API Security

API Discovery and Protection

Inventory APIs, test their authorization logic, and watch runtime traffic for abuse.

9 tools profiled

How it differs Discovers, tests and protects APIs specifically, often working from the OpenAPI contract or live traffic. General web scanning of the same endpoints is DAST.
