Traceable

vs Cequence

Comprehensive Data for Threat Hunting and Investigation

Traceable collects and stores all API transaction data in queryable API security data. This historical data and rich API context is necessary to power proactive threat hunting, investigation, and forensics for incident response. Cequence does not offer a user-queryable data lake.

Superior Visibility for Complete API Context

Traceable leverages eBPF for comprehensive visibility into east-west API traffic and encrypted API traffic. Cequence primarily collects data at the edge and has limited visibility into east-west API traffic and encrypted traffic, hindering detection in some scenarios.

Flexible Deployment to Support Complex Environments

Traceable supports the widest range of deployment options including agentless deployments, and in-line and out-of-band agents. We support deployment across multiple clouds, API gateways, and load balancers. Cequence primarily deploys at the edge, limiting visibility.

We realized that everything we were asking for was in Traceable.
In those two weeks, we were not only able to stand up the product, but also showcase that all the requirements we had can be fulfilled using Traceable, specifically the critical data lake component.
