42Crunch, the Developer First API Security platform company, announced today that it has joined the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA), a group of security technology providers who have integrated their solutions with Microsoft’s security technology products to better defend against a world of increasing threats. 42Crunch has integrated with Microsoft Sentinel to provide enterprises with end-to-end API protection and visibility, critical to the success of their API-driven digital initiatives.

The 42Crunch API security platform uniquely offers a combined shift-left and shield-right approach optimized to help DevSecOps teams implement API security throughout the API lifecycle. With 42Crunch, developers can implement security rules early in the cycle at design time, which in turn helps security teams save time and avoid costly fixes later. The platform also enforces API security policies at runtime and via the Microsoft Sentinel integration, offers security teams enhanced compliance and governance of their API traffic.

“The Microsoft Sentinel integration released by 42Crunch is a significant step forward in monitoring weak spots as companies move their custom built applications into the cloud,” said Tony Velleca, CyberProof CEO. “CyberProof believes that next generation security will need to sense anomalies from many new sources, decide quickly what actions to take and automatically execute many of these steps to mitigate the risk. 42Crunch added another key component to support enterprises in meeting these security needs.”
