VMware acquires Mesh7 for Cloud-Native App Security

by CIO AXIS

VMware has announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Mesh7. The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

Mesh7’s approach of auto-discovering and auto-learning application behavior at the API layer enables seamless collaboration between development, operations and security teams.

Mesh7 provides development teams with the API layer security and observability in the development environment, and empowers security and operations teams with auto-created higher application-layer security controls in run-time.

Once the deal closes, the integration of Mesh7’s contextual API behavior security solution with Tanzu Service Mesh will enable VMware to deliver high fidelity understanding of which applications components are talking to which using APIs. Developers and Security teams will each gain a better understanding of when, where and how applications and microservices are communicating via APIs, even across multi-cloud environments, enabling better DevSecOps.

Tom Gillis, VMware SVP and GM of the Networking and Security Business Unit, wrote in a blog post, “Developers and Security teams will each gain a better understanding of when, where and how applications and microservices are communicating via APIs, even across multi-cloud environments, enabling better DevSecOps.”
