Formerly Spartan

Cequence detects and mitigates the attacks that matter
Today’s attackers are more sophisticated than ever, employing a variety of tools and techniques that are often difficult to detect, much less prevent. Cequence bot management detects and mitigates the automated attacks that threaten your organization, including:
How Cequence Bot Management Is Different
No Application Instrumentation
Unlike competing solutions which use CAPTCHAs and other laborious methods that increase customer friction, Cequence requires no application modification. Cequence protects at the network level, ensuring all your web and mobile applications, APIs, and cloud- and microservices-based architectures are protected.
Industry-Leading Bot Detection
Cequence’s holistic network-based bot detection is more accurate than traditional client-side options. Multi-dimensional machine learning techniques identify malicious traffic based on behavior, enabling Cequence to accurately detect the most sophisticated bots, even as attackers re-tool to avoid detection.
Real-Time Mitigation
Cequence’s advanced AI autonomously creates threat mitigation rules and policies that can be implemented automatically or after human review. Real-time mitigation options include blocking, logging, rate limiting, header injection, and deception.
Built With and For AI
Cequence makes use of ML and AI throughout the entire UAP platform, from attack detection to automated mitigation. Cequence protects GenAI and agentic AI use in the enterprise and protects against unwanted scraping by AI bots as well as AI used by malicious actors for sophisticated attacks.
Rapid Time to Value
Cequence deploys quickly on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid. Hundreds of predefined rules immediately deliver protection while remaining customizable to meet the unique needs of your business. Machine Learning accelerates application baselining within hours, not days or weeks.
Fraud Prevention
Cequence fraud prevention capabilities enable organizations to identify and mitigate fraud in real time with customizable, granular policies specific to your business and industry. Detailed incident forensics provides transaction analysis with key insights into fraudulent and malicious activities.
