APIsec: An Automated Platform for API Security Testing
APIsec is an automated platform for API security testing that is designed to continuously evaluate and confirm the presence of vulnerabilities in API endpoints.
The Platform Operates Through a Three-Step Process
The platform operates through a three-step process:
1. API Specification Upload
- Users can submit their API documentation for analysis.
2. Credential Configuration
- This step involves integrating authentication mechanisms to enable thorough testing.
3. Automated Testing Execution
- This phase entails a systematic security assessment of API endpoints.
Key functionalities include:
- Continuous scanning and testing of API security.
- Proactive detection of vulnerabilities before production deployment.
- Capabilities for testing business logic.
- Integration with development workflows to promote shift-left security.
- Detailed reporting and analysis of vulnerabilities.
- Support for various API specifications and formats.
The platform includes educational components and resources for API security
The platform offers educational components through APIsec University, which includes:
- Free courses on API security and certification programs
- Hands-on workshops for practical security training
- Technical documentation and established best practices
- Various learning resources focused on API security
APIsec employs automated testing methods to detect security vulnerabilities, issues related to authentication, and possible vectors for API exploitation. Additionally, it ensures continuous monitoring of API endpoints to provide ongoing security assurance.
