As we stretch toward the end of June, we wanted to make a callback on all the new features our team worked hard on in May! Inspired by a round of wonderful events from BSides SF, Seattle, and Nashville to RSA, we’re excited to share these new improvements. Let’s dive in.
Improvements to API Inventory Dashboard
Akto now creates API groups in a completely automated way based on various criteria such as risk score, URL patterns, etc. Your security team can now act on your vulnerable APIs based on your prioritized API groups. See how.
Deploy Akto on a Hybrid SaaS Model
Akto’s recommended mode of deployment. This model allows you to take advantage of the scalability and cost-efficiency of SaaS while retaining control over specific aspects of your software environment. Read more on how to do this in 2 simple steps.
[New Test] Protect Your GraphQL APIs through Mass Assignment Testing
With the gaining popularity of GraphQL, Akto has developed a new test template to secure these APIs against Mass Assignment vulnerabilities. See how to test for this using Akto’s Test Editor.
