Company’s Solution Recognized for Simplifying Bot Mitigation with a Modern Approach that Provides Immediate Time-to-Value

 

NEW YORK — November 16, 2021 — Kasada, provider of the most effective and easiest way to defend against advanced bot attacks, today announced that it has been named a finalist in the security category for the 10th Edition Tech Trailblazers Awards. Finalists are recognized for outstanding products and solutions impacting the cybersecurity industry. 

Voting for the awards is now open here, and will run until November 30, 2021. Winners will be announced online during a virtual awards ceremony, which will be held on Wednesday, December 8, 2021.

Kasada provides the most effective and easiest way to defend against advanced persistent bot attacks across web, mobile, and API channels. The Kasada platform foils automated threats from credential abuse to data scraping, invisibly stopping bot attacks while inflicting financial damage to attackers, destroying ROI.

“Legacy bot mitigation approaches simply don’t work anymore, as attackers have continued to improve their methods and get better and better at disguising themselves as human traffic,” said Sam Crowther, Founder and CEO of Kasada. “They can easily reverse engineer current approaches, adapting in seconds. That’s why the different approach that Kasada brings is so needed.”

With Kasada, businesses are protected from automated threats such as credential stuffing, web scraping and carding attacks, and have faster load times and high availability. Kasada is the first to apply a zero trust philosophy for detecting bad bots, assuming all requests are guilty until proven innocent. This is based on a patented client-side interrogation process that is able to identify the immutable evidence of automation whenever bots interact with websites, mobile apps or APIs.

The result is that Kasada is able to stop modern bot attacks by adapting in real-time, including those never seen before, without ever allowing them to enter an organization’s infrastructure. Kasada’s solution is bolstered with data analysis and machine learning (ML) from billions of bot interactions.

NuData Security, a Mastercard company Wins CyberSecurity Breakthrough Award

/in


Los Angeles, September 30, 2021 – CyberSecurity Breakthrough, a leading independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global information security market, today announced that NuData Security, a Mastercard and online user verification company, has been selected as the winner of the “User Behavior Analytics Security Solution Provider of the Year” award in the fifth annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards program.

NuData monitors billions of devices, processes nearly two billion events monthly, and mitigates threats with over 99% accuracy. The NuData flagship solution, NuDetect, helps companies trust users based on how they behave, without adding friction. The solution looks at things such as how a user types, moves the mouse, or holds the device, among several other data points. Clients can deploy the technology at any placement end-users interact with, such as opening an account, resetting a password or logging in, checking rewards, reviewing a booking, or sending a money transfer.

DevOps Experience

NuData solutions have specific machine learning models for each of the multiple use cases it addresses. By looking at how a user behaves, the technology can adjust to new and growing threats such as human farming, remotely accessing an end-user’s computer.
This breakthrough approach allows companies to prevent attacks and mitigate threats that bypass bot detection tools.

“Our breakthrough technology empowers clients to verify users based on their behavior. If there is a threat – it doesn’t matter if the credentials are correct, if the device information is the same, or the IP is a trusted one – by evaluating the behavior you can see there’s something off,” said Michelle Hafner, SVP of Product Strategy & Execution at NuData. “This award reaffirms our mission in providing secure environments without compromising user experiences. I consider it a strong testament to our momentum and the hard work we’ve done with our clients and partners.”

The mission of the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize innovation, hard work and success in a range of information security categories….
