The thing I love most about Akto is how uncomplicated and effective it is. Ease of Use It is known for its easy and user-friendly interface enabling teams to monitor API security seamlessly with no tough learning curve. Ease of Implementation — Even within existing CI/CD workflows, it seamlessly blends into everything owing to its fast setup process. Akto provides good customer support with full knowledge and understanding of the problem, and helps you in resolving issues quickly at large. Frequency of Use – High, because it is instrumental in day-to-day activity and reliable. The Number of Features satisfy wide security requirements, and the Ease of Integration with other tools contribute to making Akto a versatile product for strong API security.

As we know that 'Akto is our all-in-one API Security Platform'. It covers a lot of different security vulnerabilities. The platform can handle large-scale API testing needs. One of the best things about Akto is its ability to automate the process of detecting and protecting APIs from vulnerabilities in real time.

The company has been impressed by Akto's engine, especially in the comparison to other products available in the market. The very outstanding features of Akto are deployment flexibilities, database, and its Microservices integrations. Moreover, the company's requirement is; it has to be deployed on-premise and everything must comply with the regulatory from the management. Akto's support several API architectures for instance, RESTful API, gRPC, SOAP and GraphQL. And currently, we are only leveraging the RESTful API which is the only our main architecture at the moment. The tool has data connectors, which it captures API traffic in real-time and provides feasible information of the API collections with its hostname. As it integrates into API discovery, for instance API testing for each collection or group or whole API endpoints with its specific hostname. This provides its flexibilities to Security Engineer, Developer, QA, and DevOps Engineer to test and review the outcome of each test results. Moreover, the API testing can be done vie CI/CD integration, API Curl request, Docker Image, CRON Job for Daily testing, or continuous testing. The reports are very comprehensive which they have both CSV, and PDF. Moreover, each test only useful with its detailed reports for engineers and developers to work and review them. With that being said, all those results we can have a weekly meeting with Akto's engineers to verify the API results, and we can define them as false positive or positive outcomes. Moreover, some specific vulnerabilities are very sophisticated which out of our levels of understanding, that is why working and improving the result with Akto's team is very crucial to achieve the common goals. While there are several additional features worth mentioning, we highly recommend trying Akto to experience its capabilities firsthand. And POC it on your requirements and criteria are recommended before onboarding with them. As it is the DAST & API Security to provide function to scan and features to resolve the issues, you should understand your business needs first. Last but not least, Akto offers a one-month POC, allowing businesses to test and evaluate the tool base on their unique criteria, compliance requirements, and regulations.
