Security Competency and More - Deepening our Ties with AWS

Since a lot of our customers build and run their applications in AWS, our partnership and joint solution delivery with AWS provides enormous value. We’re excited to share that we’ve deepened our ties to AWS in two compelling ways, by achieving AWS WAF Ready Status and earning AWS Security Competency.

Stopping API attacks with Salt Security and AWS WAF

Every company’s APIs are unique and so are its security gaps. Bad actors will poke and prod to learn your APIs and find mistakes in business logic they can exploit. Catching these attacks requires context and deep behavioral analysis over time. With its recent AWS WAF Ready designation, Salt Security makes it easier and faster for businesses to protect the APIs running in their AWS environments. Salt provides the visibility, intelligence, and context over time to identify and block attacks using tools you already rely on such as Amazon API Gateway, AWS WAF, and other inline enforcement points.
