Contrast Security has partnered with Sumo Logic to integrate its Application Detection and Response (ADR) capabilities with Sumo Logic’s Cloud SIEM, providing security operations centers (SOCs) with enhanced visibility into application-layer threats. This collaboration delivers real-time, high-fidelity attack signals and vulnerability insights, enabling faster and more effective threat response.

The integration of Contrast Security with Sumo Logic addresses a longstanding gap in security operations: application-layer visibility. By embedding lightweight sensors in production applications, Contrast provides real-time detection of active attacks targeting applications and APIs. Unlike traditional perimeter tools like Web Application Firewalls (WAFs), which often generate low-context, false-positive alerts, this solution delivers high-fidelity signals. SOC teams gain precise insights into what was exploited, how, and where to respond, streamlining incident triage and response across the attack chain.
“Security teams can’t afford to operate in the dark when it comes to application-layer threats,” said Michael Cucchi, SVP of Product at Sumo Logic. “By integrating our AI-driven Cloud SIEM with Contrast Security, we’re bringing definitive runtime intelligence into the SOC, eliminating noise, surfacing real threats, and helping customers respond faster and smarter.”
The partnership leverages Contrast’s SmartFix AI to bridge the gap between threat detection and resolution. When Sumo Logic’s Cloud SIEM identifies an attack, analysts can trace it to the specific vulnerable line of code. Contrast’s AI then generates automated code fixes in the form of pull requests, enabling developers to address vulnerabilities swiftly. This closed-loop approach reduces the attack surface and accelerates remediation, preventing multi-stage attacks from progressing further.
“Perimeter tools like WAFs can overwhelm SOCs with unusable low-context alerts that, on top of it, are often false positives. This integration changes that,” said Faya Peng, Head of Product and General Manager of ADR at Contrast Security. “By combining Contrast’s runtime intelligence with Sumo Logic’s AI-powered analytics, SOC teams can instantly understand what was exploited, how, and where to respond, across the full attack chain.”
The Contrast–Sumo Logic integration fosters collaboration across SOC analysts, developers, AppSec, and incident response (IR) teams. By providing a shared, real-time view of application risks, the solution supports prioritized incident response, full-stack threat hunting, and AI-driven remediation. This unified workflow eliminates silos, enabling faster and more effective responses to application-layer threats.
The partnership empowers organizations to enhance their security posture by combining runtime intelligence with AI-driven analytics, ensuring comprehensive protection against sophisticated cyber threats.
This integration marks a significant step forward in addressing application-layer vulnerabilities, equipping SOCs with the tools needed to detect, prioritize, and resolve threats efficiently. By combining Contrast’s real-time attack detection with Sumo Logic’s advanced analytics, organizations can strengthen their defenses and stay ahead of evolving cyber risks.
