F5 (NASDAQ: FFIV) announced that it has been singled out as a
visionary in API security for its F5 Distributed Cloud Web App and
API Protection (WAAP) in Enterprise Management Associates’ Vendor
Vision 2024 report. The report highlights “must see” security
solutions at the upcoming RSA Conference, May 6–9, 2024 in San
Francisco.
In the report, F5 was lauded for its holistic approach to API
and application security, eliminating the need for customers to pay
for and manage disparate API security solutions.
“F5 invented API security. They developed it, evangelized it,
improved upon it some more, and pushed the rest of the security
world to pay attention to it. They are the leaders when it comes to
cloud, application, and network security,” said Christopher
Steffen, VP of Research at EMA.
API security is the critical challenge companies face as they
embrace AI and deploy more AI-enabled services. APIs are the
threads that connect today’s modern applications and the new
preferred targets for cybercriminals. Eighty-one percent of the
total attacks mitigated by F5 Distributed Cloud Services in the
first quarter of calendar year 2024 targeted APIs.
“With today’s complex, modern applications, API security needs
to be made easier, faster, and must meet customers where they are.
The pace of change is the fastest it’s ever been, so it’s critical
to provide end-to-end solutions that can move at the speed of
AI-powered development, without needing armies of consultants to
deploy and manage,” said Chuck Herrin, Field CTO for API Security
at F5. “Customers must demand comprehensive API discovery and
runtime protection, all the way from code base to the end customer,
and it must make the jobs of developers and security teams easier,
not harder.”
F5 foresaw the current hybrid multicloud-driven complexity
crisis years ago, and no solutions provider has invested and
innovated more in creating app and API security solutions that
address root causes, rather than just symptoms. Building on F5’s
legendary BIG-IP for traditional apps, adding F5 NGINX and F5
Distributed Cloud Services for modern and hybrid apps makes F5 the
only security partner that provides comprehensive, AI-ready API
security in a holistic, easy-to-deploy solution. F5 delivers a
single tool, from a trusted security-first partner, to confidently
discover, use, publish, manage, and secure APIs with consistent
oversight and comprehensive controls, no matter where the apps and
APIs run.
