Application and API Security

Protect your brand by securing apps and APIs from persistent threats

Remediate vulnerabilities that easily multiply

Applications run our world. But as applications and users proliferate, so do security risks. Our app and API solution family secures your enterprise with award-winning WAAP, bot management, API security and testing, and DDoS protection that give you the visibility into threats and the attack defenses you need.

Get protections that automatically update, self-tune to your policies, and maintain high performance even while fighting off botnets or record-setting DDoS attacks.

Deliver safe digital experiences every time

Artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms offer higher detection accuracy with proprietary risk scoring that goes beyond the OWASP group.

Grow your business with secure workloads

Automation of custom protections gives you fewer false positives and less hands-on management of security policies.

Safeguard your IP, assets, and revenue

The global scale of our distributed platform improves application reliability and performance across your ecosystem.
