Cequence's UAP Platform empowers e-Safer customers to navigate API security complexities

Cequence, a pioneer in API security and bot management, today announced a new partnership with e-Safer, a Brazil-based IT and cybersecurity consulting firm. This collaboration brings Cequence's industry-leading Unified API Protection (UAP) platform to e-Safer’s portfolio of offerings to empower clients to effortlessly navigate the complexities of application and API security, governance, compliance and protection.

Overlooked yet critical, the interconnectedness between API security and overall cybersecurity leaves organizations vulnerable as API threats escalate. This rise in sophisticated, AI-powered attacks puts immense pressure on organizations to bolster their defenses. Uncontrolled APIs exacerbate this challenge, creating security gaps and hindering compliance with data protection regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Brazil's Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais (LGPD). This pressure has put a spotlight on the need for API security, emphasizing its role in protecting sensitive data from unauthorized access or disclosure.

To address these challenges, Cequence's UAP platform provides a comprehensive discovery of the entire API attack surface to secure and defend mission-critical applications from data loss, fraud, and business disruption. It ensures compliance with security and governance best practices, eliminating unknown and unmitigated API security risks. The solution offers native real-time inline protection, blocking attacks before they reach applications.

“In today’s threat landscape, organizations need an ironclad defense against API attacks," said Ameya Talwalkar, CEO at Cequence. "Our partnership with e-Safer strengthens our commitment to providing best-in-class security solutions to organizations across the globe. By offering a comprehensive API security solution, we're empowering Brazilian businesses to proactively manage their API security posture and stay ahead of compliance regulations."
