F5 (NASDAQ: FFIV) today announced new security capabilities to give customers across Australia and New Zealand (A/NZ) comprehensive protection and control in managing apps and APIs across data centre, cloud, hybrid, and edge locations. These new machine learning enhancements provide F5’s cloud security portfolio with advanced API endpoint discovery, anomaly detection, telemetry, and behavioural analysis. This enables secure app-to-app communications through validated and monitored APIs, thereby reducing the time security teams spend correcting false positives and accelerating time-to-deployment for new services. F5 also offers managed service offerings for enterprises and service providers. According to F5’s 2023 State of Application Strategy (SOAS) Report, 85% of respondents have deployed apps and APIs in distributed environments spanning multiple public clouds, as well as on-premises and edge locations.
