Polymer operates as a runtime security platform that monitors and protects data the moment it's generated or accessed, whether by employees or AI systems. It scans millions of data assets daily across SaaS and AI ecosystems, identifying security risks as they emerge rather than after files move or get downloaded. This approach differs from traditional data loss prevention tools that focus on file movement — Polymer secures the actual information itself, regardless of where it lives or travels.
Its identity-aware detection system treats human users and AI agents as unified entities within security policies. Organizations can group both types of identities together, applying consistent access controls and monitoring across all actors touching sensitive data. This matters increasingly as AI tools expand within enterprises, creating non-human identities that traditional security frameworks weren't built to manage.
Polymer continuously detects, classifies, and labels data both in motion and at rest. The system achieves 99% accuracy in finding sensitive data across SaaS environments. Once classified, it automates policy enforcement at runtime without requiring human review. Actions include redacting sensitive information before it reaches unauthorized users, revoking file access instantly when violations occur, and triggering custom workflows based on specific risk scenarios. One customer reduced alert management time from 8 hours per week to zero after implementing Polymer's automated response capabilities.
The risk quantification engine generates reports and scores that expose shadow AI usage — instances where employees use unauthorized AI tools with company data. It also identifies insider threats and system misconfigurations that create vulnerabilities. These reports map directly to compliance frameworks including HIPAA, SOC 2, CCPA, and GDPR, with audit logs structured to meet regulatory requirements. Polymer itself maintains SOC 2 Type II compliance.
Organizations can deploy Polymer in the cloud or through self-hosted single tenant installations. Role-based access controls determine which team members can view specific security data and configure policies. The insider threat module provides specialized monitoring for internal risk patterns. SIEM connectivity allows security teams to funnel Polymer's findings into existing security information and event management systems.
Real-time training prompts educate employees when they attempt actions that violate policies, turning security moments into learning opportunities. Advanced reporting features provide granular visibility into who accessed what data and when. Monthly risk reports summarize trends and highlight areas requiring attention.
The Lite plan costs $95 monthly and includes one policy, one integration, training and enforcement capabilities, audit functionality, and monthly risk reports. Standard pricing runs $5 per user per integration monthly, adding multiple policies with customization options, unlimited entities and rules, single tenancy hosting, activity monitoring, and advanced reporting. The Enterprise tier costs $33,000 annually and builds on Standard with advanced processing, the insider threat module, SIEM connectivity, business associate agreements for HIPAA compliance, multiple installation options, and AI integrations.
Polymer targets enterprise organizations where CISOs, CTOs, and security operations teams manage complex AI and SaaS environments. Compliance teams needing to demonstrate adherence to healthcare, privacy, and data protection regulations find the mapped audit logs particularly valuable. Polymer addresses the security gap created when traditional tools can't track or control how AI agents interact with sensitive company data across dozens of integrated services.
