Why API Security Is the Foundation of Modern Application Protection

Cloud-native applications rely on APIs to function—and attackers know it. As architectures become more distributed and dynamic, traditional security tools can’t keep pace. Without continuous API security, every connection between microservices is a potential entry point for threat actors.

Download the white paper, API Security in the Cloud-Native Era, to learn how to protect APIs at scale—across every workload, every environment, and every phase of the application lifecycle.

Strengthen API Security from Discovery to Defense

Explore how to modernize your approach to API security with real-time visibility, continuous protection, and end-to-end coverage for APIs in cloud-native environments.

In this guide, you’ll learn:

  • Why traditional perimeter security tools fall short in protecting internal API traffic
  • The differences between API and application security—and why both matter
  • What makes automated discovery, runtime protection, and OWASP API Top 10 coverage critical to modern defenses
  • And more…

Protect What Connects Your Cloud

APIs are the connective tissue of modern applications—and one of the fastest-growing attack surfaces. The API Security in the Cloud-Native Era guide breaks down how to achieve visibility, apply continuous protection, and stop API-based threats before they cause damage.

Download the guide now to build a stronger API security strategy—backed by automation, context, and coverage.
