Top 6 Security Needs for APIs and Serverless Apps
APIs are the backbone of modern serverless applications, but they also introduce new security risks that traditional tools often miss. In this on-demand webinar, learn the six essential security capabilities for protecting serverless APIs, including automated API discovery, Shadow API detection, continuous security testing, and runtime protection across AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions.
Overview
Software engineers are now able to build applications that deliver scale and business value without consideration for the complexity of operations and security. However, to believe there are fewer security problems with serverless applications would be an unwise assumption. Security problems still exist with serverless, but our focus needs to shift particularly to the world of application programming interfaces (APIs) where sensitive data is prominently transferred in these modern application designs.
