About

Neosec is a powerful SaaS security platform that finds threats within data. The SaaS solution gives security professionals visibility into behavior across their entire API estate. Built for organizations that expose APIs to partners, suppliers, and users, the platform discovers all APIs, analyzes their behavior, and stops threats lurking inside.

Neosec examines the entire API dataset, including historical data, and operates on more than single requests or short sequences of requests. This data focus makes Neosec highly accurate at locating threats that might otherwise be missed.

The company was named a "Cool Vendor in Application Security, 2022" by the Gartner Research Group.
