Cequence Storms Black Hat with API Security Testing for Generative AI Applications

That’s a wrap for Black Hat 2024! We had a great show and met many of you at the booth or on the show floor. I hope you were able to come by, watched a session by Jason Kent, Hacker in Residence at Cequence, or Parth Shukla, Security Engineer at Cequence, and maybe even entered to win the PlayStation 5 and Meta Quest VR headset we were giving away!

At the show, Cequence announced API security testing for Large Language Model (LLM) applications against the OWASP LLM Top 10, among other things, which was covered by CSO Online, HelpNetSecurity, MSSP Alert, and more.

Cequence Announcements

As always, we had some big announcements for the show. These additions to our Unified API Protection (UAP) platform demonstrate our industry-leading innovation in API security and bot management.

• Enhanced AI Bot Detection: Automatic detection and blocking of AI bot activity.
• Cequence Flow Graph: A new feature to visualize and manage API traffic in real time.

Let’s Keep it Going!

It’s always a good time at Black Hat in the balmy (108º both days!) desert heat of Las Vegas. Big thanks to all the attendees and Cequence staff for making it another successful event, and we hope to see you all at next year’s Black Hat or another event between now and then. Or, if you’re ready to talk sooner, reach out! Book a call with our sales team – we’d love to talk to you about your particular needs and how Cequence can help.
