Cequence has unveiled two new cybersecurity capabilities Intent Graph and Biometric Check designed to help enterprises defend against increasingly sophisticated bot attacks and secure emerging AI-driven commerce channels. The launch comes as organizations face a rapidly evolving threat landscape fueled by agentic AI, Model Context Protocol (MCP)-based agents, and automated bot traffic. According to the company, traditional bot defense mechanisms that rely on CAPTCHAs, browser fingerprints, and JavaScript challenges are becoming less effective as attackers leverage real browsers, automated CAPTCHA-solving tools, and advanced proxy networks to bypass security controls.
Cequence’s new Intent Graph technology introduces behavioral detection across web, mobile, API, and AI agent traffic. Instead of relying on client-side signals, the platform builds application-specific behavioral models that analyze how users, bots, and AI agents interact with digital services. The solution is designed to identify threats such as credential stuffing, account takeover attempts, data scraping, carding attacks, and business logic abuse while distinguishing legitimate AI agents from malicious automated traffic.
“The Intent Graph tells you what a user, bot, or AI agent is actually doing on your application, regardless of how it got there,” said Ameya Talwalkar, CEO and Co-Founder of Cequence Security.
“Client-side bot protection wasn’t architected for AI-driven traffic, and enterprises are already feeling the consequences as automated traffic exceeds that from humans,” said Ameya Talwalkar, CEO and Co-Founder of Cequence Security.
The company also introduced Biometric Check, a verification capability that replaces traditional security challenges such as CAPTCHAs, SMS codes, and email verification with hardware-based biometric authentication. Using technologies such as Face ID, Touch ID, and Windows Hello, the solution verifies users through secure cryptographic attestation while ensuring biometric data never leaves the device.
Biometric Check can also be integrated into AI agent workflows, enabling organizations to insert human approval checkpoints for high-risk actions such as financial transactions, record retrievals, or contract modifications.
According to Cequence, the new capabilities are particularly relevant as agentic commerce gains momentum across AI ecosystems and digital platforms. The company currently protects more than 10 billion API interactions daily and believes behavioral intelligence will become critical for securing AI-powered applications and automated business processes.
Intent Graph and Biometric Check are now available as part of the Cequence platform, providing enterprises with enhanced visibility, fraud prevention, and governance across human and AI-driven interactions.
