SecureLayer7, a leading offensive cybersecurity company, has launched BugDazz API Scanner with next-gen capabilities. This API vulnerability scanner has been designed and developed to enable organizations to automatically detect vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and security gaps in API endpoints. This helps security teams secure digital assets against increasing API-related threats and potential exploits.
Why API Scanners Matter
The exponential increase in applications has transformed business and service delivery. However, owing to the proliferation of APIs, it has also expanded the attack surface, as evidenced by various data and reports.
A Gartner report on Attack Surface Management says that APIs, rather than UI and application architecture and design, are the primary cause of the expanded attack surface in 90% of web-enabled applications. This is true as an average application is now powered by 25 to 50 APIs, quickly creating a vast network of potential entry points for attackers.
This underscores the shift in vulnerability from traditional web interfaces to API endpoints.
Introducing BugDazz API Scanner: A Game Changer
BugDazz API Scanner is a comprehensive tool designed to secure API nodes. It identifies potential vulnerabilities, performance issues, and bugs through automated scanning and covers the OWASP Top 10 API threats.
It’s a robust vulnerability scanner designed for security engineers, developers, and DevSecOps teams.
Powered with robust and user-friendly features, such as SSO login, CICD integration, and customizable report formats, it helps organizations secure APIs at scale from potential vulnerabilities.
BugDazz helps you identify and fix API vulnerabilities, ensuring robust API security before attackers can exploit them.
Elaborating the need for an API scanning tool, Pushkar Kadadi, Product Manager, SecureLayer7, says, “The exponential increase in internet-exposed APIs has significantly expanded the attack digital attack surface, allowing hackers to exploit API endpoint vulnerabilities. Moreover, the inherent complexity of API security makes it challenging for many organizations to address the associated API vulnerability risks.”
