API security orgnanisation Salt Security has announced its expanded partnership and new integration with Wiz, the leader in cloud security. The integration between Salt Security and Wiz enables organisations to detect, comprehend, and respond to both API security posture gaps and critical risks directly within their cloud security infrastructure.
The complexity and size of modern cloud deployments, which often leverage API gateways, pose distinct security challenges for organisations. Traditional security tools cannot evaluate API posture and provide a comprehensive analysis of API traffic required to identify advanced threats. Salt Security’s API Protection Platform tackles these dual issues, delivering continuous API discovery, runtime protection enhanced by behavioural analysis for threat detection, and essential posture governance features.
The integration between Salt Security and Wiz enhances cloud security by directly feeding Salt’s API security intelligence into the Wiz platform. Salt’s deep understanding of API behaviour enriches Wiz’s cloud context, helping teams proactively secure APIs and accelerate response to emerging threats. With this integration, the insights derived from Salt can be viewed directly in the Wiz security graph, allowing security teams to visualise API posture challenges alongside other cloud security threats and risks identified by Wiz. By linking posture assessments and runtime events to potential attack pathways and affected cloud resources within Wiz, organisations gain a comprehensive and actionable view of their entire attack surface.
Oron Noah, VP of Product Extensibility & Partnerships at Wiz, said: “The partnership between Salt Security and Wiz gives customers a clearer view of their API risk — enriching Wiz’s context with detailed insights that help identify posture gaps and potential attack paths. By combining Salt’s API intelligence with Wiz’s cloud visibility, we’re helping teams better understand which issues matter most so they ..
