Advanced API Security by Wallarm is a comprehensive solution designed to discover your API attack surface, stop API attacks in real-time, and automate security testing in development and production environments. It helps security and DevOps teams to discover all cloud-native APIs and legacy web applications, detect and respond to threats, and secure against OWASP API Security Top 10 risks. Advanced API Security automatically discovers and inventories assets, maps and tracks changes in exposed APIs and services, reconstructs API and app topology from traffic, and identifies sensitive data usage. It provides full coverage for API threats, account takeover, malicious bots, and L7 DDoS attacks. The platform allows users to upload and enforce API specifications to detect and block non-compliant API requests, monitor threats with complete observability, and drill down into malicious requests. It also integrates security testing into CI/CD pipelines, discovers misconfiguration issues, and conducts continuous assessments from the cloud. Advanced API Security supports REST, SOAP, gRPC, GraphQL, and WebSocket-based APIs, and offers a single dashboard for insights into security posture across the app portfolio. The architecture enables quick installation in diverse environments with one unified console, and deployment can be done in public or private clouds, or any combination of them. It can be deployed site-wide with the Ingress Controller or an Envoy-based sidecar proxy for traffic analysis, and directly into load balancers or API Gateways to inspect traffic with near-zero latency.
