We’ve taken our award-winning API security “Down Under” with our latest customer success! Today we announced that Jemena, a leading energy company in Australia, has selected the Salt Security API Protection Platform to protect its critical gas and electricity infrastructure. Here at Salt, we are honored that Jemena has chosen us to secure its API modernization project!
In today’s fast-paced development environment, a comprehensive API security testing strategy is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. Testing your APIs for security gaps ensures that your APIs function are reliable, secure, and perform as expected under different circumstances. It helps to identify issues such as incorrect data formats, missing or inaccurate data, and faults in authentication or authorization.
A high-functioning security program leverages data to drive optimization – by satisfying governance, reporting, and compliance (GRC) requirements efficiently, creating visibility for risk-based prioritization, and leveraging automation throughout the software development lifecycle. Often, however, the data needed to drive these processes is spread across a complex ecosystem.
APIs account for more than half of the total traffic of the Internet. They are the building blocks of many modern web applications. As API usage grows, so does the number of API attacks. And so now, more than ever, it’s important to keep these API endpoints secure. Cloudflare’s API Shield solution offers a comprehensive suite of products to safeguard your API endpoints and now we’re excited to give our customers one more tool to keep their endpoints safe.
The Advanced Technology Academic Research Center (ATARC) published its intermediate level document providing guidance to state and local agencies using the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) model as a foundation. This document is a must-read for all state and local agencies, particularly those who are interested in pursuing any of the $1 billion in federal cybersecurity grant money over the next few years.
Previously, we talked about the first phase of our battle testing process. If you haven’t already, give it a read for background on this article. After Bearer CLI proved itself solid against a variety of real-world projects, it was time to take things to the next level and compare the quality of results over time, and against the results of other static application security testing (SAST) tools.
Since we announced version 1.3 of Bearer CLI in early April, the team has been working relentlessly to make major movements and ship amazing new features. Before you read it all, we advise you to update to the latest version in the background 🙂, that way you can start exploring all right after finishing this article!
