Why Harness Stands Apart

Threat Detection

100% effectiveness against the OWASP API Top 10 

The agentic future runs on APIs. How well you protect your APIs is how well you protect your business. The group average for this category was 80.3%

Threat Detection

100% False Positive Avoidance Score

Strong blocking only matters if it doesn't come at the cost of legitimate traffic. Harness caught the attacks without getting in the way of real users.

Threat Detection

100% coverage for advanced threats

SecureIQLab defines advanced threats as bot attacks, AI-assisted bot attacks, Layer 7 DoS and DDoS attacks, resiliency, and WAAP vulnerability assessment. Many of these bot attacks especially  are business abuse rather than vulnerability exploits, which makes it essential to know your provider delivers strong efficacy here too, not just against classic exploits.
