When APIs Become Attack Paths: What the Q3 2025 ThreatStats Report Tells Us

Wallarm’s latest Q3 2025 API ThreatStats report reveals that API vulnerabilities, exploits, and breaches are not just increasing; they’re evolving. Malicious actors are shifting from code-level weaknesses to business logic flaws, from web apps to partner integrations, and from REST to AI-powered APIs. Here’s what stood out this quarter, and what security leaders should do about it.

API Attack Awareness: Business Logic Abuse - Exploiting the Rules of the Game

As Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues, we wanted to dive even deeper into the attack methods affecting APIs. We’ve already reviewed Broken Object Level Authentication (BOLA), injection attacks, and authentication flaws; this week, we’re exploring business logic abuse (BLA). Unlike technical flaws, business logic flaws exploit how an API is designed to behave.

After the AWS Outage: How to Build Systems That Survive

When AWS goes down, the ripple effects are global, from authentication failures to service disruptions that bring businesses to a standstill. But while every outage makes headlines, the real question is: Why are so many organizations still unprepared? In this live fireside chat, Wallarm’s Field CTO, and STO of Security Edge, Tim Ebbers, unpacks the architectural lessons behind the latest AWS outage — and what engineering, DevOps, and security leaders can do today to prevent history from repeating itself.

How I 'Hacked' an Online Store #businesslogic #ecommerce #cybersecurity #apisecurity

A $10,000 Order for $1? Your Business Logic is Broken Attackers aren't just breaking code; they're exploiting the rules of your business to commit fraud. When your application's logic is flawed: Your payment and fulfillment systems can be desynchronized. You can lose massive revenue to easily preventable abuse. Your inventory and financial reporting become unreliable. Watch how a simple business logic flaw can lead to catastrophic financial loss in this real-world example. Is your e-commerce platform safe?

Key API Security Takeaways from the Postman 2025 State of API Report

API security has never been more important because modern APIs are operational necessities. Unfortunately, many organizations are failing to adapt their security models to a rapidly changing API threat landscape. Like it or not, we live in an AI-first world, and API security must reflect that reality. The Postman 2025 State of API Report is confirmation of that fact.

API Attack Awareness: When Authentication Fails - Exposing APIs to Risk

Authentication issues seem like low-level attacks. But authentication today – especially API authentication – can be more difficult than people expect. Companies rely on APIs to carry sensitive information every day. If access to those APIs is not properly secured, all the sophisticated security solutions companies use to protect their data elsewhere are completely undermined.

Wallarm: API Security Platform of the Year 2025

2025 has been one of Wallarm’s biggest years yet. In the last few months alone, we unveiled our industry-first API Revenue Protection capability, launched our next-gen Security Edge offering, were included in the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America, and announced our $55M Series C funding round. This October, we’re proud to see our dedication and our customers’ confidence recognized.

A CISO's Guide to API Security

APIs are powering digital transformation but also exposing organizations to new risks. Securing them requires collaboration between CISOs, CIOs, and the board. This webinar will demystify the evolving API threat landscape, outline governance strategies, and provide leaders with the tools to communicate API risk in business terms. Key Learnings: Why You Should Attend.

API Attack Awareness: Injection Attacks in APIs - Old Threat, New Surface

Injection attacks are among the oldest tricks in the attacker playbook. And yet they persist. The problem is that the core weakness, trusting user inputs too much, keeps resurfacing in new forms. As organizations have shifted to API-driven architectures and integrated AI systems that consume unstructured input, the attack surface has expanded dramatically.

API Attack Awareness: Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA) - Why It Tops the OWASP API Top 10

For this Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we thought it important to draw attention to some of the most common and dangerous API vulnerabilities. This week, we’re starting with Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA). BOLA vulnerabilities top the OWASP API Top Ten. And for good reason: they’re startlingly prevalent, remarkably easy to exploit, and can have devastating consequences. So, let’s explore what they are, why they matter, and how you can mitigate them.
