Today’s businesses run on APIs
IT, security, and development teams need visibility and control to enact a robust API security program. Use cases include:
API discovery, inventory, and automatic spec generation
API risk identification & classification
API security testing
Sensitive data detection, masking, and exposure prevention
OWASP API Security Top 10 risk categorization
API attack surface reduction
API Security Key Features
Comprehensive API Discovery and Inventory
Cequence discovers internal, external, and third-party APIs as well as edge, infrastructure, gateway, and hosting providers. A combination of inside-out and outside-in discovery provides attack surface and internal API visibility and inventory. Cequence integrates directly with your existing infrastructure such as API gateways or can be deployed inline.
Continuous, Real-Time Risk Visibility
Cequence automatically identifies all your API endpoints – documented, undocumented, third-party, and even shadow APIs to create a runtime API catalog. Discovered APIs are inventoried and assessed for risk related to access control, sensitive data leakage, and even compliance with the published API specification – and automatically generate them if not available. Rules and prioritization are user configurable and require no coding or scripting.
Prevent Sensitive Data Exposure
Cequence automatically identifies and masks sensitive data using ML-based rules with predefined (e.g., credit card numbers) and customizable data patterns. Sensitive data patterns are supported worldwide, enabling differentiation between a US driver’s license number from a Saudi National ID Card ID number, for example. Sensitive data is identified wherever it is, without having to explicitly define specific APIs that transact it or what data is sensitive.

Integrated API Security Testing
Cequence enables IT and development teams to thoroughly test their APIs, identifying and remediating vulnerabilities and coding errors, both in pre-production and at runtime. Test plans can be automatically generated from Postman collections or API specifications, eliminating a great deal of manual work. Supports CI/CD pipelines, IDEs, and stand-alone testing.

Visualize API Traffic Flows
Cequence Flow Graph helps organizations visualize API interactions. Identify internal and third-party APIs, their dependencies, and gain insight into how information flows throughout the API infrastructure. Validate “happy paths”, detect anomalies and gaps in security posture, and shine a light on shadow and rogue APIs.
Protect APIs from Attacks
Cequence API Security protects web, mobile, and API applications from attacks to prevent data loss, theft, and fraud. ML-powered threat detection and analytics and integration with third-party defensive solutions such as WAFs and API gateways ensures protection against even the most sophisticated attacks. Cequence Bot Management provides native mitigation including blocking, logging, rate limiting, header injection, and deception.
