HUMAN Security

HUMAN Security is a cybersecurity company focused on verifying digital interactions across the customer journey. Through the Human Defense Platform, it helps organizations distinguish legitimate humans, bots, and AI agents from fraudulent or abusive activity across advertising, applications, accounts, and transactions. Its positioning centers on building trust in digital environments where automation, cyberfraud, and malicious traffic increasingly overlap.

The company operates across both advertising and application protection use cases, combining behavioral telemetry, machine learning, and threat intelligence to reduce invalid traffic, fraud losses, and digital abuse. HUMAN Security’s offerings are designed to protect revenue, preserve user experience, support compliance, and give organizations more control over how humans, bots, and AI agents interact with their websites, apps, and media environments.

Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations

HUMAN Security delivers modular protection across two broad areas: advertising protection and application protection. Its capabilities span bot detection and mitigation, cyberfraud defense, AI-agent visibility and governance, client-side security, ad quality and brand integrity controls, and protection against scraping, fake accounts, transaction abuse, and malvertising. The company emphasizes visibility and precision decisioning throughout the full customer journey rather than at a single point of attack.

The Human Defense Platform is built to fit into existing environments through dashboards, APIs, and a broad integration ecosystem. HUMAN Security integrates with cloud and edge platforms such as AWS CloudFront, Google Cloud, Azure Front Door, Cloudflare, Fastly, and Netlify; identity environments including Okta, Ping Identity, and Azure; and analytics and data tools such as Adobe Analytics, Datadog, Google Analytics, Salesforce, and Snowflake. It also extends AI-driven traffic insights into marketing and commerce workflows through integrations with analytics platforms.
