Kong + Wallarm: Better Together

The combination of Kong and Wallarm enables superior API management and security. While Kong API Gateway provides the foundational pieces to build and manage APIs in a secure manner, modern enterprises rely on Wallarm to enable advanced API protections to defend against growing API-specific threats.

Kong API Gateway – API Security Fundamentals

Application and User Authentication (basic auth, API Key, OAuth/OIDC, LDAP, etc.)
Access Control (ACLs, JWT scopes, etc.)
Encryption Tunnels with digital certificate exchange (mTLS)
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
Rate Limiting & Caching

Wallarm API Security – Advanced API Protection

OWASP API Security Top-10 risks (Injections, BOLA, etc.)
Automated API Discovery and Inventory (new / changed endpoints, PII data, etc.)
API Abuse and Misuse Protection
API Security Testing / Misconfiguration Detection
Block Malicious traffic sources (Tor actors, geos)

Missing API Security features for your API Gateway

Wallarm API Security platform deploys directly into your Kong API Gateway, natively integrating the additional API security layer necessary to protect your API portfolio.

API Discovery

Regain control over your API attack surface with runtime visibility across your entire API portfolio.

OWASP aPI Security

Protect against OWASP API Security Top-10 risks, and other advanced API threats, such as Injections, BOLA, and authentication failures.

API Protection

Defend your APIs in seconds without relying on tedious manual configurations and outdated or inaccurate API specs.

Virtual Patching

Drastically reduce 0-day risks by applying virtual patches to critical issues on the fly.

Sensitive Data Exposure

Meet compliance requirements by tracking and protecting sensitive data, including PII, financial & health data, credentials and more.

Credential Stuffing and Brute Force

Prevent account takeover (ATO) and other behavior-based attacks which can lead to large-scale breaches.

JWT Attacks

Automatically find and report JSON Web Token (JWT) weaknesses and attacks to deter unauthorized access.

Monitor Changes

Minimize API drift and prioritize security efforts (like pen tests or bug bounties) with alerts on new, changed or deprecated endpoints.

Better API Security And unparalleled performance

Wallarm integrates natively into your Kong API Gateway instances to get real-time protection with near-zero latency.

Deployment options include:

Kong Gateway with K8s Ingress Controller with Wallarm
Kong with Wallarm sidecar
Kong with Wallarm proxy balancer

Wallarm integrates into your Kong API Gateway regardless of deployment scenario: cloud (including AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.), multi-cloud, private data centers, Kubernetes environments, and more.

Wallarm also works really nicely with our Kong API Gateway. It’s automatically updated in situ … so it’s a very nice plug-in solution to use for Kong API gateways.
