Netacea, a bot detection and mitigation specialist, has partnered with Utah-based Telarus to provide AI-powered bot management technology to its network of technology consultants. Telarus is a prominent technology solutions brokerage (TSB) of cloud, unified communications, contact center, network services, cybersecurity, IoT and mobility.
Telarus chose Netacea as its first dedicated bot management and detection supplier because of the solution’s innovative, agentless approach to identifying and thwarting sophisticated threats. Netacea’s bot detection solution leverages AI and uses web log analysis with real-time and historic trends to analyze user behavior and determine intent. This means the technology is equipped to detect sophisticated threats, combining deep analysis of billions of interactions and dashboards that address security and business context in the enterprise environment.
“As cybersecurity vulnerabilities and threats continue to evolve and grow more sophisticated, we remain committed to providing our technology consultants with the most innovative and cutting-edge security solutions available, and Netacea met all of our criteria and more,” said Jason Stein, VP of cybersecurity at Telarus. “Bot management is no longer ‘nice to have,’ it’s now a critical part of security infrastructure that protects public sector organizations and companies from potentially devastating bot attacks.”
Bot management has become a more important component of effective enterprise cybersecurity programs as API adoption increases and businesses detect a rise in bot attacks to this high-risk and highly exposed attack vector. The backbone of the digital economy, APIs increase the attack surface and are as vulnerable to exploits by bad bots as are websites.
In Netacea’s Bot Management Review 2022, a survey of more than 400 enterprise organizations, respondents reported a 70 percent rise in bot attacks against APIs over the previous year. Netacea’s agentless approach to thwarting attacks means APIs are protected alongside websites.
“We couldn’t be more pleased to join the Telarus team as their key supplier of bot management and detection technology,” said Joe Murray, SVP of partnerships, Netacea. “Telarus’ technology consultants will now be more equipped to mitigate attacks on their customer’s behalf —many of which are still struggling to understand the threats that sophisticated bots pose to their reputation and profitability. Working with Telarus means working with a distributor with two decades of experience in giving their partner community the best in both solutions and expertise.”
