Guardian360 vs Secfix
Works alongside Secfix
Guardian360 works alongside Secfix, covering the ground that vendor leaves open. A Munich compliance-automation platform, an EU-hosted peer of Vanta and Drata, with 250+ continuous checks and a read-only endpoint agent, sold through AWS Marketplace.
What Secfix is good at
Secfix automates evidence and audit readiness across ten named frameworks, with 250+ continuous checks, cross-framework mapping and a read-only endpoint agent. Its data-residency story is genuinely good, on German AWS with EU-region sub-processors, and it is buyable through AWS Marketplace. Its AI Questionnaires and vendor management aim directly at supplier-risk workflows.

Common questions
Guardian360 vs Secfix, answered
Is Guardian360 an alternative to Secfix?
They solve related but different problems. Secfix automates compliance evidence and supplier questionnaires; Guardian360 Lighthouse scans for real technical issues and maps them to frameworks including the Dutch norms. Many organisations run the two side by side, with Lighthouse supplying the technical evidence underneath.
What is the main difference?
Secfix asserts configuration through APIs and a read-only agent, while Lighthouse actively scans and detects, mapping findings to frameworks including Dutch norms such as NEN 7510 and BIO, and hosts entirely in the EU.
