PALO ALTO, CA, UNITED STATES, August 20, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Salt Security, a leader in API security, has been named an Overall Leader in the KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for API Security and Management 2025. The company was also recognized as a Leader in the Product, Innovation, and Market categories, underscoring the strength of its comprehensive, AI-powered API security platform.
The report, authored by Alexei Balaganski, provides a detailed overview of the API security market, emphasizing the critical role of APIs in the age of AI. The report states, "APIs are the backbone of AI: Every LLM integration, agentic AI workflow, or autonomous decision system depends on API calls”. It further notes that "you cannot secure AI without securing APIs: a fact many organizations still overlook in their rush to embrace AI".
"Being recognised as a Leader across all categories by a respected analyst firm like KuppingerCole is a testament to our team's dedication and our platform's ability to protect our customers from the most sophisticated API threats," said Roey Eliyahu, CEO of Salt Security. "The report's focus on the intersection of AI and API security validates our vision and underscores the critical need for a platform that can provide deep visibility and runtime protection for the APIs that power modern business".
KuppingerCole recognized the Salt Security API Security Platform as a "non-intrusive yet deeply integrated solution that complements existing security infrastructure". The report highlights Salt Security's "patented AI/ML engine" that differentiates "between benign anomalies and actual attacks with a claimed 92% intent accuracy”.
