There’s no doubt that API security is a hot topic these days. The continued growth in API-related breaches and increase in publicized API vulnerabilities has pushed API security to the top of CISO’s lists.

As we discussed in the first article in this series, there are many Internet-exposed control systems, but they are very different from traditional IT systems and require a different security approach. With these systems being so critical and controlling processes that can potentially lead to loss of life if they fail, what is being done to tackle this issue? In this article I’ll dive into this and more, looking at.

The cybersecurity landscape is sadly brimming with tools that address narrow, specific problems, leading to a phenomenon known as “Point Solutions.” While these tools can offer precise capabilities, they have significant drawbacks in the modern, cloud-native world.
