Decoding API Security
When it comes to access points from a hacker’s perspective, APIs are high on the list. The API framework is such that it makes a great target for hackers who want to get at application logic or other sensitive information. With SharkStriker API Penetration testing services, you will essentially be testing the server-side of your application for vulnerabilities residing in backend application logic and the API source code.
Having an insecure and incomplete API configuration is like inviting attackers to penetrate your network. While APIs are prevalent and ubiquitous to establish and enhance operational efficiencies, it is up to you to comprehend the attack surface and secure them. Our vast array of API tests and tools can help you reap the benefits of a secure API implementation, be it REST (Representational State Transfer) or SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).

The VAPT Process

Data Gathering and Analysis
Our API VAPT testers use automated tools and techniques and combine them with their own manual expertise to get a thorough understanding of all APIs used by your organization and also third-party services.

Configuration Evaluation
Our build and configuration team undertakes a systematic analysis of your APIs to identify vulnerabilities across the interface and its architecture through comparison with standardized baseline API settings.

Vulnerability exploitation
Our ethical hackers get into the act to attack these vulnerabilities to judge the nature of these vulnerabilities and list them according to remediation priority.

Reporting Vulnerabilities
A formal report is provided that fully documents the number of vulnerabilities, their seriousness, and any other information that will help understand them better.

Remedial Action
We undertake action that helps plug security holes across your APIs and decrease the level of exposure and risks.
The SharkStriker Approach
We offer API penetration service that deliver holistic information on all the API weaknesses in an extremely planned manner that takes cognizance of each and every aspect of the interface, architecture and data flow.
