Cequence Security Introduces AI Gateway, Securely Empowering Businesses to Achieve Agentic AI Productivity

In a groundbreaking move, Cequence Security, a leading player in API security and bot management, has announced the launch of the Cequence AI Gateway. This innovative solution aims to bridge the gap between AI agents and enterprise applications, offering instant connectivity with the necessary guardrails for control [1].

The Cequence AI Gateway is designed to provide secure, scalable, and no-code connectivity for AI agents to access enterprise and SaaS applications quickly and easily [2][3]. By acting as a universal bridge, the AI Gateway converts any API into a Model Context Protocol (MCP)-compatible endpoint, enabling agentic AI access to any internal, external, or SaaS application without the need for coding or complex integration efforts [1][2][3].

Key features of the AI Gateway include:

  1. No-code integration: The AI Gateway instantly connects AI agents to applications via emerging standards like MCP, eliminating the need for developer up-skilling, coding, quality assurance, or hosting. This accelerates deployment and reduces operational costs [1][2][5].
  2. End-to-end authentication and authorization: The AI Gateway supports OAuth 2.0 identity provider (IdP) integration to enforce identity-based access controls, preventing unauthorized AI agent entry. It seamlessly integrates with existing enterprise IdPs, a capability many current solutions lack [1][2][5].
  3. Real-time policy enforcement: The AI Gateway applies real-time policies to prevent abuse, protect sensitive data, and ensure AI agents operate within defined boundaries, complying with security and regulatory requirements such as those referenced by the EU AI Act [4].
  4. Monitoring and visibility: The AI Gateway provides comprehensive, real-time visibility and audit logging of AI-API traffic, allowing enterprises to track agent and user behaviour, applications accessed, and exact API calls made. This enhances security monitoring and forensic capabilities [1][2][3][5].
  5. Enterprise-ready architecture: The AI Gateway is delivered as a SaaS solution designed for enterprise environments, supporting continuous environment monitoring with discrete pre-production and production modes. It integrates smoothly with existing infrastructure without disruption, supporting scalability and operational resilience [1][2][3].

In addition to the AI Gateway, Cequence's Unified API Protection (UAP) platform is used by a broad spectrum of the world's largest organizations to monitor and secure their applications and APIs [6]. Together, these solutions offer not only secure AI agent connectivity at scale but also protection against agent-fueled attacks, fraud, and abuse [1][2].

Early adopters of the Cequence AI Gateway have recognized its value, with one enterprise customer going from "stalled" to "operational" in under 48 hours after implementing it [7]. The AI Gateway will be available for deployment in August 2025, in both SaaS and Helm chart deployment formats [8].
