“At HUMAN, we believe our modern defense strategy is the only way to win against cybercriminals. This rests on three pillars: our internet observability advantage, collective protection, and actionable threat intelligence and disruptions,” said HUMAN Co-Founder and CEO Tamer Hassan. “We’re able to not only protect our customers from sophisticated bot attacks, but we’re able to adapt quickly to defend them from threats yet to come.”

Forrester wrote in the report:

“HUMAN’s strategy is among the strongest of the Wave vendors, with a vision focused on lowering the cost of defense and raising the cost of the attack. While HUMAN has always focused heavily on R&D, in the last year, the firm invested significantly in its sales, marketing, and enablement capabilities, and the recent $100M investment will fund both new sales and R&D initiatives. The company’s roadmap is aggressive and detailed, with a focus on improving usability, anticipating new types of bot attacks, and extending into adjacent protections.”

“Our modern defense strategy is what keeps us ahead of our adversaries and puts us in a position to win against them,” continued Hassan. “We’re flipping the game board on fraudsters. While they are trying to adapt to get around our defenses, they’re losing money–making their fraud model less profitable and the consequences of their actions more severe. This is ultimately how we make fraud more expensive and less attractive for them to continue their cybercriminal activities.”

HUMAN’s Modern Defense Strategy includes:

• Internet Observability Advantage – 2,500 dynamic network, device and behavioral signals across 350 algorithms (Technical, Statistical and Machine Learning) and our HUMAN Defense Platform that delivers decisions and insights with unmatched scale, speed, and precision to safeguard your applications and services
• Collective Protection – 15 trillion internet verifications/week on over half of all devices on the internet per month and Collective Protection across customers, ecosystem partnerships, industry groups and government
• Actionable Threat Intelligence & Disruptions – Technical threat intelligence and insights built on over 10 years of combating adversary attack vectors, tools and methodologies and disrupting cybercrime by raising the cost of every attack and lower the cost of collective defense with disruptions, deception, and other innovations
