Prestigious global awards recognize security and IT vendors with advanced, ground-breaking products and solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others
Palo Alto, CA – February 28, 2014 – WSO2 announced today that Info Security Products Guide, the industry’s leading information security research and advisory guide, has recognized WSO2 API Manager with a Silver Award for the 10th Annual 2014 Global Excellence Awards in the API (Application Programming Interface) Management and Security category. These prestigious global awards, which were announced this week, recognize security and IT vendors with advanced, ground-breaking products and solutions that are helping set the bar higher for others in all areas of security and technologies.
WSO2 API Manager is the first 100% open source API management product combining easy, managed API access, API governance, and analysis. It empowers API publishers with complete API lifecycle governance for creating, publishing, deprecating and retiring APIs—supported by OAuth 2.0 authentication, key credential management, and credential mediation. Providing the first API Store, it lets enterprises set up an Apple or Google Marketplace-like store for developers to subscribe to and consume APIs, including self-service key generation. Designed for robust scalability, WSO2 API Manager is built on the same WSO2 technology powering global enterprises, including a Global 1000 company that is handling more than 1 billion API calls per day.
Significantly, WSO2 API Manager is the first API management product with full inherent multi-tenancy, so the same software can run on servers, as a virtual machine, in either a public or private platform as a service (PaaS), or hybrid cloud. It also enables federated access to APIs across multiple entities to manage isolation between departments, partners or development groups.
Other key features include:
“We are honored to have our WSO2 API Manager product recognized by Info Security Products Guide with a Silver Award in the API Management and Security category,” said Paul Fremantle, WSO2 co-founder and CTO. “We believe this recognition from the highly regarded Info Security Products Guide further validates our commitment to reinventing software around open source and open standards to meet enterprises’ real-world API management, governance and security needs.”
