A recent survey from Gartner forecasts that worldwide end-user spending on public cloud services will total $679 billion in 2024, and that number is expected to jump to $1 trillion in 2027. Businesses left and right are moving to the cloud. But as they make their move, the old ways of protecting data—like building a virtual wall around your data (“perimeter security”)—are proving inadequate.

Test API specification With the growing footprint of APIs, there is a strong need for secure-by-design APIs. A design blueprint of an API would be a helpful start in determining the security standard of an API. Fortunately, APIs have that blueprint known as an OpenAPI Specification. API Specifications play a crucial role in ensuring the security and functionality of APIs.
