Fidelis Security sells a network detection and response platform whose agents watch traffic, endpoints and deceptive decoys to flag intrusions and, in defined cases, contain them automatically.
Fidelis Security (formerly Fidelis Cybersecurity) sells a network detection and response platform built around the Fidelis Elevate architecture, which unifies network sensors, endpoint agents, deception decoys and cloud posture modules under one console. The company's technology traces to work originally developed inside General Dynamics; Skyview Capital acquired the Fidelis Cybersecurity Solutions business from General Dynamics in 2015 and has operated it as an independent, privately held company since. Company background is described on the vendor's own site.
The platform targets mid-market and large enterprise security operations centers, government agencies and managed security providers, with detection content covering network traffic analysis, endpoint telemetry and deception-based lures. Fidelis expanded its cloud coverage in 2021 by acquiring CloudPassage, adding cloud security posture management capability to the Elevate suite. The company remains privately held and does not disclose revenue or customer counts publicly.
Documented from public materials · these are the products the AMS scores
Fidelis Network
Shipping since 2015
Network detection and response sensors that inspect traffic and metadata across an enterprise perimeter and internal segments, using deep session inspection to flag command and control activity, data exfiltration and lateral movement. Documented on the Fidelis Network product page.
Fidelis Endpoint
Shipping since 2015
An endpoint detection and response agent that collects process, file and registry telemetry, supports threat hunting queries, and can isolate or remediate a host once an analyst or a defined automated rule confirms malicious activity. See the Fidelis Endpoint product page.
Fidelis Elevate
Fidelis Elevate
The company's extended detection and response platform that correlates signals from Fidelis Network, Fidelis Endpoint and Fidelis Deception into a single incident timeline, with automated response actions such as endpoint isolation and network blocking available to analysts. Described on the Fidelis Elevate product page.
2024 - 2026 ·gold = a monetization move· grey = product or capital
Fidelis Cybersecurity rebranded as Fidelis Security, consolidating its network, endpoint, deception and cloud lines under the unified Fidelis Elevate name. Company site reflects the current brand.
Fidelis published results from independent adversary emulation testing of its detection and response capability, part of ongoing efforts to demonstrate coverage against known attacker techniques. Coverage discussed on the company's ThreatGeek research blog.
Fidelis does not publish list prices for Fidelis Network, Fidelis Endpoint or Fidelis Elevate; pricing not public. Public procurement listings and vendor marketing indicate the platform is typically sold as an annual subscription or license tied to network sensor throughput and the number of protected endpoints, with modules such as deception and cloud posture management priced as add-ons to the core Elevate bundle.
Enterprise and government buyers generally negotiate multi-year contracts through Fidelis or its channel and managed security partners rather than purchasing off a public price list, consistent with common practice in the network detection and response category. There is no public evidence that Fidelis meters its agents separately by action volume, alert count or automated response events; pricing appears to be capacity and module based rather than usage based.
Analyst layer · placement follows the documented capability above
Independence. Fidelis agents operate with moderate independence. Endpoint and network sensors continuously collect telemetry and can execute predefined automated actions such as host isolation or connection blocking, but confirmed incident triage and broader remediation still rely on human analysts reviewing the Elevate console, placing the documented behavior in the 20 to 50 percent autonomous range.
Job width. The agents are scoped to a single security operations workflow, namely detecting and containing network or endpoint threats, rather than spanning multiple business functions. This keeps job width at the single-task end of the scale even though Elevate correlates several data sources into one view.
Output versus cost. Public materials describe faster detection and reduced manual log review time, but there is no published evidence of order-of-magnitude productivity claims comparable to inflecting or exponential AI agent categories. The documented capability supports a linear improvement over manual security monitoring rather than a step change.
Monetization pattern. Fidelis monetizes through capacity and module based subscription or license contracts covering network sensors, endpoint agent counts, and optional deception or cloud modules, sold mainly to enterprise and government customers through direct and channel sales. There is no public indication of a distinct usage-based meter for autonomous agent actions.
