About RASPIRE
RASPIRE is the first line of defense for applications against AI-powered fraud attacks, API abuse, and runtime threats. Unlike code scanners and pentesting tools that identify vulnerabilities before release, RASPIRE operates like a security expert running inside applications, monitoring, detecting, and blocking attacks 24/7 in real time. All without writing a single line of code.
