APIs are Top Cybersecurity Priority for Most Organizations, Yet 40% Do Not Have an API Security Solution

New research conducted at RSA Conference 2023 by Traceable found that while API security remains a top cybersecurity concern this year, there is still an alarming lack of implementation for most companies.

The study also revealed that companies are struggling with unchecked API sprawl, lack of clarity on who owns API security, and respondents revealing they do not baseline behavior as part of their API security capabilities.
