APIs are the essential connections behind nearly every application, yet they're also a primary target for attackers. Without clear visibility into your APIs, understanding and mitigating their risks becomes incredibly difficult. Organizations frequently experience security incidents related to insecure APIs, with a high percentage of top cloud vulnerabilities belonging to them. The rapid pace of API changes further complicates security, leading to challenges like rogue and shadow APIs, misconfigurations, and a lack of adequate protection against common attacks.
You can't protect what you can't see. To truly secure your applications, you need complete discovery, risk profiling, and real-time defense for your APIs. Adding another standalone tool only increases complexity and cost. A comprehensive approach, integrated within a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP), offers the visibility and protection you need.
