Topics:
- Why is API security hot now? What happened that made it a priority for many?
- Is API security different from application security? Doesn't the first "A" in API stand for application?
- What are the real threats to exposed APIs?
- APIs are designed for automated use, so how do you tell automated use from automated abuse / attack?
- What are the biggest challenges that companies are having with API security?
- What are the components of API security? Is there a “secure by default API”? API threat detection?
- Just like cloud in general, API misconfigurations seem to be leading to security problems, are APIs hard to configure securely for most organizations?
