API Gateway vs. API Security #apisecurity #cybersecurity #architecture #devsecops
Your API Gateway Is Not an API Security Solution Confusing API management with API security is a costly and dangerous mistake.

It routes traffic but doesn't inspect payloads for complex attacks. It manages access but can't detect business logic abuse.
