Application Security

API AssessmentNew

Scans your internal and external APIs for security vulnerabilities — covering authentication weaknesses, injection flaws, excessive data exposure, and OWASP API Top 10 risks — without requiring source code access.

API Assessment

Automated API security testing and vulnerability discovery

What it does

Key capabilities

OWASP API Top 10 Coverage

Automated testing against all OWASP API Security Top 10 vulnerabilities — from broken authentication to SSRF and mass assignment.

Authentication Testing

Validates API authentication and authorisation controls, identifying weaknesses in token validation, key management, and access scoping.

Data Exposure Analysis

Detects APIs returning excessive data or sensitive fields that should be filtered before reaching clients or external consumers.

Injection & Logic Flaw Testing

Tests for SQL injection, NoSQL injection, and business logic flaws that generic scanners typically miss in API contexts.

Detailed Findings Reports

Every finding is documented with CVSS score, evidence payload, remediation guidance, and compliance mapping.

On-Demand & Scheduled Scans

Trigger API assessments on demand or schedule them to run automatically after deployments or major releases.
