These new capabilities solve the biggest API security problems most organizations face today, including:
Cequence API Sentinel 2.0, which is now generally available to all customers, helps security and development teams protect against a wide range of threats including those highlighted in the OWASP API Security Top 10 with new API Inventory and Sensitive Data Dashboards to accurately discover and track all their external and internal APIs. Rounding out the new features are new custom and predefined risk assessment capabilities that enable proactive API monitoring and categorization.
