API Security - 6 Best Practices to Follow

According to a recent report published by Micro focus, API vulnerability issues will be doubled in the next 4 years. Today’s businesses are constantly using APIs for better products and services, customer service, and competitive differentiation. API adoption is increasing due to its feasibility of connecting services, data transfer, and the smooth operation for any application. Apart from the adoption, there has been a serious concern in the cybersecurity industry about rising attacks on APIs. And this in return, is causing trouble for online businesses. API security is the need of the hour.


API security should focus on various strategies and solutions that complement the business logic while understanding the security vulnerabilities for better risk mitigation. For this, firms need to be aware about the optimal security practices that should be followed all-year round along with periodic testing. A comprehensive framework such as OWASP penetration testing can also help you test your APIs in a better way.
