06Sourced 2025-2026 signals
What's new at Securiti (2025-2026, sourced)
These sourced updates were researched on 2026-07-05 and are listed separately from the live comparison table so existing profile claims remain unchanged.
Veeam completed its acquisition of Securiti AI on December 11, 2025 for approximately $1.725 billion; Securiti founder and CEO Rehan Jalil moved into a new role as Veeam's President of Security and AI, and roughly 600 Securiti employees joined Veeam. This gives harder, dated specifics than the existing FAQ's more general acquisition framing.
In February 2026, Veeam launched 'Agent Commander,' described as the first product resulting from the Securiti acquisition, aimed at detecting AI agent risk, protecting AI systems, and rolling back AI mistakes -- an early, concrete signal of post-acquisition product integration (as opposed to the 'roadmap uncertain' framing implied by the existing FAQ).
Securiti's own Security & Compliance page states the platform itself (not just underlying cloud infrastructure) holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, and ISO 27701:2019 certifications. This is a vendor-stated fact not currently mentioned anywhere in the existing profile or capability table.
On G2, Securiti carries a 4.7-out-of-5 rating from 92 reviews, with users citing ease of use and responsive support as strengths, and (independently) a steep learning curve for new features and UI/scaling friction during large enterprise rollouts (e.g. manual per-connector setup for bulk cloud-data onboarding) as limitations. This corroborates, with a specific rating and review count, the existing FAQ's unsourced claim of a 'steep learning curve.'
Securiti markets a distinct product, Gencore AI (launched October 2024, still actively promoted including at NVIDIA GTC 2025), for building enterprise GenAI systems, copilots and AI agents on top of Securiti's Data+AI Command Center and Knowledge Graph, with NVIDIA NIM microservice integration. This is an AI-system-building/enablement capability, not just AI governance/monitoring, and is not distinguished from the generic 'AI governance' row in the existing capability table.
07Sourced 2025-2026 signals
What's new at Ketch (2025-2026, sourced)
These sourced updates were researched on 2026-07-05 and are listed separately from the live comparison table so existing profile claims remain unchanged.
Ketch was named a Leader in G2's Summer 2026 reports (announced June 18, 2026), earning 22 badges across 41 reports spanning Consent Management, DSAR, Data Privacy Management, Cookie Tracking and Sensitive Data Discovery categories; G2 shows Ketch at a 4.6/5 rating from 147 reviews, and Ketch states it ranked #1 in Enterprise Usability, Results and Relationship for Consent Management, and #1 in DSAR Momentum (fastest-growing DSAR platform on G2 this quarter). This is independent review-platform data not currently reflected in the comparison page.
On Gartner Peer Insights, Ketch shows a 4.8/5 rating from 28 reviews in the Consent and Preference Management market (independently visible on Gartner's site), while Ketch's own marketing materials claim it is the '#1 ranked consent management platform on Gartner Peer Insights' at 4.9/5 -- these are close but not identical figures, so the vendor's superlative claim should be treated as marketing framing rather than quoted as the raw Gartner figure.
Ketch launched 'Data Sentry' on April 22, 2025, described as the industry's first frontend data map for detecting website privacy vulnerabilities -- it scans actual outbound data packets from a website to surface misconfigured CMPs, tracking pixels firing after opt-out, and unauthorized transfers of sensitive data, positioned as a 'privacy pentest' to pre-empt CIPA/VPPA-style demand letters and regulatory action. This is a distinct product capability (frontend privacy-risk/vulnerability scanning) not captured in the existing capability table, which only records a Y/N for basic cookie/tracker scanning.
Ketch has raised a total of $43M across 2 funding rounds (Series A and A1) from investors including Acrew Capital, CRV and SVB, with its most recent disclosed round in 2021 and no Series B or acquisition activity found through mid-2026. This is useful scale context for the comparison (a well-reviewed but still Series-A-stage vendor) and was not previously documented on the page.
08Overlap and gaps
Securiti vs Ketch: what the public data actually shows
Feature count is only a starting point. A customer should separate shared coverage from unique public signals, then test whether the vendor can run the required workflow end to end.
| Decision point | Public signal | Buyer interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Shared evidenced coverage | DPIA/PIA assessments; RoPA / Article 30; DSAR / privacy rights; Data mapping; Vendor risk; Privacy risk; AI governance; plus 9 more | If your requirement sits here, compare workflow depth, implementation effort, evidence quality and price. |
| Only Securiti publicly confirmed | Breach/incident management | Keep Securiti on the shortlist for these requirements, but ask Ketch whether the same capability exists in current product scope. |
| Only Ketch publicly confirmed | Training module; Spreadsheet import; Public pricing | Keep Ketch on the shortlist for these requirements, but ask Securiti whether the same capability exists in current product scope. |
| Acompli reference column | No Acompli-only edge against both vendors appears in the tracked rows. | Use this as a third reference point where a narrower evidence-first privacy workflow may be preferable to a broader platform. |

11Customer due diligence
Questions customers should ask before choosing Securiti or Ketch
A useful comparison should move beyond a product page checklist. Customers should ask each supplier to prove the same live workflow, with the same assumptions, so the difference between platform breadth and usable evidence becomes visible.
Run one real workflow
Ask Securiti and Ketch to process the same example: new activity, assessment, RoPA update, supplier evidence, risk record, review and export.
Check evidence provenance
Confirm whether each important field in Securiti and Ketch has a source, owner, review date and change history, not just a completed form.
Validate exports
Ask both vendors for a regulator-readable export for one legal entity, including controller and processor records where relevant.
Confirm commercial scope
Verify which modules, integrations, service hours, data residency options and support commitments are included in the quoted Securiti or Ketch package.
12Shortlisting notes
Choosing between Securiti and Ketch
Weigh Securiti and Ketch on the workflow you must run end to end - RoPA, DPIA, vendor and risk records - and on how defensibly each one exports what it holds.
- Shortlist Securiti when data security, discovery, consent, breach and AI controls are part of the same enterprise requirement.
- Shortlist Ketch when consent, cookie management and broad data-privacy operations across multiple regimes, with transparent self-serve pricing, are central requirements.
- Put the same case to Securiti and Ketch: take one processing activity through its assessment, the RoPA update, supplier evidence, the privacy risk and a defensible export, and watch where each needs manual work.
13Ireland & UK
Securiti vs Ketch: Article 30 records for Irish and UK teams
Both Securiti and Ketch are weighed by Irish and UK privacy teams against the same fixed obligation: a record of processing activities under GDPR Article 30 - a controller record under Article 30(1) and a separate processor record under Article 30(2). In Ireland the Data Protection Commission (DPC) publishes Article 30 guidance; in the UK the ICO sets out what UK GDPR requires.
Whichever of Securiti or Ketch an Irish or UK team weighs, the questions are the same: how deep is the Article 30 record, is EU and UK GDPR distinguished on one register, and can each legal entity produce a self-contained export its own supervisory authority can read?
| Article 30 check | Securiti | Ketch | Why customers care |
|---|---|---|---|
| Controller record | Ask Securiti to show the Article 30(1) controller fields for one processing activity, including purposes, categories, recipients, transfers, retention and security measures. | Ask Ketch to show the Article 30(1) controller fields for one processing activity, including purposes, categories, recipients, transfers, retention and security measures. | A controller record must stand on its own when a regulator or auditor asks for it. |
| Processor record | Ask Securiti to show Article 30(2) processor records separately from controller records, scoped to the controller on whose behalf processing is carried out. | Ask Ketch to show Article 30(2) processor records separately from controller records, scoped to the controller on whose behalf processing is carried out. | Many tools capture controller records more clearly than processor records; customers should verify both. |
| Ireland and UK fit | Ask Securiti how EU GDPR and UK GDPR records are separated or tagged for Irish and UK entities. | Ask Ketch how EU GDPR and UK GDPR records are separated or tagged for Irish and UK entities. | Irish DPC and UK ICO expectations are close, but entity scope, local law references and export format still matter. |
| Standalone export | Ask Securiti for a complete export that a legal entity could provide without giving the regulator product access. | Ask Ketch for a complete export that a legal entity could provide without giving the regulator product access. | A defensible record should be readable outside the platform, with enough context to explain the processing activity. |
- Article 30(1) and 30(2) - does each of Securiti and Ketch model controller and processor records separately, scoped by legal entity?
- EU and UK GDPR - can Securiti or Ketch hold both on one register, mapped to what the DPC and ICO expect?
- Export - does Securiti or Ketch let each legal entity produce a stand-alone record its supervisory authority can read without platform access?
