What is API Security Testing?
OWASP Top 10 API Vulnerabilities
Our API security tests combine both automatic and in-depth manual testing techniques. We use the OWASP’s API security standard as a baseline for our testing methodology in order to identify vulnerabilities unique to each API.
- Broken Object Level Authorization
- Broken Function Level Authorization
- Broken User Authentication
- Excessive Data Exposure
- Mass Assignment
- Security Misconfiguration
- Injection
- Improper Assets Management
- Insufficient Logging & Monitoring
- Lack of Resources & Rate Limiting
Our API Security Testing Methodology
Security Assessment
Our experts validate that your API meets various security requirements. For instance, authorization parameters and data access conditions are assessed to determine how the API handles permissions.
Penetration Testing
We attempt to breach your API by circumventing user privileges and bypassing authentication functions to identify technical vulnerabilities that allow hackers to further infiltrate your systems.
Fuzzing
Using various attack methods commonly deployed by hackers, we manipulate API requests and parameters to identify vulnerabilities that can be exploited to compromise your security.
