Netacea Announces Partnership Agreement With AVANT
June 2022 by Patrick LEBRETON
AVANT offers Trusted Advisors a more comprehensive security offering with Netacea’s industry-leading enterprise bot detection and mitigation solution
Netacea, the bot detection and mitigation specialist, today announced a new partnership agreement with AVANT, a platform for IT decision-making and investment. Netacea’s award-winning bot management solution will bolster AVANT’s security offerings and provide its network of Trusted Advisors with a more comprehensive approach to combating growing and evolving security threats. As an AVANT supplier, Netacea will also join the company’s Security Council and offer Trusted Advisors with advice and counsel on the growing threat bots pose to businesses worldwide.
According to Netacea’s new report, The Bot Management Review 2022, there is growing awareness and investment in bot mitigation but there are still many misconceptions around the origin, intent, and complexity of bot attacks. For example, more than 50% of respondents still believe bot attacks only originate in Russia and China. More importantly, one key survey finding reveals that businesses are taking longer to react to bot attacks. In 2022, the average time to react to an attack is approximately 16 weeks as compared with between 12 and 14 weeks in Netacea’s 2021 report, The Bot Management Review: What are bots costing your business?
According to Shane McNamara EVP of Operations & Engineering at AVANT, the company chose Netacea as its first bot management supplier over similar solutions for its innovative use of threat intelligence and machine learning.
In April, Netacea announced that Forrester identified the company as a Strong Performer in its 2022 evaluation of the bot management market in The Forrester Wave™: Bot Management, Q2 2022 report, receiving the highest possible scores for Threat Detection and Bot Detection capabilities.
Netacea’s revolutionary agentless approach to bot management combines web log analysis with real-time and historic trends to analyse user behaviour and determine intent. The technology is uniquely equipped to detect sophisticated threats, combining extensive signal collection with deep analysis and dashboards that address both security and business context in the enterprise environment.
