Secure APIs with Apigee Sense

Intelligent behavior detection to protect APIs from attacks.

Protecting APIs From Attack

Protecting APIs from attacks

Apigee Sense works with the Apigee Edge API management platform to protect APIs from attacks. It identifies and alerts administrators to suspicious API behaviors. These warnings empower admins to apply corrective actions to maintain user experience and protect backend systems. Critically, Apigee Sense automates protection against future attacks.

Intelligent API Security

Intelligent API security

Analyze call patterns from API metadata captured on the Apigee API platform to build Apigee Sense algorithms that identify anomalies.

Behaviour Detection

Behavior detection

Apigee Sense’s analysis engine examines metadata and characterizes every request from each client, flagging those whose request patterns look suspicious. Analysis includes detecting threat patterns in the API layer and behavior monitored in the background.

API Protection

API protection

Get alerts when a suspicious client is identified, so administrators can determine policy implementation. Apigee Sense automates responses to threats based on administrator rules, running as a closed-loop system in the background.

Apigee Sense features

Advanced risk analytics

Visual dashboards that provide bot analytics, trends, and actionable intelligence.

Automated risk mitigation

Configurable countermeasures like blocking, throttling, and ensnaring of bots.

Complete API security solution

Complete, one-stop API security infrastructure to protect API traffic.

Data-driven risk models

Monitor billions of API calls, identify anomalies, and uncover bad bot patterns.

We focus on the fan, making our APIs available to developers and partners to build unforgettable experiences for them. The key to making our APIs available is following best practices for API security such as authentication, authorization, rate limiting and using Apigee Sense for threat protection.
