Milan, 22 April 2024 – S2E, the business technology consulting firm that supports digital transformation for companies, announces its new partnership with Equixly, an innovative penetration testing platform powered by artificial intelligence that tests APIs, identifies vulnerabilities in advance, and ensures the security of development and production code. Equixly integrates seamlessly into the SOC service that S2E offers to its clients, offering a comprehensive security solution that is intended to enhance data security and reduce breach risks.
Pietro Villivà, S2E’s Business Line Manager Cloud Security, comments, “Innovation and value-added services have always been distinctive elements of S2E. The widespread adoption of cloud and microservices architectures has significantly increased the attack surface to monitor and protect. It is imperative to be able to test the security of our APIs. The partnership with Equixly allows us to continue our growth path and synergistically enrich our cybersecurity services.”
Equixly’s AI-based automation excels in detecting API (Application Programming Interface) vulnerabilities and provides timely and actionable feedback to enable developers to quickly improve security levels. An ML-based algorithm is used to automate API attacks and provide developers with practical solutions. This platform helps businesses to remain resilient to cyberattacks and enables continuous security testing before releasing new applications or features.
“As a CyberSecurity service provider, it is essential to identify partners with whom to build together value-added solutions. We have long been looking for a company to meet the growing demand for increased API security. In Equixly, we have found the ideal partner to meet this specific need of our clients and to expand our SOCaaS service by introducing innovative technology within a solution capable of offering 360-degree control and protection,” concludes Villivà.
“This collaboration is a strategic union to build value-added services on innovative solutions in the field of API security and digital transformation,” comments Mattia Dalla Piazza, CEO of Equixly. With S2E, Equixly’s innovation is brought to Security Operation Centers, extending application security and API security for major companies and institutions.
Several studies underline how the API security market is rapidly growing and will increase from hundreds of millions to multi-billion dollars in a few years. North America holds the largest market share, and the Asia Pacific is the emerging region. There are multiple factors driving this accelerated expansion, including the ubiquity of APIs, the proliferation of mobile and web apps, the adoption of cloud computing and microservices architecture, and the significant increase in security attacks and incidents. APIs are also the cornerstone of the traditional software design approach. The trend seems to favor solutions that can integrate into DevOps, proactively resolve security issues, and be cloud-based and driven by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Equixly is a platform that meets all these requirements.
