Cequence Unified API Protection

Complete, unified API security platform for all stages of the API lifecycle

Cequence Unified API Protection discovers and inventories all of your organization's APIs, managed and unmanaged, known and unknown, external and internal. Risks and vulnerabilities of detected APIs are flagged for remediation, while sophisticated threats are identified and mitigated in real-time. The result is comprehensive API-level threat protection that stops data loss, theft, fraud, and disruption to an organization.

Solution overview

Cequence Unified API Protection is a complete API Security solution for protecting the entire lifecycle of the Application Programming Interfaces.

The unified platform addresses all stages of API security, protecting them from attackers and eliminating security risks for unknown APIs.

Main benefits

Cequence Unified API Protection provides the following key benefits:

Continuous API Attack Surface Discovery

Discover external and internal APIs that could expose your organization to data loss, regulatory violations, or system compromise.

Maintain Runtime API Inventory

Manage Runtime API Inventory by integrating with API gateways, proxies, load balancers, and ingress controllers. Implementation is simple and done automatically, by zero-touch discovery of all external and internal APIs.

API Security Testing

API Security Testing is based on generative artificial intelligence. Get custom API security testing plans in minutes. Start fixing critical vulnerabilities before APIs are put into production. Take advantage of the largest database of attack behaviors to detect the full range of risks and threats at the API level, including those defined in the OWASP Top 10.

Analyze and remediate API-level risks

Predefined and custom risk analysis rules enable the discovery of API-level coding errors, which can lead to data loss, fraud, or system compromise. Initiate tasks to correct them with built-in alerting features.

Detection of personal data

The Cequence Unified API Protection platform complies with PCI and SOC 2 security and compliance standards, and customizable machine learning (ML) data discovery-based rules for identifying sensitive data. Thus, it helps you find and correct deviations from data governance policies by identifying APIs that can disclose personal data.

Fast and flexible deployment with no agents, no JavaScript or SDK

The platform is Software as a Service (SaaS), there is nothing to install or configure. Start discovering vulnerable APIs in just 15 minutes. Get complete data protection, and all data stays within the organization's secure perimeter.

Main functionalities

The platform offers three key functionalities: Discover – Comply – Protect, as follows:

Discover via API Spyder

Proactively discover all external and internal APIs that could expose your organization to data loss, compliance violations, or system compromise. All this is possible without implementing any software and without changes to the traffic flow. The Attack Surface Discovery API discovers and classifies, manages vulnerabilities, enables alerting features, monitors changes, enables zero-touch discovery, and real-time inventory.

Comply through API Sentinel

Enables API security posture management, understanding security risks, achieving API-level compliance, and API vulnerability testing according to OWASP (The Open Worldwide Application Security Project) Top 10. It allows API testing functions before they are used in production environments.

Protect with API Spartan

Prevent advanced attacks, business logic abuse attacks, and fraud without code instrumentation. Track down attackers no matter how quickly they reconfigure themselves to go undetected. Allows blocking automated bot attacks.

Native Mitigation

Instant mitigation of API-level attacks is achieved using a behavioral fingerprint that tracks the attack, even as attackers continually adapt their methods. Flexible actions implemented include blocking and misleading attackers through false answers. All this is possible without depending on any third-party solution, such as WAF.

Reporting and Analytics

Use various types of charts to visualize results and analyze identified issues. Generate custom reports to share results and status updates with other team members.

Main categories of functionality of Cequence Unified API Protection

Cequence Unified API Protection acts in the following main directions:

  • API Discovery and Risk Monitoring: Continuous API discovery, API-level attack discovery and risk detection, remediation recommendations, and alerting.
  • API Threat Protection: Continuous protection as a service at the API level, automated attack detection and response, response policies, remediation, and alerts.
  • API Edge Protection: Protection for OWASP Top 10, DDoS protection against L3/L4 attacks, certificate management with domain validation.
  • CQAI: Patented multidimensional analysis based on ML (Machine Learning)
  • Threat Detection Dashboard for monitoring traffic patterns: Allows you to make Traffic Trend Charts and categorize traffic according to IP, fingerprint, username, country, browser, etc.
