APIs are the foundation of modern connectivity, but with great power comes great risk. In this video, explore: The critical role APIs play in industries like Smart Cities and connected cars. Overlooked client-side vulnerabilities that expose hidden risks. How misconfigurations amplify data breaches at scale. Key cybersecurity measures like rate limiting to prevent exploitability.

APIs are crucial for data flow, but they also open doors for rapid data breaches if security isn't real-time. In this video, we analyze how an API vulnerability led to a 250 million user data leak in just minutes. Learn why fast data flow in APIs requires immediate, real-time protection to prevent major damage. This case also highlights the often-overlooked importance of client-side security in API protection, especially as APIs are increasingly used in mobile apps and browsers. Discover essential insights to safeguard APIs from potential attacks.

In this video, we analyze a notable API security breach involving Rabbit's AI tool. Hard-coded API keys in their code allowed attackers to access sensitive data, disrupt device functionality, and even view conversation histories. This incident, highlighted by a controversial response from Rabbit, serves as a critical example of the dangers of API leaks. Learn why hard-coded keys pose significant security risks and the lessons organizations can take to secure their APIs and protect user data.

In this video, we examine two significant API security failures, each with devastating consequences. The first breach used a simple trial-and-error method, exploiting broken access control to impact 10 million users. In the Dell example, API abuse exploited a lack of validation and rate limiting, allowing an attacker, posing as a partner, to scrape 49 million records over several weeks. These cases highlight the importance of robust API security practices, especially for business processes and access control. Watch to learn key takeaways on protecting APIs from similar attacks.

Broken access controls are one of the leading causes of API breaches. Learn how weak access control can leave your data exposed, as we explore real-world examples and share insights on protecting sensitive information. Strengthen your API access controls to safeguard against unauthorized access and potential breaches!

What does a successful API security program look like? Discover the essential indicators that every organization should monitor, from inventory control to continuous monitoring and anomaly detection. Learn how these key metrics can safeguard your APIs and ensure your defenses are ready for emerging threats!

API attacks don't always occur in a single request, and more sophisticated attacks require additional context. Whether it's account takeover or scraping, understanding the behavior of an attacker across a session is key to accurate detection and effective investigation. Today, organizations often lack the ability to delve into the details of specific API sessions. Data is spread across multiple tools, or simply unavailable. The Wallarm platform allows users to seamlessly navigate between attack detections and the surrounding session data to fully understand the behavior and interactions involved.
