How does Salt Security protect AI agents?

Salt secures the underlying APIs that AI agents use to fetch data or execute actions. It ensures agents don't exceed their authorization or fall victim to prompt injection-style attacks translated into API calls.

What makes Salt different from a standard Web Application Firewall (WAF)?

Standard WAFs look for known signatures in single requests. Salt uses big data and AI to look at sequences of API calls over time, allowing it to catch 'low and slow' business logic attacks that appear legitimate individually.

Does Salt Security require agents to be installed on servers?

No, Salt is a non-intrusive solution that typically uses traffic mirroring or existing integrations with API gateways and load balancers, meaning there is no latency impact on your applications.

Can Salt discover 'Shadow APIs'?

Yes, its continuous discovery engine identifies undocumented or forgotten APIs (Shadow/Zombie APIs) that are not managed by your API gateway but are still exposed to the internet.

Does it support compliance requirements like GDPR or PCI-DSS?

Yes, Salt automatically identifies where sensitive PII or financial data is being exposed via APIs, helping organizations maintain compliance and pass security audits.

About Salt Security

What the tool does and who it's for

Salt Security is a leading API protection platform designed to secure the critical APIs powering modern applications and AI agents. It utilizes cloud-scale big data and patented AI/ML models to provide comprehensive visibility, continuous discovery of shadow APIs, and real-time threat detection. By correlating behavior across millions of users and API calls, Salt identifies and blocks complex business logic attacks and data exfiltration attempts during the reconnaissance phase. The platform supports the entire API lifecycle, offering shift-left vulnerability testing in development and remediation insights in production, specifically addressing the unique security risks introduced by agentic AI and LLM integrations.

Key capabilities

Continuous API Discovery: Automatically identifies all APIs, including shadow, zombie, and legacy endpoints across the environment.

AI-Powered Threat Protection: Uses patented ML to detect complex business logic abuse and account takeovers that traditional WAFs miss.

Agentic AI Security: Specifically secures the APIs that AI agents use to interact with sensitive data and internal systems.

Attack Correlation: Aggregates millions of API calls over time to build a baseline of normal behavior and identify malicious reconnaissance.

Data Classification: Automatically detects and classifies PII and sensitive data exposure within API responses for compliance.

Shift-Left Security: Provides API vulnerability testing and design analysis during the build phase to eliminate risks before deployment.

Actionable Remediation: Delivers clear insights and evidence-based reports for developers to fix vulnerabilities quickly.

Ecosystem Integration: Seamlessly connects with API gateways, WAFs, and SIEMs like AWS WAF, MuleSoft, and Splunk.
