This ebook explores three common misconceptions that leave organizations vulnerable to API attacks. It explains why relying solely on API gateways and web application firewalls is insufficient, as authenticated users and trusted partners can still introduce malicious activity. The guide also highlights the risks of focusing security only on customer-facing APIs while overlooking internal, partner, and business-to-business APIs that often expose sensitive data. Finally, it debunks the belief that advanced API security inevitably creates latency, demonstrating how modern out-of-band security solutions provide deep visibility without affecting application performance. Readers gain practical guidance for improving API discovery, behavioral analytics, threat detection, and overall API security
