Why are API’s so Vulnerable?

APIs, or Application Programming Interface’s, connect applications, but can also expose sensitive data. Resolute’s API Penetration Testing identifies weaknesses, empowering developers to build secure code, validate inputs, and implement robust authentication – fortifying your API defences.

API Testing the Resolute Way.

In the current digital landscape things are becoming increasingly connected. Servers and applications talk to each other and both of them to other websites. This is great for functionality; websites can gather information from external sources instead of needing information to be manually added to them.

However, this added functionality also serves to increase the attack surface of an organisation. API Penetration Testing is the counter to this increased risk, painting a detailed picture of the security of both your application logic and your coding practices.

FAQs.

API penetration testing assesses the security of your APIs by simulating cyber-attacks to uncover vulnerabilities. It’s crucial because APIs are common targets for hackers due to their role in data exchange between applications.

API Penetration Testing specifically targets API security, focusing on endpoints, authentication, and data validation. Traditional testing usually covers broader infrastructure and web applications.

Regular testing is essential. Conducting tests periodically ensures ongoing security and protects against evolving threats. Resolute recommends testing is done at least once every year, and after any large changes made to the API’s codebase.

API testing focuses on the internal functions and data of an application, ensuring they work as expected. UI testing checks the user interface (what you see and interact with) for functionality and usability. Essentially, API testing looks under the hood, while UI testing focuses on the driving experience.
