note: percent calculation based-on the number of API security requirements met vs unmet (partial = .5)
Noname Security is built on the idea that protecting an application’s APIs should be centered on getting as much information from the application API lifecycle.
Traceable AI is the leader in API Security. Unlike other API Security vendors, Traceable is focused on building a complete security platform that understands how an API application works. Attackers are now focusing on targeting an application’s business logic flaws and API vulnerabilities that can lead to sensitive data exfiltration. Understanding an application’s business logic is difficult and requires a security platform built to understand an application and how it operates in order to block sophisticated API attacks.
There are some key differences between Traceable AI and NoName that can make a difference in protecting your organization’s sensitive data.
Traceable AI is the leader in API security and enables comprehensive protection for APIs including the Log4j/Log4Shell exploit.

Consider the following points when evaluating NoName
Business Logic
APIs expose business logic, and attackers often exploit your business logic to abuse your APIs. UnderstandingAPI context and transaction/data flows are crucial to detecting and defending against business logic attacks. Traceable AI understands an application’s business logic. Purpose-built to detect and block business logic attacks by analyzing transactions and data flow – helping to thwart sophisticated API attacks that target your mission-critical application’s sensitive data.
Real-time Protection
API attacks are fast and hard to detect because they often look like regular business traffic. Traceable AI has a range of deployment options that takes minutes to set up. This includes an in-app agent option for real-time protection, blocking threats as they come, and an agentless option that can be deployed outside the application depending on your requirements.
Web Protection
Cybercriminals have expanded their attack campaigns to both Web and API applications, looking for an easy way to breach your security defenses and steal your sensitive data. Without a solid defense against web and API attacks, you end up with a hole in your security protection, allowing cybercriminals to gain an easy foothold in your organization.
Traceable AI offers both API and Web protection for mission-critical applications blocking cyber attack campaigns that target both API and web applications, seeking your sensitive data.
