About this Webinar:

 APIs are the backbone of modern applications, enabling seamless data exchange and integration across platforms. However, they also present a significant attack surface for cyber threats. This panel will explore the evolving landscape of API security, addressing key challenges such as API inventory, authentication vulnerabilities, data exposure risks, and emerging attack vectors. Experts from multiple agencies and industry will discuss best practices for securing APIs, including implementing zero-trust principles, leveraging AI-driven threat detection, and ensuring compliance with security standards. Attendees will gain insights into real-world breaches, proactive defense strategies, and the future of API security in an increasingly interconnected digital world.
