Cloud Connect for AWS Gateways Delivers Full API Inventory and Posture Governance—No Traffic Required, No Agents to Deploy, No Waiting

PALO ALTO, Calif., June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Salt Security, the leader in API security, today announced the launch of Salt Cloud Connect for AWS, the first API security solution to deliver full API visibility and posture governance without the need for traffic data or agents. With a simple read-only integration, AWS customers can see every API in their environment in under two minutes making it the fastest and least intrusive deployment in the market.

Unlike traditional API security approaches that take weeks of manual discovery, traffic collection, and complex deployments, Salt Cloud Connect for AWS provides instant insight across all AWS environments, eliminating blind spots caused by shadow and zombie APIs.

"Salt Cloud Connect for AWS flips the script on how API security gets done," said Roey Eliyahu, CEO and co-founder of Salt Security. "While other vendors require troves of information and heavy deployments, we give you complete visibility in minutes with no agents, no sensors, no friction. You connect, and it just works."
