AI-Powered Web Application and API Security Suite

Sense Defence, founded in 2022 in London, England, provides AI-powered web security solutions focused on protecting web applications, APIs, and data. The company has raised a reported $300,000 in disclosed funding.

Its platform centers on a next-generation cloud WAF that applies machine learning models to detect and block malicious traffic in real time while aiming to reduce false positives. Complementary capabilities include AI-driven DDoS protection, bot mitigation, API security, and rate limiting, delivered through the company’s CWAPP web application protection suite.

Sense Defence’s IntelliSense technology analyzes application-specific traffic patterns to adjust defenses dynamically and improve detection accuracy. The platform integrates with both legacy and modern application environments and supports automated deployment workflows designed to complete in minutes. Its architecture is positioned as a more adaptive alternative to rules-based WAFs, emphasizing continuous learning from evolving attack patterns and lowered operational overhead compared to traditional solutions.
