API security isn't just for engineers. It's a company-wide effort! David Biesack shared that shifting API security left means involving your operations and product teams too. Ops teams need to be aware for effective monitoring and deployment. Product teams should understand its importance in defining secure features.

The best security API testing company I've dealt with. I've gotten so much more from their free courses than I've gotten from other training companies charging $1,000s of dollars. Their free API scanner should be the first go to before running the techniques from their free 12 hour course. The word "Amazing" falls short in defining how good this company is. Thank you Dan and your team for doing what you do. APIsec University

Thanks to our great panelists who came up to the stage to dive into API security and authorization in our morning keynote today. We featured Jacob Ideskog from Curity, Anders Eknert from Styra, and APIsec University's Dan Barahona. Some of my takeaways: API attacks are on the rise, and hackers are targeting broken access control as low-hanging fruit. Organizations should unify segmented policies and begin thinking more about security and avoiding data overexposure earlier on in the design process. Security and dev need to talk more. #apisecurity #platformsummit2024

REVIEW Free API security scanner https://lnkd.in/dYfstj6q The Apisec Free API Security Scanner is a powerful tool designed for automated, continuous API security testing. It provides a free API assessment covering the OWASP API Security Top 10 risks, making it an accessible option for organizations wanting to evaluate their API security posture. It stands out by automating security test generation, running these tests across all API endpoints and methods, and identifying business logic flaws, which are often missed by other tools. One of the key benefits of Apisec is its ability to seamlessly integrate into the CI/CD pipeline, enabling automated testing for every new release. This approach ensures that all changes to the codebase are vetted for security issues before deployment. Moreover, the platform reduces manual testing efforts by up to 80% while increasing test coverage substantially, making it ideal for teams looking to optimize resources without compromising security.
