API Vulnerability Assessment
Using real attack methods, we uncover the security risks inherent in APIs.
Purpose of the Assessment
The goal of our API vulnerability assessment is to provide a comprehensive overview of the security posture of your APIs, with particular focus on cybersecurity risks and potential vulnerabilities. Our expert team simulates attacks using real attack vectors, identifying the weak points that cybercriminals could exploit.
Assessment Overview
Our methodology includes both static and dynamic analysis. Through static code analysis, we identify configuration issues and coding weaknesses, while dynamic testing simulates attack vectors as both authenticated and unauthenticated users.
Assessment Process
During API testing, our aim is to cover every potential attack surface
and, by following the entire API lifecycle, elevate its security level to the highest standard.
Our methodology adheres to the latest industry standards, and we continuously update our techniques to address emerging cyber threats.
We analyze authentication mechanisms, token validation, authorization management, input data validation, and protection against overload.
We thoroughly test common vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF), broken object-level authorization (BOLA), and insecure direct object references (IDOR).
We evaluate encryption and data handling practices, as well as the effectiveness of logging systems, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the APIs' security posture.
Outcome
At the end of the testing, a comprehensive technical report is produced, detailing the identified vulnerabilities, their potential risks, and concrete steps to improve security levels. These recommendations support the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of your systems, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches and other security incidents.
