About
A recent report* on the State of API Security in 2024 found that 71% of all Internet traffic was API calls. Other studies have found similar numbers. With APl security breaches the fastest-growing cyber attack vector, the result is a scary scale of threat.
Organizations can defend themselves by automating API testing and by moving that testing to earlier in the development process. But you cannot throw yet another task on the developer’s and testers’ plates. Security professionals have to be involved in the process as well.

Attend this webinar to learn how you can coordinate your team's efforts to improve your API security posture and which tools can help.
