Key challenges tackled by our API Scanning solution
Traditional security testing often occurs late in the development lifecycle, making it more expensive to fix vulnerabilities. This delay can lead to insecure APIs being deployed to production.
IDOR and Authorization issues
IDORs are the most commonly occurring vulnerabilities and often hardest to prevent or discover.
Authentication Testing
JWT Vulnerabilities, Bypass, session management, Brute Force, user enumeration, and Credential Stuffing remain the biggest challenges
Manual Testing is not scalable
As the number of APIs and their complexity grows, relying solely on manual testing becomes impractical.
