An Application Programming Interface (API) is the intermediary that enables exchanging data between applications and services to interact with each other. API security testing is the process of evaluating the security of an API. It is mandatory to perform API security testing to reveal any vulnerabil...

Each new API introduces unique attack vectors, necessitating a continuous, lifecycle-oriented approach to API security. This approach includes designing security into APIs, conducting API security testing, and creating and applying reusable API security policies. ...
Security testing requires developers to submit standard requests using an API client to assess the quality and correctness of system responses. Conducting regular security tests to identify and address security gaps helps teams fix API vulnerabilities before attackers have the chance to exploit them. ...
