Outpost24 Webinar - API security 101 and how to secure your web applications
APIs are a key part of modern web applications and a growing security challenge that isn’t well understood by developers and application security managers, leading to exposed APIs that give hackers access to sensitive data. Find out how to secure your APIs and prevent vulnerabilities from making it into production.
APIs provide a great way for applications to connect services and transfer data. But the downside is that with every API created and consumed – there’s an endpoint that could leave your applications and networks exposed to malicious attacks. With Gartner predicting API abuses to become the most-frequent attack vector by 2022, and API calls now representing 83% of all web traffic – API security is the new web application security.
