MAHWAH, N.J., May 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radware (NASDAQ: RDWR), a leading provider of cyber security and application delivery solutions, today announced that GigaOm has ranked Radware as a Leader and Fast Mover in GigaOm’s 2024 Radar for Application and API Security (AAS) Report. Radware is the only vendor among the 13 security providers evaluated in the report to earn a top score for AI-enhanced vulnerability detection.

For AI protection capabilities, the GigaOm report notes, “Radware is the only vendor in this analysis to earn a top score on the AI-enhanced vulnerability detection criterion. Radware includes everything that we currently look for in this feature; the AI vulnerability enhancement system uses both IP and application layer information to learn of attacks to protect against and offer suggestions to IT.”

“Attackers are now using AI not only to create more complex and adaptive attacks, but also to decrease time-to-attack. That’s why we are taking a ‘fight AI with AI’ approach to security,” said Gabi Malka, Radware’s chief operating officer. “With AI-powered algorithms and automated detection and mitigation capabilities in place, Radware has the right offering for organizations looking for best-in-class application and API security and shorter mean time to resolution.”

In GigaOm’s 2024 Radar for Application and API Security Report, Don MacVittie, GigaOm research analyst, writes about Radware’s solution:

• “Radware has amassed a broad selection of deeply integrated tools that are available à la carte to build the protection that an organization needs.”
• “Radware is the only one that offers crypto challenge. This is the ability to increase computational complexity of challenges issued during bot attacks to increase the workload of the attacking platforms. Combined with an otherwise exemplary bot management solution, we find this a compelling feature.”
• “Organizations looking to start with one piece of functionality and expand in the future to a single source for AAS and app delivery will find Radware one of a few good choices.”
• “Organizations with a complex architecture should have Radware on their list of options as well.”
