API Security Testing

Protecting Your APIs

Stay Secured Against Threats

An Application Programming Interface (API) drives many applications, enabling data sharing and access. Since APIs often handle sensitive information like Personally Identifiable Information (PII), they are a frequent target for hackers.

A poorly configured API can expose a large attack surface, making it a common target for exploitation and resulting in significant data breaches. Unfortunately, vulnerability and web application scans are rarely enough to uncover API-specific issues. API security penetration testing focuses on identifying and mitigating the unique vulnerabilities and security risks associated with APIs.

API Security Testing (1)

Take the Right Measures

Benefits

Specific Tests

API tests check system components, find flaws in interfaces, servers, and databases, and improve software quality for better user experiences.

Dev Ops

API tests can start early in development, identifying issues before GUI testing to reduce costs and fix flaws efficiently.

Reduced Costs

With automation and detailed documentation, testing APIs becomes faster, more efficient, and cost-effective.

Stability

Unlike changing GUIs, stable API interfaces make testing easier, allowing early checks for code issues before GUI tests.
