Web Application and API Protection (WAAP)

This is the page you're already on — the Human View toggle above shows it in full.

A green key on the record, left, is one Decision Insights added. It doesn't exist on the company's site or in a wire feed. The same key labels its row on the right, so you can match them directly. More on how DI enriches a record.

What we add

Counted facts

A dictionary definition doesn't say how often a term is actually used. This counts it across the graph -- articles that mention it, open source projects tagged with it, and the organizations tagged with it, listed here alongside the count. A term has no peer companies, and nothing here claims otherwise.

Organizations tagged 8 Organizations Approov Mobile Security, BB Host, Chaitin, Cosmic Guard, Dedge Security, Signal Sciences now part of Fastly, ThreatX, Wallarm Related terms
