While APIs enable innovation, they’re increasingly targeted as a pathway to data. API abuses are often carried out through automated attacks, in which a botnet floods the API with unwanted traffic—seeking vulnerable applications and unprotected data. In this discussion, Karl Triebes shares what you need to know about the automated bot threats targeting your APIs with guidance on how to protect your applications and APIs from these attacks.
