A Bit About APIsec

We created APIsec to address a fundamental security challenge - APIs are getting breached in ways never seen with web and mobile applications. Hackers are looking for, and finding, logic flaws and loopholes in APIs that can be exploited to give unauthorized access and harvest millions of records. Organizations now employ APIs to power microservices and containers, web and mobile applications, and are even exposed publicly to developers, clients and partners. APIs are a favored target for hackers as they provide direct and programmatic access to internal databases and functionality. APIsec addresses the critical need to secure APIs before they reach production. APIsec provides the industry’s only automated and continuous API testing platform that uncovers security vulnerabilities and logic flaws in APIs. Clients rely on APIsec to evaluate every update and release, ensuring that no APIs go to production with vulnerabilities.
