Radware lauded as Leader in GigaOm's 2024 AAS Security Report

Radware, a prominent provider of cybersecurity and application delivery solutions, has been distinguished as a Leader and Fast Mover in GigaOm's 2024 Radar for Application and API Security (AAS) Report. Notably, Radware is the sole vendor among the 13 assessed security providers to achieve a top score for its AI-enhanced vulnerability detection. Furthermore, Radware earned a paramount score in the crucial category of bot management, largely due to being the solitary vendor offering an advanced crypto challenge functionality.

The GigaOm report highlighted Radware's superior AI protection capabilities, describing it as the only vendor in their analysis to receive a top score for 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," the report states.

With an escalating trend of attackers leveraging AI to mount more sophisticated, adaptively evolving attacks, as well as to reduce time-to-attack, Radware's approach applies an AI against AI strategy. Radware's Chief Operating Officer, Gabi Malka, explained, "With AI-powered algorithms and automated detection and mitigation capabilities in place, Radware has the right offering for organisations seeking top-notch application and API security and a shorter mean time to resolution."

Don MacVittie, GigaOm research analyst, documented Radware's offerings in detail in the 2024 Radar for Application and API Security Report. Radware provides a broad array of deeply integrated tools that can be combined in any configuration to tailor the protection an organisation requires. Unique to Radware is its crypto challenge offering - the ability to boost the computational complexity of challenges encountered during bot attacks to intensify the workload of the attacking platforms. MacVittie posited, "Combined with an otherwise exemplary bot management solution, we find this a compelling feature."

MacVittie also recommended that organisations hoping to gradually expand their security functionality should consider Radware as one of the exemplary choices. "Organisations 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. Organisations with a complex architecture should have Radware on their list of options as well."

The GigaOm Radar report analysed and compared 13 of the superior AAS solutions based on capabilities and non-functional business criteria. In recognition of its exceptional application and network security solutions, Radware has been frequently acknowledged by industry analysts, including Aite-Novarica Group, Forrester Research, Gartner, KuppingerCole, and Quadrant Knowledge Solutions, affirming Radware's status as a market leader in cybersecurity.
