API bot Protection - Block All Types of Automated API Abuse
Credential Stuffing & Account Takeover
APIs are prime targets for credential stuffing attacks, especially in SaaS and banking logins. Competitors rely on rate limits or signatures, which miss distributed and low-and-slow attacks. AppTrana stops them with behavioral profiling and workflow-aware rules tuned to your login APIs, ensuring only valid customers and users gain access.
Experience Reliable API Protection with Indusface
Indusface protects 8 API hosts and the behavioral DDOS is very helpful in dynamic rate-limiting. We haven't seen any downtime.
Company Size: 50M -250M USD
Industry: Travel and Hospitality
Scraping & Data Exfiltration
Bots exploit structured API responses to harvest PII, financial records, customer data, or intellectual property. AppTrana detects anomalies in intent and usage, applies device fingerprinting, and blocks malicious scrapers while keeping partner integrations and trusted machine clients unaffected.
Integrated Security Controls
AppTrana has provided the right set of controls to secure our organization's internet facing applications.
Industry: Telecommunication
Fake Signups & Inventory Hoarding
Automated signups skew metrics, while bots hoard stock through cart and transaction APIs. AppTrana applies workflow-specific rules and expert tuning to safeguard your business-critical flows against such abuse.
Custom SOC Rules Stand Out in Apptrana WAF Experience
We are thoroughly impressed with the protection provided against DDoS attacks, bot attacks, and more. The custom SOC rules are true game- changers, especially when tailored to protect against unpatched or unfixed vulnerabilities in the company’s public-facing applications.
Industry: Construction
Abuse of API Keys & Integrations
SaaS platforms and financial APIs often expose integrations to partners, customers, or developers. Bots can abuse exposed API keys or open endpoints to launch automated fraud, spam, or DDoS-like noise. AppTrana applies workflow- specific rules and managed tuning to protect against such misuse without breaking legitimate integrations.
Adaptive Security and API Protection
We are extremely satisfied with the services. We are specifically impressed by Exceptional Protection, which has Adaptive Security Protection that creates rules on the fly by analyzing traffic and web requests. It has fewer false positives, allowing us to channelize our efforts effectively.
Industry: Manufacturing
AI Tool and Agent Abuse Prevention
Protect your applications from automated requests generated by AI and LLM tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. The system identifies and blocks AI driven crawlers, scripted prompts, and autonomous agents such as Devin and AutoGPT that try to access or misuse your APIs.

Industry: IT Services
Fraudulent Transactions & Business Logic Abuse
Payment APIs, subscription management APIs, and trading or booking systems are top fraud targets. With behavioral validation and 24×7 SOC oversight, AppTrana identifies fraudulent automation in real time and blocks it while allowing genuine users and transactions to flow without disruption.
Only legit traffic to your Website with API Protection
The constant monitoring of web applications against cyber misuse allows us to work stress-free, even in a complex environment. The entire software is highly effective in securing the network and revealing application-layer susceptibilities in real time.
Industry: Retail
24×7 Managed SOC
Our managed SOC continuously monitors API traffic, fine-tunes workflow rules in real time during bot attacks, and performs deep forensic analysis. Each incident is captured with clear timelines of attack patterns, malicious requests, mitigations, and outcomes, delivering compliance-ready reports for internal audits, regulators, and board reviews.

Other Platforms vs AppTrana API
Typical API Tools
Separate tools, add-ons, and manual effort
AppTrana API
All-in-one, fully managed web & API security
Typical API Security Platforms
- Charge per request or per million bot-mitigated calls, so scrapers and credential stuffing campaigns drive up bills.
- Advanced, behavioural bot mitigation is usually a separate add-on SKU with its own pricing.
- You effectively pay for all the bad traffic that hits the edge, even when it is blocked.
AppTrana API Security
- You pay only for clean traffic that reaches your origin servers, not for malicious bot volume.
- Advanced, AI-powered bot mitigation is included, not sold as a separate add-on.
- Unmetered protection keeps costs predictable even when bot traffic spikes.
Typical API Security Platforms
- Rely on signature-based and simple rate-limit rules focused on web pages, not API patterns.
- Limited ability to distinguish good bots, partner integrations and abusive automation on APIs.
- Behavioural bot models, if available, are reserved for higher tiers or specialist products.
AppTrana API Security
- Uses behavioural and ML-driven models tuned for API traffic: methods, paths, tokens, clients and sequences.
- Differentiates real users, approved integrations and malicious automation to reduce false blocks.
- Works alongside API discovery and positive security policies to protect both documented and shadow APIs.
Typical API Security Platforms
- Bot policies are largely self-managed. Your team handles whitelists, CAPTCHA flows and false positives.
- Tuning for new attack tools and frameworks often needs paid professional services.
- Limited alignment between bot policies, business rules and compliance needs.
AppTrana API Security
- Bot protection is fully managed by a 24x7 SOC that monitors API bot traffic and adjusts rules.
- Unlimited tuning, virtual patches and exception handling are covered by SLA-backed managed services.
- Policies are aligned with your business flows so security does not break legitimate API consumers.
Typical API Security Platforms
- Aggressive bot controls can break APIs or cause outages with no clear uptime commitment.
- If the bot layer/platform fails, there is often no automatic bypass, so APIs go dark.
- SLAs rarely include a penalty clause tied to availability of the protection layer.
AppTrana API Security
- Bot defenses are part of a platform with a 100 percent uptime guarantee for the protection layer, backed by a penalty clause.
- Auto-bypass ensures your APIs remain reachable even if the platform faces an issue.
- Zero downtime onboarding and continuous false positive monitoring reduce the risk that bot controls impact real users or partners.
