Question 1

What does KollGuard do?

Accepted Answer

KollGuard is the compliance layer for the AI frontier. It connects read-only to your code, databases (Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, MongoDB, DynamoDB), AWS cloud accounts, web apps, and the AI agents you run, scans all six surfaces for security gaps, and maps every finding to the controls auditors check across 15+ frameworks — SOC 2, HIPAA, the EU AI Act and more. It also governs both your software agents and physical AI (robots, drones), and its own AI agent (KGAI) doesn't just flag gaps — it proposes and applies fixes with a full audit trail and even surfaces grants and cloud credits to fund the work. The first scan is free and takes minutes.

Question 2

Does KollGuard cover physical AI and robots?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beyond software agents, KollGuard extends governance to physical and embodied AI — robots, cobots, autonomous mobile robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles — mapping them to the EU Machinery Regulation alongside the EU AI Act and ISO 42001. As AI leaves the screen and moves into the physical world, KollGuard is built to keep pace: continuous, provable governance across software and physical AI in one platform.

Question 3

Which compliance frameworks does KollGuard support?

Accepted Answer

More than fifteen. SOC 2 and HIPAA are asserted directly from the technical checks; ISO 27001, ISO 27701, PCI DSS v4.0, GDPR, NIST CSF 2.0, NIST 800-53 (the basis for NIST 800-171 and CMMC), HITRUST CSF, CIS Controls v8 and the Joint Commission (JCAHO) standards are crosswalked from the same checks; and KollGuard adds the AI-governance standards ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF and the EU AI Act, plus post-quantum (PQC) readiness. One scan reports against all of them at once.

Question 4

Does KollGuard help with the EU AI Act and AI governance?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this is what sets KollGuard apart from Vanta, Drata and Secureframe. It continuously monitors the AI agents you deploy and turns their live activity into evidence for ISO 42001, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and the EU AI Act's high-risk obligations (risk management, automatic logging, human oversight, robustness, post-market monitoring). You govern each agent with an autonomy policy (observe, approve, or act-within-policy), an approval inbox, and a master kill switch, and every action is recorded in a tamper-evident hash-chained audit log.

Question 5

Which industries is KollGuard for?

Accepted Answer

KollGuard serves AI/ML companies (EU AI Act, ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF), SaaS and B2B tech (SOC 2, ISO 27001), healthcare and health-tech (HIPAA, HITRUST, JCAHO, with BAA and PHI vendor tracking), financial services and fintech (PCI DSS v4.0, SOC 2, post-quantum), government and defense contractors (NIST 800-53, 800-171, CMMC, CNSA 2.0), and retail and e-commerce (PCI DSS). The AI-governance and post-quantum coverage is the wedge legacy GRC tools do not match.

Question 6

How is KollGuard different from Vanta, Drata, or Secureframe?

Accepted Answer

KollGuard actually scans your systems rather than only collecting evidence or sending questionnaires, starts free in minutes, is transparently and affordably priced, and lets vendors prove their posture without sharing source code or credentials.

Question 7

Can KollGuard monitor my AI agents?

Accepted Answer

Yes. KollGuard's Agent Watch monitors the AI agents you deploy — MCP servers, CI bots, service accounts, and LLM agents — recording every run as a tamper-evident, hash-chained heartbeat, raising health and behavior-drift alerts, and emailing a nightly digest. It maps agent activity to the same SOC 2 and HIPAA controls as the rest of your security posture, so the AI agents touching your data are continuously monitored for compliance.

Question 8

Does KollGuard need access to my source code?

Accepted Answer

No. KollGuard performs read-only checks against repository and database metadata and configuration; it never copies or stores your source code, and credentials are encrypted in a vault.

Question 9

How much does KollGuard cost?

Accepted Answer

The first scan is free. Paid plans are Starter at $19.89/month and Growth at $99/month, with custom Enterprise pricing. There are no quote-based contracts to get started.
