What Is API Security Testing: How To Conduct It

Description

APIs can be best described as the threads that allow systems to interact flawlessly. Now, think like this if these threads or bridges are not secured, they provide access, mean to compromise confidentiality and integrity of information processed and stored, deny services or even crash systems. API Security Testing is basically a process of identifying and fixing vulnerabilities in APIs so that attackers cannot exploit them. APIs handle sensitive data and perform critical operations, so leaving them untested are like leaving your front door unlocked.
