Vendor research
Review what this vendor says publicly, the security topics those statements may support, what remains unverified, and factual company context. This is not an assessment of product effectiveness or fit.
Company scale
A descriptive band derived from retained public revenue, workforce, ownership, or funding signals.
Company context
Cequence says it protects more than 10B daily application programming interface (API) interactions and 4B user accounts; its April 2026 Agent Personas announcement cited more than 140 verified enterprise application integrations
Company intelligence
Company facts provide evaluation context. Each signal is kept separate because tenure, workforce, funding, and hiring answer different questions.
Cequence reported more than $100M in total funding in 2023; its $60M Series C was led by Menlo Ventures with participation from ICON Ventures, Telstra Ventures, HarbourVest Partners, Shasta Ventures, Dell Technologies Capital, and T-Mobile Ventures

There is no combined company rating. The company-scale label uses stated size thresholds; product features and effectiveness require separate evidence.
A current count requires a retained, clickable source URL.
Only company facts supported by retained public sources are shown. Missing values remain unknown, and company scale does not establish product effectiveness.
Solution areas
These areas describe how the vendor approaches enterprise AI security. They do not establish product quality or fit.
