Cequence

Cequence is a cybersecurity company focused on protecting applications, APIs and digital business interactions from automated abuse, fraud and cyberattacks. Its platform combines API security, bot management and web application and API protection capabilities with behavioral analytics. Cequence helps organizations discover and inventory APIs, assess their security posture, test API behavior and protect production traffic. Its API security technology is designed to identify vulnerabilities, sensitive data exposure and abnormal behavior across known and unknown endpoints. Cequence Bot Management analyzes traffic behavior to distinguish legitimate users and beneficial automation from malicious bots involved in account takeover, scraping, fraud and other abuse. The platform also provides WAAP capabilities that combine API security, bot protection, WAF and DDoS defenses. Cequence has expanded its platform to address the security and governance challenges created by AI agents interacting with enterprise applications. Its behavioral approach evaluates the intent and actions of users, bots and agents rather than relying only on static signatures. The company serves large enterprises where APIs and digital applications are central to customer transactions and business operations. Cequence is particularly relevant to financial services, ecommerce, travel, technology and other sectors exposed to automated fraud.
