Today, we’re thrilled to share that Salt has launched extended capabilities to our powerful platform, adding yet another industry-first technical advancement to our trophy case! (full announcement here.) Since its founding, Salt’s been on a mission to create a platform that can detect, prioritize and solve the most complex API security challenges and risks.

Is Salt Security a fortune teller? We’re not sure if we’d go as far as to say that, but we certainly have had our fair share of precognitive moments. In today’s virtual age where everyone is utilizing and relying on digital landscapes, people’s data is constantly being put online. As technology advances and more people go online, bad actors and cyber threats use vulnerabilities in Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to get access to sensitive data.

The Noname Security 3.25 release supports customizable API risk scoring and dashboard views, in-product notifications for traffic source version updates, enhanced traffic source integrations, and more.

I am thrilled to share that Wallarm, has been named a leader in the GigaOm Radar for API Security! We would like to share insights from the recent GigaOm 2023 API Security Radar report, particularly shining a spotlight on our Advanced API Security solution.

Over the past two decades, as organizations have increasingly strived to integrate security into their development processes, the role of Security Champions has evolved from an informal position to one of strategic importance. They are now responsible for prioritizing security in their projects, leveraging powerful tools like Static Application Security Testing (SAST) to achieve this goal.

In the realm of cybersecurity, the metaphor of "Leaky Buckets" has become an increasingly prevalent concern, particularly in the context of API security. This term encapsulates the hidden vulnerabilities and exposures in API infrastructures that many organizations struggle to identify and address. The digital era has amplified these challenges, with APIs becoming central to the operational fabric of numerous enterprises.

Secret management can be a complex challenge, especially when you are trying to do it in a way that is right for security. Key rotation is a big piece of that puzzle. In this article, we will take you from zero to hero on key rotation.

As I look at the range of API Management approaches that are recommended by various analysts, pundits, and vendors, I find it interesting that most don’t really know how to address “security” in the context of API management. In high-level API lifecycle management diagrams securing APIs is rarely called out visually, although it may be addressed briefly in an accompanying paragraph.

I recently hosted and moderated a distinguished panel of Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) - Nitin Raina, CISO at ThoughtWorks, Mike Wilkes, former CISO at Marvel and Yogesh Badwe, CSO at Druva. We discussed major trends for 2024 across an array of topics including the evolving threat landscape, recent regulations, data privacy considerations, securing product and critical infrastructure.

Bearer CLI, our free and open code security (SAST) scanner, has now been downloaded over 50,000 times since its launch back in March — this year! Behind this number are represented some key industry trends: Let’s dig in!
