⚠

Expert Tip

The traditional perimeter-based security approach is insufficient for APIs. Our experience shows that the most effective API security strategy is based on a Zero-Trust model that strictly authenticates and authorizes every API request regardless of its origin. Integrating API security into the entire development lifecycle (Shift-Left Security) demonstrably reduces the costs of fixing security issues by up to 60% compared to post-implementation fixes.

Securing your API infrastructure requires a methodical, risk-focused approach. Our proven methodology ensures that your API security strategy is comprehensive, effective, and seamlessly integrated into your existing processes.

Our Approach:

Phase 1: Assessment - Thorough analysis of your existing API landscape, architecture, and security controls, as well as identification of risks and vulnerabilities

Phase 2: Strategy - Development of a tailored API security strategy with clear objectives, priorities, and an aligned control framework

Phase 3: Implementation - Gradual introduction of API security measures focusing on critical APIs and highest risks

Phase 4: Validation - Conducting security tests and penetration tests to verify the effectiveness of implemented controls

Phase 5: Continuous Improvement - Establishing processes for continuous monitoring, evaluation, and improvement of your API security

"API security is not a one-time initiative, but a continuous process. The most successful companies view API security as an integral part of their product lifecycle and implement security measures already in the design phase. This not only leads to more secure APIs, but also to significantly higher development efficiency and lower overall costs."
