SAN JOSE, Calif., April 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Noname Security, the leading provider of complete and proactive API security, today announced Noname Public Sectors Hardened Virtual Appliance making the API security platform available to the U.S. Federal Government, highly regulated industry customers, and FedRAMP-authorized vendors. The appliance is the first of its kind in the comprehensive API security space and is designed to deliver a drop-in, secure, and scalable system for discovering, monitoring, and protecting mission-critical APIs and data.

Governments and highly regulated industries have unique security needs. Having worked closely with many Federal agencies during my career, I know how impactful it will be to provide this level of security and insight into APIs and provide options that make it easy to meet government standards, said Dean Phillips, Executive Director of Public Sector Programs at Noname Security. The government and regulated industries are not immune from cyber criminals, they are targeted as much if not more than most organizations. Were excited to arm them with the tools they need to protect their assets.

Federal agencies can use the Noname API Security Platform to protect their APIs in real-time and detect vulnerabilities before they are exploited. Noname Securitys Hardened Virtual Appliance makes the API security platform available completely offline with no reliance on internet connectivity, perfect for isolated and controlled environments. It is a finely tuned package of advanced software and premium support built and secured to Federal Government specifications, enabling customers to comply with the most rigorous standards, including Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS)1 and Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Secure Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs)2. Noname collaborated with a FedRAMP 3PAO, The MindPoint Group, on the development of the Noname Hardened Virtual Appliance.

Noname Securitys Hardened Virtual Appliance enables access to a powerful, complete, and easy-to-use API security platform that helps:

Noname Public Sector LLC has made it easier to deploy, configure and manage the platform via the new Noshell() interface.

1 FIPS 140-2, titled Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, is a U.S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. Compliance with the standard is required for equipment used in federal facilities and has become a common stipulation in other public and private IT deployments.

2 Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) are configuration standards developed by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). They are designed to make device hardware and software as secure as possible, safeguarding the Department of Defense (DoD) IT network and systems.

Compliance with STIGs is a requirement for DoD agencies, or any organization that is a part of the DoD information networks (DoDIN). This includes defense contractors that connect to the DoD network or system.

STIGs are also aligned with the Centre for Internet Security (CIS) benchmarks - Level 3.
