Awake Security was a network detection and response (NDR) company founded in 2014 that used AI and machine learning to analyze network traffic and detect threats, compromised devices, and malicious insiders without relying on agents or signatures. Arista Networks acquired Awake Security in 2020 and the technology now ships as Arista NDR within Arista's security portfolio. The former awakesecurity.com domain redirects to Arista's security solutions site; the product has no distinct public developer API, OpenAPI specification, developer portal, or SDK program of its own. Originally surfaced as a portfolio company of Bain Capital Ventures. Sector: security.
Awake Security (Arista Networks) is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Network Detection and Response, NDR, and Cybersecurity.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
