We are delighted to welcome two outstanding individuals to our advisory board – Mikko Hypponen and Sounil Yu. These new additions bring unparalleled expertise and strategic insights that will drive continued innovation and address the evolving API security needs of today's leading organizations.
With an ever-changing threat landscape, increased regulatory oversight and a desire among authorities to hold individual executives accountable for data breaches, these are tough times for CISOs. And as APIs become the attack vector of choice for bad actors, it’s more important than ever to prioritize effective API security at your organization.
Unauthorized users could gain access to sensitive financial information via an application's API using the data leaked via Github.
SecOps Vision for 2024, powered by Techstrong Learn, gave industry professionals the opportunity to connect and share security strategies. FireTail CEO, Jeremy Snyder, was pleased to provide the assembled audience with insights into the importance of API security at the intersection of cloud and application security.
API security solutions focused on ML/AI pattern recognition analyze behavior ‘out-of-band’ to identify anomalies, reporting issues after the fact. Prone to false positives, this approach also means attackers will have some success before you learn from it. That’s not acceptable.
Gateways are great, but not for security. API gateways are useful when it comes to API management but they were never designed with security in mind. They can't actively monitor API traffic, they don’t see inside payloads or detect real-time manipulation. They won’t stop most API attacks.
