Cequence's Unified API Protection (UAP)
platform empowers organizations in the regions to establish an
API-first methodology for the AI era
Cequence, a pioneer in API security and bot management, today
announced a new partnership with IG Technologies, a premier
cybersecurity provider with a robust global presence in the U.S.,
Caribbean, and Latin America. IG Technologies delivers top-tier
security solutions that address today’s dynamic security
challenges. This strategic collaboration empowers IG Technologies'
customers to seamlessly integrate with Cequence's industry-leading
Unified API Protection Platform (UAP) to ensure comprehensive
defense against attacks, safeguarding APIs on all fronts.
The cybersecurity community has long championed the power of
APIs for their versatility, unlocking a multitude of advantages
like enhanced efficiency and unparalleled flexibility in developing
modern applications. However, a critical gap remains. Security
teams often lack the visibility and defense capabilities needed to
protect APIs from sophisticated attacks. These attacks can target
both flawlessly coded APIs and those weakened by coding errors
released into production.
"The double-edged sword of APIs - their growing popularity and
vulnerability to attacks - necessitates a proactive approach for
companies. Prioritizing a comprehensive discovery of their entire
API footprint is the first crucial step," said Ameya Talwalkar, CEO
of Cequence. "Through this partnership, expanding reach through IG
Technologies' network empowers businesses of all sizes in the
Caribbean and Latin America to fortify their APIs and combat
evolving threats."
With Cequence, IG Technologies' customers and resellers gain a
powerful, all-in-one solution that replaces disjointed tools for
API testing, bot management, and managed services. Customers will
not only streamline API discovery and protection but also unlock
advanced attack surface management capabilities, enabling proactive
threat detection and defense. The result is a simplified yet vastly
strengthened API security posture.
Cequence Security's UAP platform is unparalleled in addressing
all phases of the API security lifecycle. It provides:
- Attack Surface Discovery: Unmasks threat actor tactics
with the latest attack surface view, prioritizing risks for
zero-friction security.
- API Security Posture Management: Safeguards APIs by
assessing risk across the entire inventory, ensuring compliance,
and actively detecting and remediating coding errors.
- API Threat Detection and Response: Protects against the
full range of bot attacks, preventing data loss, theft, and fraud,
eliminating downtime, brand damage, skewed sales analytics, and
increased infrastructure costs.
“Our partnership with Cequence will transform how we approach
API security, offering unparalleled protection and streamlined
integration for our customers and resellers,” said Iris Garcia, CEO
at IG Technologies. “Robust API security is paramount in these
regions, where unique cybersecurity threats and a growing reliance
on APIs for digital interactions intersect. Our integration with
Cequence's UAP will empower businesses to continuously safeguard
their critical assets.”
