42Crunch API Security Platform

The 42Crunch API Security Platform is an all-encompassing solution designed to protect APIs throughout their entire lifecycle, from the initial design phase to the final deployment.

API Capture: - Generates OpenAPI contracts from Postman collections and API traffic data. - Automates the configuration of security test setups. - Ensures that OpenAPI definitions match actual traffic information. API Security Testing: - Performs API Audits to assess security scores and address design-time issues. - Provides API Scan functionality to confirm compliance with contracts. - Executes more than 300 security checks. - Integrates smoothly with Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. - Focuses on detecting the top 10 issues outlined in the OWASP API Security guidelines. API Runtime Protection: - Deploys containerized micro-API firewalls for enhanced security. - Uses API contracts as security whitelists to control access. - Offers configuration options based on these contracts. - Operates independently of AI/ML for analyzing traffic patterns. Integration Capabilities: - Works with various IDEs for development ease. - Supports a range of CI/CD pipelines for continuous integration. - Compatible with different API gateways for seamless operations. - Connects to Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems for monitoring. - Functions effectively across runtime containers.

The platform emphasizes automation and governance in API security. This strategy enables teams to incorporate security controls during the development phase and guarantees continuous protection throughout runtime operations.
