Axis Security

Axis Security was a Security Service Edge (SSE) and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) vendor founded in 2018 and headquartered in San Mateo, California, with research and development in Israel. Its cloud-delivered Atmos platform combined ZTNA, a Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) controls, and digital experience monitoring to connect users to private applications and the internet without a traditional VPN. The company was backed by Canaan Partners, Ten Eleven Ventures, Cisco Investments, and Dell Technologies Capital, and was acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) Aruba Networking in 2023, where the Atmos technology now lives on as HPE Aruba Networking SSE. This API Evangelist profile tracks the company as a portfolio lead; the standalone axissecurity.com developer surface has been decommissioned following the acquisition, so no live API or developer portal is currently published under the Axis Security brand.

Axis Security is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Security Service Edge, Zero Trust Network Access, and Secure Web Gateway.
