BreachLock API penetration testing is delivered using our PTaaS model to identify, validate, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities in internal, external , and composite APIs.
An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a set of rules and protocols that allow different software applications to communicate and interact with each other. APIs are designed to provide access to specific data or functionalities within an application or system. Whether it's sensitive customer information, financial data, or critical system functions, APIs are gateways to these assets.
BreachLock API penetration testing identifies weaknesses to help developers and organizations implement improved secure coding practices, thorough input validation, and robust authentication and authorization mechanisms to mitigate security vulnerabilities in APIs.
BreachLock internal API penetration testing identifies vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and misconfigurations in APIs designed to facilitate communication and data exchange within your internal network that can be exploited by malicious actors.
BreachLock external API penetration testing will identify security control weaknesses to ensure that the API is robust and follows secure development practices. This includes code review to identify and mitigate potential security risks before they are integrated into applications.
BreachLock penetration testing identifies and mitigates weaknesses in composite APIs. Composite APIs consolidate multiple microservices into a single gateway, simplifying application interaction.
Our certified pentesting experts leverage industry tools augmented for use to ensure we identify vulnerabilities according to OWASP standards and your organization's security requirements.
BreachLock certified security experts leverage OWASP API security project guidance throughout every API penetration test to help identify well-known, exploitable vulnerabilities and threats. The OWASP API Top 10 2023 list ranks the most common critical risk vulnerabilities found in APIs through early stage of design and development through testing and deployment.
