What a week we’re having – and it’s only Thursday! RSA has been action-packed, meeting with customers, showing off our new product enhancements, and booking time with new prospects. Interest in API security is running at an all-time high, as more organizations recognize what Salt saw years ago, that APIs entirely upend the security playing field!

With warm and sunny weather expected all week, a bunch of the Salt team is thrilled to be at RSA in San Francisco! We’ll get the chance to talk with security leaders about why API security has become a priority project, and we’ll get time to catch up with customers and each other. It’ll be a great week!

We’re pleased to share that Salt has extended the capabilities of our powerful AI algorithms, further strengthening the threat detection and API discovery abilities of the Salt Security API Protection Platform. (Check out today’s announcement.) Here at Salt, we always look forward to the RSA Conference, but this year we are doubly excited to attend and showcase these new advanced capabilities! Salt invests significant resources into the continued innovation of our API security platform.

Security AI usage has surged, and enterprises are reaping the benefits. In its 2022 Cost of a Data Breach Report, IBM found that organizations deploying security AI and automation incurred $3.05 million less on average in breach costs – the biggest cost saver found in the study. According to the study, organizations using security AI and automation detected and contained breaches faster. However, while leveraging AI clearly makes a difference, organizations must implement the right architecture.
