PerimeterX (HUMAN Security)

PerimeterX was a bot mitigation and application security company that in 2022 merged with White Ops to form HUMAN Security; the PerimeterX products (Bot Defender, Account Defender, Credential Intelligence, Code Defender) now ship under HUMAN's Applications Protection line, consolidated into the Sightline Cyberfraud Defense platform plus the newer AgenticTrust offering for monitoring and mitigating AI agents. HUMAN also runs an Advertising Protection line (MediaGuard, FraudSensor, Page Intelligence, Ad Click Defense, Malvertising Defense) for ad-fraud and invalid-traffic detection. Developers integrate via lightweight server-side and edge "Enforcer" SDKs, mobile SDKs, and REST APIs authenticated with Bearer server tokens, and can drive the platform from AI agents through HUMAN's official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

agent aware

Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles PerimeterX (HUMAN Security) the way a machine reads it — 8 machine-readable artifacts across 3 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — PerimeterX (HUMAN Security) scores 31.7/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 28/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile PerimeterX (HUMAN Security)

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for PerimeterX (HUMAN Security). For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 3

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Reporting API

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Security Posture 4

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
