What You’ll Learn in This Webinar
APIs are the heart of many modern applications. They enable organizations to create new business models and methods of engagement. Yet, security breaches have increased due to the proliferation of unprotected APls and API endpoints. A survey conducted by Salt Security in 2022(¹) found API attacks increased by 681%.
A comprehensive API protection strategy can help address these challenges, but it must include discovery, detection and protection. In this Techstrong Learning Experience, you will learn about:
- The importance of conducting a thorough API inventory
- Implementing testing techniques to find problems throughout the SDLC
- Protecting your API by building in API-specific logging, monitoring and alerting at the application layer
