that may contain unknown or newly discovered flaws. Its management portal gives security teams a central place to manage agents, create policies, and review security events. The result is a practical layer between application code and live exploitation, helping organizations reduce exposure without depending entirely on lengthy remediation cycles. This makes runtime context central to the company’s approach, giving security teams another layer of protection between application code and active exploitation.
