ring their vulnerabilities, which leads to data breaches, application availability issues, and service disruptions. Therefore, enterprises need to have a robust security solution to ensure the uninterrupted operation and application availability of their APIs. Being among the top F5 gold partner in India, CubixTech provides cutting-edge protection through the F5 Distributed Cloud API Security.
Understanding the Need for API Security
APIs serve as data and functionality exchanges across applications but will become points for cyber attacks if poorly secured. Exploiting these risks include breaches and unauthorized access to data, as well as denial of service. Preventing damage, such as reputational and operational impairment, requires sound API security.
Introducing F5 Distributed Cloud API Security
F5 Distributed Cloud API Security is a comprehensive solution that provides discovery, governance, and protection for your APIs. Leveraging advanced AI and machine learning capabilities, it offers deep insights into API usage and potential threats, allowing organizations to identify shadow APIs and block attacks in real-time.
Key Features and Benefits
Automatic API Discovery: The solution detects and maps all APIs across your applications, including forgotten and shadow APIs, providing a complete view of your app ecosystem. This automatic discovery ensures no API goes unnoticed, reducing potential security gaps.
Schema Validation and Enforcement: OpenAPI specifications can be imported or generated dynamically through discovery into the solution, which creates and enforces a positive security model - only legitimate traffic to the APIs is allowed, which prevents risks created by unexpected inputs or malicious activities.
This detects and reports any exposures related to sensitive data exposures, PII, and relevant types of information related to those compliance frameworks, such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, or even GDPR. Following the exposure by the system can limit, mask, or completely block these and remain in strict compliance while assuring the protection of information privacy.
Machine Learning-Based Traffic Monitoring: Continuous monitoring by machine learning keeps the system with behavioural baselines, flagging and blocking suspicious activity over time. This way, emerging threats are detected and mitigated before they become active.
API Protection and Enforcement: The solution provides granular control to limit, control, and block API endpoints and malicious activities through a combination of in-line application and API security capabilities, including a robust Layer 7 policy engine.
