As businesses rely more on APIs, attackers are quick to turn that trust into opportunity. Among the most dangerous and difficult-to-detect threats are business logic exploits, which let cybercriminals manipulate legitimate functionality to gain unauthorized access, exfiltrate data, or disrupt operations. These attacks often slip past traditional defenses unnoticed, making them a growing concern for security teams.

Infostealers threaten corporate security, Google observes 75 zero-day exploits in 2024, and Gremlin Stealer appears in an underground forum.

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region plays a vital role in the petroleum industry, with Saudi Arabia ranking among the world's top 10 oil producers by daily output.

Picture this: your vendor’s latest security audit just landed in your inbox, and you spot multiple failure points. What’s your immediate action plan?
