KEY PROBLEMS OF API ASSESSMENT
API Discovery
Continuous tracking and identification of exposed APIs across an organisation’s business estate can be difficult. Exposed APIs can lead to blind spots resulting in breach and data loss. This introduces additional risk to your business.
API Uniqueness
Each new API represents a potentially unique attack vector into your systems. While there are similarities, API security configuration assessment is different to traditional vulnerability scanning.
Insufficient API Threat Protection
API threat protection technology is not as mature as existing threat protection technology. Organisations need to be proactive about understanding security concerns associated with maintaining externally facing APIs.
API Solutions
Modern problems require modern solutions. APIs may not be apparent and simply look like a HTTP service but in reality, an unknown path to business-critical data may be present.
WHAT IS EDGESCAN OFFERING?
Edgescan provides continuous API discovery and vulnerability management coupled with false-positive, free-risk intelligence. Know your APIs, scan your APIs, test your APIs. It’s easy with Edgescan.
EDGESCAN API DISCOVERY
Find exposed APIs across an organisation's global estate.
EDGESCAN API VULNERABILITY SCANNING
Adopt a continuous approach to API security by running regular vulnerability scans against APIs.
EDGESCAN API PENETRATION TESTING
Achieve absolute confidence in the security of your APIs.
PHASE 1: PASSIVE
Simply share the organisation’s external estate with Edgescan. Edgescan will analyse the data looking for indicators of APIs.
PHASE 2: INTERACTION
Edgescan continuous asset profiler runs against all available external addresses provided. Edgescan’s multilayered checks are applied on all live services, resulting in discovery of unknown and shadow APIs.
Historically this was complex but we’ve cracked it!
PHASE 3: ASSESSMENT & ENUMERATION
After API discovery has been completed, Edgescan will run custom API security assessments against all live services.
These are specific API security checks to determine the security posture of the discovered APIs.
STEP 3: API PENETRATION TESTING
Edgescan API scanning technology has
the ability to find vulnerabilities in all types of APIs
Edgescan’s automated API scanning uses the best scanning tools to cover the parts of an organisation’s APIs that are simple to enumerate
With API penetration testing, our security experts go the extra mile for our client’s most critical assets.
Manual penetration testing allows for the full suite of tests to be performed in order to break the business logic of the application
EDGESCAN API DISCOVERY
Our API Discovery is part of the Edgescan Continuous Asset Profiling SaaS that allows an understanding of the API topology within an estate. With Edgescan’s cataloguing and categorising correlation technology, it is possible to reveal the true inventory of APIs and exposures on the internet. The proprietary discovery process runs at regular intervals across the entire estate, and reports the findings back to the end user.
EDGESCAN API VULNERABILITY SCANNING
Our API Vulnerability Scanning is part of the Edgescan Continuous Vulnerability Scanning service that allows an understanding of common security vulnerabilities which may be present throughout an estate. With Edgescan security and vulnerability scanning engines specifically designed for APIs, it is possible to have continuous security visibility of your API exposures on the internet.
EDGESCAN API PENETRATION TESTING
Our API Penetration Testing is part of the
Edgescan API Testing service that allows you to get a deep manual penetration test on your business critical APIs. Combined with Edgescan API Discovery and API Vulnerability Scanning, it provides a comprehensive approach to securing your APIs to whatever level is needed.
