Case Study: BMC Software strengthens multi-cloud application security with ThreatX WAAP

BMC Software Relies on ThreatX to Protect Its Vast Portfolio of Enterprise Applications and Websites Across a Multi-Cloud Environment

BMC Software, a global provider of enterprise IT management solutions, needed a way to protect its growing portfolio of SaaS applications and websites across a multi-cloud environment. The company wanted to replace a patchwork of traditional, provider-specific security tools with a standardized approach that could secure external-facing web apps and APIs, support rapid WAF changes, and help meet legal compliance requirements.

ThreatX provided its Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) platform to BMC Software, giving the security team behavior-based threat detection, centralized visibility, and scalable protection across cloud services without adding headcount. With ThreatX, BMC improved attack visibility for business units, helped prevent bot-driven traffic that could have caused performance and cost issues, and supported embargo-country blocking while reducing operational overhead.
