Noname Security

What is Noname Security?

Noname Security is the only company taking a complete, proactive approach to API security. Noname works with 20 percent of the Fortune 500 and covers the entire API security scope — discovery, posture management, runtime protection, and security testing. Noname Security is privately held and remote-first, with headquarters in Silicon Valley, California, and offices in Tel Aviv and Amsterdam. The Noname API Security platform has a proven track record of helping customers with the following use cases: Application Development Organizations can use the purpose-built Noname Active Testing module to “shift left” and uncover vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and compliance problems earlier in the software development lifecycle, before production. The platform provides a suite of API-focused security tests that SecOps personnel can run on demand or as part of the company’s CI/CD development, testing, and deployment practices. Developers can find and remediate design flaws and misconfigurations early so they don't have to fix them later, which can result in taking applications offline and unwelcome downtime. They can also account for compliance issues by inspecting API specifications against one or more sets of governance rules relevant to the agency or company. Visibility and Analytics The Noname Posture Management module enables agencies can discover and inventory all APIs—including legacy and rogue APIs not managed by an API gateway—such as HTTP, RESTful, GraphQL, SOAP, XML-RPC, JSON-RPC, and gRPC. It also helps organizations catalog which ones have sensitive data traversing the APIs, as well as identify any misconfigurations. Noname Recon scans the external API attack surface at regular intervals to uncover public vulnerabilities and attack paths that hackers can exploit. Unlike other Noname products, it does not require any integrations, installations, or implementations. Automated Protection The Noname Runtime Protection module leverages behavioral-based anomaly detection to conduct real-time traffic analysis and uncover threats. It also integrates with existing workflows to fully or partially automate remediation steps based on alert type or recurrence. API security is run completely out of band so there are no network changes or cumbersome agents required. In addition, out-of-band monitoring doesn't slow existing API traffic paths. To detect API anomalies and exploits, AI-driven capabilities analyze traffic in real-time with contextual insights to ID data leakage, data tampering, data policy violations, suspicious behavior, and API security attacks. The module also provides key integrations for incident response so that issues are assigned to appropriate teams as they are identified. Integrations can be configured to trigger automated workflows; for example, if misconfigurations, data policy violations, or suspicious behaviors are detected, they can be reported to the API gateway, SIEM system, and other information security engines to inform the entire security team.
