New Radware API Security Platform Targets Real-Time Risk In Modern Cloud Environments

Global application security provider Radware has unveiled a new API Security Service aimed at helping enterprises protect one of their most critical—and exposed—digital assets: application programming interfaces.

APIs now power the majority of modern applications, enabling everything from mobile services to cloud platforms and third-party integrations. But as organisations accelerate digital transformation, APIs are also becoming a prime target for cyber attackers.

Radware’s newly launched service takes an end-to-end approach to API protection, unifying discovery, posture management and runtime defence within a single platform. Rather than relying on static scans or theoretical risk models, the solution continuously analyses live production traffic to identify genuine threats as they emerge.

The company says this real-time visibility is designed to help security teams prioritise remediation efforts based on active risk, while also detecting complex business logic attacks that often evade traditional security controls.

“Most API security tools struggle to separate signal from noise,” said Haim Zelikovsky, Radware’s vice president of cloud security business. “Our approach focuses on real traffic and real attacker behaviour, allowing organisations to reduce alert fatigue while strengthening resilience across their digital services.”

The platform automatically discovers all APIs—including shadow and third-party interfaces—and provides full visibility into inventories, workflows and usage patterns. It also delivers runtime protection against the OWASP Top 10 API Security Risks, alongside bot mitigation and HTTPS DDoS defence.

Designed for enterprise environments, the service supports collaboration between development, security and operations teams through a unified management portal, while also helping organisations meet regulatory and compliance requirements.

Radware said AI-driven detection and adaptive behavioural controls are intended to minimise false positives and prevent disruption to legitimate traffic, even during large-scale attacks.

The API Security Service is now generally available, either as a standalone offering or as part of Radware’s wider application security portfolio.

With APIs increasingly central to business operations, security leaders are under pressure to move beyond point solutions and adopt more holistic, runtime-driven approaches. Radware’s latest launch reflects a broader industry shift toward continuous visibility and real-time protection as enterprises seek to reduce risk without slowing innovation.
