De-risk APIs With Advanced API Vulnerability Testing

Qualys Web Application Scanning (WAS) introduces API scanning to enhance WAS with new QIDs, coverage of the OWASP API Top 10, and compliance verification for OpenAPI & Swagger. Qualys API security secures API assets by discovering API endpoints - internal, external, rogue or shadow, identifying vulnerabilities, ensuring compliance, prioritize with TruRisk and support shift-left and shift-right security practices for faster remediation.

Qualys has enabled us to integrate into build, test, operational and automation efforts, whether on premise or in the cloud.

Discover Shadow APIs

Discover every APIs in your environment, even the rogue or shadow ones. Import Swagger, Postman, Burp suite files. Categorize APIs based on sensitivity and exposure to the internet.

Detect PII Exposures

Check if PII, sensitive data, credentials, API keys or tokens are exposed through authentication tests to comply with data regulations like GDPR, PCI, and more.

Get Advanced API Testing

Continuously monitor with API vulnerability testing covering OWASP API Top 10, authentication, authorization, injection attacks, input validation issues & more.

Identify OpenAPI Drifts

Use active and passive compliance checks to detect any OpenAPI v3 deviations for API documentation & implementation.

Prioritize with TruRiskTM

Focus on risks based on overall business impact with TruRiskTM scoring using exploitability severity, business context, asset criticality and more.

Utilize AI-powered Scans

For large applications, use AI-assisted clustering to scan critical areas, achieving a 96% detection rate & 80% reduction in scan time.

Powered by the Enterprise TruRisk™️ Platform

The Enterprise TruRisk Platform provides you with a unified view of your entire cyber risk posture so you can efficiently aggregate and measure all Qualys & non-Qualys risk factors in a unified view, communicate cyber risk with context to your business, and go beyond patching to eliminate the risk that threatens the business in any area of your attack surface.

  • Integrate with Qualys CSAM, VMDR, TotalCloud for a unified view of API security.

Communicate API Risks with Continuous Monitoring

Detect OWASP API Top 10 vulnerabilities, PII exposures, OpenAPI drifts to communicate TruRiskTM.

DID YOU KNOW?

Non-compliance with data protection regulations can result in fines up to 4% of annual global turnover.

What does it contain?

  • Detect a broad range of API threats from OWASP API Top 10, injection attacks, authentication & authorization issus, PII and sensitive data exposures.
  • Ensure compliance with OpenAPI Specification v3 (OAS) with active and passive checks.
  • Utilize dashboards, application reports and TruRisk™ score for real-time actionable insights, audit logs and compliance status.

Eliminate API Risks with Remediation Integrations

Prioritize & eliminate API risks by supporting shift-left or shift-right practices with integrations.

DID YOU KNOW?

A single API vulnerability can cost an organization an average of $4 million in data breach expenses.

What does it contain?

  • Prioritize API risks based on TruRisk™ scores to address the most critical issues first.
  • Use CI/CD pipeline integrations (Shift-Left) for security checks during early development.
  • Use IT ticketing system integrations (Shift-Right) to automate remediation workflows.
  • Measure and improve your security program’s effectiveness over time with Track Time to Remediate (TTR).
