This article is a high-level overview of digital transformation trends in Africa, focusing on the need for secure, scalable, and flexible cloud architectures. It highlights Akamai's solutions and upcoming presence at GITEX AFRICA 2026, containing no specific threat intelligence or technical indicators.
Akamai announced that its Enterprise Application Access solution has achieved FedRAMP Moderate authorization. This certification enables U.S. federal agencies to adopt Akamai's Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) platform to meet government-wide cybersecurity mandates, such as OMB M-22-09, while protecting against lateral movement and credential stuffing.
Akamai and Apiiro have announced an integration combining Akamai's App & API Protector with Apiiro's Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) platform. This collaboration aims to provide organizations with comprehensive visibility and correlated security insights across the entire software lifecycle, from code development to runtime execution.
This promotional article highlights Akamai's upcoming presence at RSAC 2026, focusing on the escalating arms race between AI-driven cyber threats and enterprise security. It emphasizes that adversaries are using AI to automate API attacks and exploit cloud misconfigurations, necessitating a shift away from legacy security toward robust Zero Trust frameworks and strategic partner ecosystems.
Akamai has announced the integration of AI-powered WAF detections into its App & API Protector platform. This enhancement leverages machine learning models trained on global traffic to autonomously identify and mitigate sophisticated web attacks, such as evasive SQL injections and parameter pollution, while maintaining human oversight and minimizing false positives.
