Description

Akamai API Security stands out as a versatile, vendor-neutral solution for API threat protection that operates seamlessly across various environments, including SaaS, on-premises, and hybrid setups, ensuring that organizations maintain comprehensive visibility over their entire API landscape, no matter where their APIs are hosted. Its features encompass continuous discovery and inventory management of APIs, automated assessments of the security posture for exposed APIs, real-time monitoring of API traffic flows (both north-south and east-west), and behavior analytics aimed at identifying unusual or abusive usage patterns, all while integrating smoothly with development workflows to facilitate early testing and remediation of API-specific vulnerabilities during the development lifecycle. Among its primary advantages are the ability to compile an exhaustive inventory of APIs, detect and safeguard vulnerable endpoints, automate security testing for APIs, and respond promptly to potential API threats, all while ensuring compatibility with existing security tools like gateways and WAFs without necessitating their replacement. This holistic approach not only enhances security but also streamlines the integration of API management into an organization’s overall security framework, making it an invaluable asset for modern enterprises navigating the complexities of API security.

Description

Prevent the horizontal movement of threats within multi-cloud environments by implementing a software-based Layer 7 firewall at each workload location. As threat actors navigate through your infrastructure and ransomware attacks grow more advanced, east-west traffic has emerged as a critical area of concern. Leverage a software-defined Layer 7 firewall that provides detailed enforcement at scale, effectively securing east-west traffic in the contemporary multi-cloud landscape. This solution allows for straightforward network segmentation, halting the lateral spread of threats while enabling rapid, secure development as you transition to a Zero Trust model. Achieve comprehensive visibility across all network flows, facilitating precise micro-segmentation and the creation of context-aware policies tailored for each workload. By adopting a modern, distributed firewall solution specifically designed to protect multi-cloud traffic across virtualized workloads, you will significantly decrease the attack surface and enhance defenses against both known and emerging threats. Ultimately, this proactive approach not only fortifies your security posture but also ensures a resilient and agile infrastructure in an evolving threat landscape.
