As organizations increasingly build digital experiences through third-party software supply chains and AI-powered agents, sensitive data is now created directly in the browser — the point of creation for digital interactions — making it one of the enterprise’s most privileged yet least governed attack surfaces. Jscrambler’s Client-Side Security Platform is powered by a Behavioral Enforcement Core that governs how application code, third-party scripts, and sensitive data behave at runtime. By enforcing software integrity and data governance directly in the browser, the platform ensures sensitive data and AI inputs are controlled according to enterprise policy at the point of creation — before they leave the client environment. Trusted by leading global retailers, airlines, financial services providers, and healthcare organizations, Jscrambler provides the visibility and enforcement organizations need to stop client-side attacks, prevent data leakage, and maintain compliance with regulations including PCI DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, CIPA, CCPA, and the EU AI Act. 40 Ratings Visit Website Criminal IP ASM Criminal IP ASM delivers a threat intelligence-powered approach to attack surface management by combining continuous asset discovery with deep threat analysis across IPs, domains, OSINT, and associated infrastructure.

AI has changed how every company works, and how every company gets attacked. Employees use AI tools IT doesn't know about. Attackers craft deepfakes, vishing calls, and spear phishing emails that get past filters. Adaptive addresses all of it in one unified platform: managing AI tool usage before it becomes a liability, training employees on the threats they'll actually face, simulating AI-powered attacks, and protecting the inbox and browser so threats never reach their intended targets. Because it's one platform, Adaptive develops a complete risk picture and uses it automatically, applying targeted training, attack simulations, and policy controls to lower risk over time. More than 1,000 organizations run Adaptive to manage their human security program, having raised $150M+ from NVIDIA, Andreessen Horowitz, Bain Capital Ventures, and Citi Ventures. 91 Ratings Visit Website MindCloud MindCloud is an enterprise-ready integration platform that connects your tools and automates the workflows between them.

About The Salt Security API Security Platform protects APIs across their full lifecycle – build, deploy and runtime phases. Only Salt can capture and baseline all API traffic -- all calls and responses -- over days, weeks, even months. Salt uses this rich context to detect the reconnaissance activity of bad actors and block them before they can reach their objective. The Salt API Context Engine (ACE) architecture discovers all APIs, pinpoints and stops API attackers, and provides remediation insights learned during runtime to harden APIs. Only Salt applies cloud-scale big data to address API security challenges. Salt applies its AI and ML algorithms, which have been in the market for more than four years, to provide real-time analysis and correlation across billions of API calls. That level of context is essential for rich discovery, accurate data classification, and the ability to identify and stop “low and slow” API attacks, which occur over time. On prem solutions simply lack the data.	About SaltStack is an intelligent IT automation platform that can manage, secure, and optimize any infrastructure—on-prem, in the cloud, or at the edge. It’s built on a unique and powerful event-driven automation engine that detects events in any system and reacts intelligently to them, making it an extremely effective solution for managing large, complex environments. With the newly launched SecOps offering, SaltStack can detect security vulnerabilities and non-compliant, mis-configured systems. As soon as an issue is detected, this powerful automation helps you and your team remediate it, keeping your infrastructure securely configured, compliant, and up-to-date. The SecOps suite includes both Comply and Protect. Comply scans and remediates against CIS, DISA-STIG, NIST, PCI, HIPAA compliance standards. And Protect scans for vulnerabilities and patches and updates your operating systems.
