What is API Security? API security solutions are a critical part of cybersecurity that protect Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) from threats and attacks. As APIs have become integral to modern applications, they have also become attractive targets for cybercriminals.
My primary use case was to identify PII and financial information exposed over APIs, focusing on accidental exposures or poorly constructed APIs.
We use Akamai API Security to protect our APIs from any DDoS attacks.
