API Security

API security involves securing the interfaces that allow software systems to communicate with each other. As APIs are central to modern applications and cloud services, they’ve become a key attack vector. Protecting them requires authentication, access control, threat detection, and continuous monitoring to prevent abuse and data breaches.

The API Security Issue

With the explosion of APIs powering everything from mobile apps to micro-services, enterprises are facing growing concerns around API sprawl, weak authentication, and misconfigurations. Many APIs are poorly documented or deployed without full security reviews, making them vulnerable to abuse such as data scraping, injection attacks, or credential stuffing. Without proper inventory and runtime protection, enterprises struggle to keep pace with the sheer volume and variety of APIs across their ecosystems, leaving critical gaps in their defences.

Protecting Sensitive Data
APIs often handle sensitive information, and their security is crucial for protecting data privacy.
Cyber Security
Preventing Business Disruptions
Attacks on APIs can disrupt services and cause financial loss.
Zero-Day Vulnerabilities
Critical vulnerabilities emerge every 9 hours, and attackers quickly exploit them. APIs are often the first attack vectors for adversaries as they are a steady source of potential ingress.
Hacker
API Weakness
APIs are often used to connect systems across networks, but are also seen as a major weakness by adversaries and a staging post for attacks. It's vital these are protected to prevent unauthorized access to your systems.

BlueFort API Security Benefits

Continuous Defence

Provides 24/7 monitoring and anomaly detection to guard against API abuse, data leaks, and misuse. Quickly detects and mitigates threats such as OWASP API Top 10 attacks (e.g., broken authentication, excessive data exposure). Ensures real-time threat intelligence is applied to evolving attack patterns.

Consistent Security

Enforces uniform security policies across all APIs; public, private, internal, and third-party. Reduces gaps caused by inconsistent developer practices or toolsets. Ensures that APIs are secure by design and remain protected throughout their lifecycle.

Confident Innovation

Empowers developers to build and deploy APIs faster, knowing security is baked in from the start. Minimizes friction between security and development teams through automated controls and pre-built security templates. Supports agile and DevOps practices without compromising on safety.

API Protection

Protects APIs from common threats: injection attacks, credential stuffing, rate-limiting bypass. Provides authentication, authorization, and encryption controls to protect data in transit and at rest. Maintains integrity and availability of APIs with built-in DDoS protection and abuse detection.
