A contemporary application security solution that effortlessly integrates within DevOps frameworks, enabling the delivery of secure applications from inception to end-user. The current application environment has evolved significantly, with modern applications consisting of microservices that operate in containers, interact through APIs, and are deployed using automated CI/CD pipelines. It is essential for DevOps teams to incorporate security measures approved by the security team throughout distributed systems without compromising release speed or system performance. NGINX App Protect serves as an effective security solution tailored for modern applications, functioning as both a robust WAF and a defense against application-level DoS attacks, ultimately facilitating the secure delivery of applications from their initial code stage to the final customer. It integrates seamlessly with NGINX Plus and NGINX Ingress Controller, providing strong security controls that safeguard against a wide range of sophisticated threats and evasive attacks. This solution minimizes complexity and reduces tool sprawl while supporting the development of modern applications. By employing NGINX App Protect, organizations can create, secure, and manage adaptive applications that not only lower costs but also enhance operational efficiency and provide improved protection for users against emerging threats. Ultimately, this empowers teams to focus more on innovation and less on security concerns.

SafeGuard Cyber is a SaaS security platform providing cloud-native defense for critical cloud communication applications that organizations are increasingly reliant upon, such as Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zoom, Salesforce, and social media.  A blind-spot is growing for security operations as adoption of these tools increases, creating more risk and vulnerability to ransomware, business compromise, and confidential information leakage. Email security lacks the ability to both create visibility outside of email, and primarily defend against malicious files and links. CASB/SASE solutions are difficult to deploy and manage, and the control function is typically left “open” to prevent false positives from affecting business productivity Our platform’s agentless architecture creates a portable security layer wherever your workforce communicates, no matter the device or network. Manage day-to-day business communication risk extending beyond email and into enterprise collaboration applications. Secure your business by protecting the human attack vector from advanced social engineering and targeted threats.
