API security testing is the process of validating that APIs are protected against abuse, misconfiguration, and sensitive data exposure. Unlike functional testing—which checks whether an API works—security testing looks for ways an API can be misused.
An API risk assessment is a systematic process for evaluating the APIs used across an organization.
