Tackling the biggest challenges in API Discovery

Organizations struggle with real-time API discovery. Legacy platforms are unable to handle dynamic, complex enterprise environments.

Low Visibility

Large volumes and frequent modifications to APIs make it challenging for organizations to maintain a comprehensive inventory

Shadow APIs

Developers spin up APIs for their use. Often these APIs are unmonitored, exposed and unknown and become easy target for attackers.

Zombie APIs

API endpoints often become abandoned, outdated, or forgotten. Old API version such as v1, v2 APIs are often not deprecated properly.
