Overview
In today’s interconnected world, securing your APIs is critical to your business’s success. Cyber threats targeting vulnerabilities in your APIs can lead to data breaches, financial losses, system compromise, and serious reputational damage.
At VulnArmor Tech, our API Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT) service identifies, evaluates, and helps mitigate security risks in your APIs - whether they are public, private, partner-facing, or internal. We ensure your APIs are fortified against evolving cyber threats, safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining business continuity.
What We Do
Our API VAPT service is designed to thoroughly assess your APIs for weaknesses, misconfigurations, and areas where attackers might attempt to breach your systems. We don’t just run basic scans, we simulate real-world attack scenarios to see how your APIs stand up against actual threats. This hands-on approach ensures your APIs are secured and protected against vulnerabilities before hackers can exploit them.
Here's how we do it:
01
Information Gathering & Discovery
We start by collecting detailed information about your APIs, including endpoints, authentication mechanisms, data flow, and integration points. This helps us map out your API environment and identify potential areas where attackers might gain access.
02
Vulnerability Assessment
We perform a detailed assessment using a combination of automated tools and manual techniques to find vulnerabilities like broken authentication, improper access controls, excessive data exposure, and injection flaws. We align our assessment with the OWASP API Security Top 10 to ensure a thorough evaluation.
03
Penetration Testing
Our team simulates real-world attacks on your APIs to test for vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors. We focus on critical areas like authentication bypass, privilege escalation, data leakage, and injection attacks to ensure your APIs are resilient under threat.
04
Comprehensive Reporting
After testing, we provide a detailed report outlining all identified vulnerabilities, their potential impact, risk ratings, and actionable remediation steps to strengthen your API security posture.
05
Re-testing & Validation
After you implement the recommended fixes, we conduct re-testing to validate that all identified vulnerabilities have been properly addressed, ensuring your APIs meet industry best practices and security standards.
How VAPT Protects Your Business
Our API Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT) service not only secures your APIs but also empowers your business to grow with confidence.
