API Security Testing Datasheet

Discovery + Automation + Humans = Unparalleled CTEM

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are the foundation for most of the software that runs the Internet today. Whether used in public or private clouds or mobile applications, APIS share some, but not all, of the same security controls and software concerns as traditional web applications. API security goes beyond these web application controls to include discovery, posture assessment, and vulnerability testing, to ensure connections between systems are safe, reliable, and scalable. DevOps teams must effectively collaborate with SecOps teams to achieve this goal.

Edgescan’s approach to API Security Testing can be broken down into three phases:

  1. Discover: Continuous detection and monitoring of the enterprise’s public-facing assets for APIs, known and rogue.
  2. Automate: Unlimited automated vulnerability assessments with human-validated risks, giving your team “proven exploits.”
  3. Penetration Test: Manual business logic assessment from Edgescan’s certified experts provides comprehensive testing beyond automated testing capabilities.

With discovery, automated assessment (Edgescan DAST) and manual penetration testing of APIs (Edgescan PTaaS), all delivered via the Edgescan Platform, get unparalleled visibility into the risk posture of your API assets.

Key Features and Benefits

  • API Discovery: Continuous detection of APIs across your external footprint.
  • Unlimited DAST Assessments: Automation and analytics, coupled with certified experts, deliver unparalleled accuracy of vulnerability data across your environment.
