As applications grow in complexity and teams evolve, APIs often become overlooked, leading to critical security blind spots. Regain control by identifying and cataloging all APIs within your environment, regardless of their current status.

API discovery includes:

• Code Repositories. Analyze your source code repositories to uncover hidden or undocumented APIs.
• Reconnaissance Scanning. Uncover APIs in your infrastructure that may not be documented in your inventory.
• Network Traffic Monitoring. Monitor network traffic at ingress and egress points to detect APIs that are interacting with your systems.
• Cloud Gateway Inspection. Track all APIs deployed across various cloud environments to prevent exposure from misconfigured or forgotten APIs.

Take a comprehensive approach to assessing the security of your APIs with penetration testing service—from using the API as an end-user to the in-depth testing of your API endpoints for potential security risks.

Penetration testing processes include:

• API Analysis. After identifying the APIs in your environment, our testers review API documentation, work with the API to have well-formed requests, and analyze the documentation for higher-risk requests.
• Thorough Vulnerability Testing. Using a combination of automated and hands-on techniques, our team conducts comprehensive testing of each API endpoint to identify security weakness.

Testing for a wide range of security flaws finds API vulnerabilities and demonstrates how these vulnerabilities can be exploited.

While traditional penetration testing provides a snapshot of your API security at a point in time safeguarding your APIs on an ongoing basis is also key. Continuous security testing service include:

• Ongoing API Security Management. Outsource management of your API security testing. Our scans continually assess your APIs, detect new vulnerabilities, and address them promptly.
• Vulnerability Tracking Over Time. Prevent resolved vulnerabilities from re-emerging as new features are introduced and your team gains insight into recurring issues or the effectiveness of remediation efforts.
• Customizable Testing Frequency. Customize the frequency of testing and reporting to match your business needs, fit seamlessly into your operational workflow, and provide consistent and up-to-date security posture.
• Quick Reporting and Actionable Insights. Each round of testing provides a report on any new vulnerabilities, the status of previously identified issues, and actionable insights and recommendations.

APIs have their own distinct lifecycle—from design and development to deployment, management, and retirement—that demands dedicated attention. Understanding and managing API-related risks throughout their entire life cycle is crucial for maintaining a strong security posture.

Stay informed and reduce risk with API risk assessment that helps your organization identify, evaluate, and prioritize potential issues at every stage of the API lifecycle.

API risk assessments include:

• API-Specific Risk Evaluation. Examine the specific threats your APIs face, ranging from improper access controls to design vulnerabilities, to assess their impact on your organization.
• Comprehensive API Threat Identification. Holistic assessment includes identifying risks such as exposure of sensitive data, weak authentication mechanisms, rate limiting issues, and vulnerabilities in business logic.
• Risk Prioritization and Remediation Strategy. Prioritize identified risks based on potential business impact and likelihood of exploitation and to provide actionable insights and a clear remediation plan that aligns with your organization's security goals.
• Proactive Risk Management. Access the tools and insights necessary to monitor and mitigate risks as they arise.
