Securing your API ecosystem is increasingly complex, leaving organizations unsure where to begin.
Gartner's 2024 Market Guide for API Protection offers clear guidance:
'Start using API protection products to discover and categorize your organization's APIs. Identify critical APIs that are publicly exposed and provide access to sensitive data.'
Understanding your API attack surface and prioritizing your security efforts is crucial. Once you have visibility into your API landscape, you can implement appropriate security measures to protect your APIs from abuse and access violations. This might involve deploying an API protection product, implementing security best practices, and conducting regular security assessments.
