APIs: A False Sense of Security
Radware's research highlights critical challenges in API security amid skyrocketing API usage. More than 96% of organizations use APIs extensively, with significant increases in the past year. However, over 30% of APIs remain undocumented, exposing organizations to risks like scraping, business logic attacks, and data breaches. According to Radware, 31.5% of attacks are automated bot misuses, 36% stem from business logic vulnerabilities, and 43.8% from compromised endpoints or certificates. Despite these threats, many organizations feel their APIs are inadequately protected, emphasizing the urgent need for robust API security solutions and continuous monitoring.
