| Scan type | Passive, read-only, production-safe | Agent and agentless, API-based, workload scanning |
| Use case | Continuous web app monitoring, compliance evidence, step-by-step fixes | Cloud security posture, CVE in workloads, compliance (CIS, etc.) |
| Remediation | Step-by-step fixes per finding, PDF/CSV export | Findings with context, prioritization, and cloud-native remediation |
| Pricing | Free tier, paid for monitoring | Commercial, usage-based or seat-based |
Who Barrion is best for
Teams that need ongoing visibility into web app security (headers, TLS, exposure) without cloud or agent deployment. Good for dev teams, agencies, and anyone who wants to secure their web presence and get audit-ready reports.
Who Wiz is best for
Teams that need full cloud visibility, workload vulnerability management, and cloud compliance. Essential for cloud-first organizations and platform/DevOps security.
