Akto API Security Platform Features

Provides an environment for users to rest their API's functionality, efficiency, and data accuracy.

Allows users to secure access to data. Provides additional support for security practices like IP whitelisting, attack mitigation, and data encryption.

Allows administrators to create APIs that utilize multiple backend resources and databases.

Expands functionality while maintaining balanced loads. Serves growing demand without reducing functionality.

Limits access to suspicious visitors and monitors for traffic spikes to prevent overloads like DDoS attacks.

Records details related to usage and functionality for analytics and reporting.

Detects anomalies in functionality, user accessibility, traffic flows, and tampering.

Allows administrators to manage pricing and billing of API integration with customer applications.

Provides a dashboard for users to manage, govern, and secure their API.

The functionality at which APIs integrate with and perform within third-party applications.

Translates complex datasets and backend systems into formats that can be interpreted by applications.

Provides additional functionality for increased security, analytics, monitoring, and other features not included in the native feature set.

Application Programming Interface Specification for how the application communicates with other software. APIs typically enable integration of data, logic, objects, etc. with other software applications.

Provides the ability to extend the platform to include additional features and functionalities

Tools to visualize and analyze data.

Track issues as vulnerabilities are discovered. Documents activity throughout the resolution process.

Scans applications and networks for known vulnerabilities, holes and exploits.

Scans application source code for security flaws without executing it.

Allows users to perfrom hands-on live simulations and penetration tests.

Runs pre-scripted security tests without requiring manual work.

Allows users to test applications for specific compliance requirements.

Scans functional applications externally for vulnerabilities like SQL injection or XSS.

The rate at which scans accurately detect all vulnerabilities associated with the target.

The rate at which scans falsely indicate detection of a vulnerability when no vulnerabilitiy legitimately exists.

Detects new and undocumented assets as they enter a network and add them to asset inventory.

Detects anomalies in functionality, user accessibility, traffic flows, and tampering.

Provides results of the simulation and reveals potential security gaps or vulnerabilitites.

Tools to track and implement required security policy changes.

Monitors data quality and send alerts based on violations or misuse.

Allows users to set customizable API verification settings to improve security requirements.

Runs pre-scripted security tests without requiring manual work.

Abilities to set standards for network, application, and API security risk management.

Capability to perform complex tasks without constant human input
