API Gateway vs. API Security #apisecurity #cybersecurity #architecture #devsecops
Your API Gateway Is Not an API Security Solution 🛑
Confusing API management with API security is a costly and dangerous mistake.
An API Gateway is a traffic controller, but it has critical blind spots:
⚠️ It authenticates users but doesn't analyze their behavior for malicious intent.
⚠️ It routes traffic but doesn't inspect payloads for complex attacks.
⚠️ It manages access but can't detect business logic abuse.
This 8-second animation clearly explains the difference in roles and why you need a dedicated security solution to protect what your Gateway manages.
