API Discovery provides runtime visibility for your entire API portfolio, allowing you to:
APIs are crucial to your organization. And the first step to securing all your APIs is to get full visibility into where they are, what they're meant to do, and how they're doing it.
Sensitive Data Flows
More organizations are pushing more sensitive data through their APIs, including PII, financial & health data, credentials and more – which increases the danger and impact of unintentional or malicious disclosure.
Rapidly Changing API Portfolio
Reliance on open source, 3rd party, and diverse internal development teams results in a veritable alphabet soup of protocols, languages, and frameworks – which adds complexity and cost to your security stack.
Large and Growing API Attack Surface
Organizations struggle to manage the explosive growth in API use, both externally and internally – which means a sizable and expanding attack surface.
Unmanaged APIs
Gartner estimates that by 2025, less than 50% of enterprise APIs will be properly managed – which conceals a massive chunk of your API estate from security controls.
Integrated OpenAPI Security Testing
Identify, track and remediate risky API endpoints, especially those handling sensitive data such as PII, credentials, etc., based on OpenAPI specifications which are created from real-time traffic or uploaded from your Dev team – to prioritize API security efforts and minimize compliance & breach risks.
Wallarm API Discovery provides full visibility into all APIs, sensitive data flows, and risk posture
Know your API Portfolio
Discover all your APIs, including Shadow APIs, Rogue APIs, Zombie APIs, and deprecated endpoints—so you can improve control of your attack surface and reduce risk.
Segment your APIs
Differentiate assets in your portfolio, such as public-facing vs. internal or new vs. old—so you can tailor your security program to focus on critical needs and optimize your security efforts / spend.
Leverage OpenAPI Specs
Use OpenAPI (Swagger) specs created from actual traffic to ensure full visibility, and specs uploaded from your Dev team to easily enable testing.
Monitor Changes in your APIs
Get alerts when new APIs pop up or when existing APIs change—so you can minimize API drift and prioritize scrutiny (e.g., pen testing or bug bounty programs) and guard against protection gaps.
Track Sensitive Data Usage
Understand sensitive data usage, including PII, financial & health data, credentials and more—so you can ensure compliance with applicable regulations / standards and reduce risk of improper exposure.
Detect & Respond to Threats
Quickly search for and assess latent or active threats such as newly published CVEs or CWEs, on-going brute force attacks, and more—so you can remediate issues before they become problems.
