You Can’t Secure What You Can’t See

APIs are everywhere modern applications can be found. APIs have grown from a few dozen in the early 2000, and now, estimates demonstrate that by 2030, nearly 2 billion APIs will be in operation. In fact, so many APIs has caused a phenomenon called API sprawl. API sprawl can become so great, and the API documentation so haphazard, that security teams have trouble keeping up. And in some cases, developers aren’t telling security teams about new or updates to existing APIs. As a result, security teams don’t know about them, and can’t configure other security controls to help protect them.
