Product comparison
Verdictan vs. Humanbound Agent Security
You need to prove that agent defenses still work after models, prompts, tools, and data sources change.
Why Verdictan
Verdictan applies policy at the gateway and records request-level decision evidence for supported AI traffic. Run it in a self-hosted or air-gapped environment.
Key differences
Verdictan vs. Humanbound Agent Security Platform: Key differences
Verdictan governs supported model requests, while Humanbound tests agent endpoints, filters input, and tracks posture over time.
Humanbound attacks an agent before launch
Its black-box campaigns use single-turn, multi-turn, and agentic scenarios against an API endpoint.
The Humanbound Firewall evaluates each input
Four tiers combine sanitization, attack detection, an agent-specific classifier, and an LLM judge.
Posture changes with the deployed agent
Continuous campaigns update findings and a 0-to-100 posture score when models or configurations change.

Common questions
What to ask before you decide
Can Humanbound test any AI agent?
It documents black-box testing for any agent that exposes an API endpoint.
Is Humanbound open source?
Its testing engine, SDK, and firewall are published under Apache-2.0.
Can Humanbound run air-gapped?
Yes. Its local engine supports self-hosted models, including Ollama, without a Humanbound account.
What does the posture score mean?
It reflects current findings from adversarial and behavioral testing and changes as the agent changes.
Could a team use both products?
Yes. Verdictan can govern supported model traffic while Humanbound tests agents and filters their user input.
