Salt Security delivers an API Threat Protection solution focused on securing the ubiquitous APIs connecting everything from web and mobile applications to microservices and IoT devices. These are the APIs that you develop and own and are at the core of connecting your applications and data.

Powered by our AI-based Big Data engine and Holistic Detection architecture, only Salt Security:
--Discovers all your APIs and the sensitive data they expose
--Pinpoints and stops attackers during reconnaissance
--Eliminates API vulnerabilities to strengthen your security posture

Salt Security was founded in 2016 by alumni of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to deliver the first, patented API Protection platform to secure APIs. Salt Security deploys in minutes, automatically learns your unique APIs, and requires no configuration or customization to help you protect and improve your API security.

In our Series D round, we raised $140M at a valuation of $1.4 billion. Led by CapitalG, Alphabet's independent growth fund, the round included participation from all existing investors, including Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, Tenaya Capital, S Capital VC, Advent International, Alkeon Capital, and DFJ Growth.
