AI adoption is a risk multiplier to APIs
APIs are critical enablers of AI applications — and they are also the largest unmanaged risk to modern enterprises. Our fourth annual API security study reveals a staggering gap: API-related incidents climbed to 87% while the number of organizations that know which APIs return sensitive data plummeted to 23%. Beyond that, a lack of security testing in the software development lifecycle is leading to a sprawl of APIs that aren’t resilient against modern attacks. Discover why:
- APIs linked to AI were the most commonly cited incident type
- API incidents cost organizations an average of US$700,000 annually
- Only 16% of enterprises fully integrate API security testing into their development pipelines
- Automated API discovery, threat detection, and security-focused testing is imperative
