API is a foundational driver of innovation in today’s digital world. And use cases exist across all industry verticals. By nature, APIs expose application logic and sensitive data such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). This makes them an attractive attack vector. Rapid innovation is only possible when said APIs are properly secured. So let’s dig into how to ensure that your API security is on point.
In this recording, we will focus on OWASP’s Top 10 API Vulnerability list, and address how we can visualise and tackle these vulnerabilities as API providers.
This Crash Course is meant for CIOs, IT Directors, IT Managers, Integration Architects, Enterprise Architects, API Practitioners, Product Owners, IT Security Professionals and anyone who stays up at night concerned about security on APIs.
