API discovery: How it works + best practices
API discovery is the process of finding, mapping, and cataloging every single API across your entire digital estate, including your public-facing cloud accounts and your on-premises data centers.

API discovery is the process of finding, mapping, and cataloging every single API across your entire digital estate, including your public-facing cloud accounts and your on-premises data centers.
In this article we'll cover a tried-and-true governance strategy, a practical five-layer operating model, and guidance on how to operationalize it using the right people, processes, and platforms.
La sicurezza del cloud si riferisce a un insieme di criteri, controlli, procedure e tecnologie che lavorano insieme per proteggere i sistemi, i dati e l'infrastruttura basati sul cloud.
Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) descrive il processo di rilevamento e correzione continui dei rischi negli ambienti e nei servizi cloud (ad esempio bucket S3 con accesso di lettura pubblico). Gli strumenti CSPM valutano automaticamente le configurazioni cloud rispetto alle best practice del settore, ai requisiti normativi e alle policy di sicurezza per garantire che gli ambienti cloud siano sicuri e gestiti correttamente.

eBPF provides deep visibility into network traffic and application performance while maintaining safety and efficiency by executing custom code in response to the kernel at runtime.
SAST (Static Application Security Testing) analyzes custom source code to identify potential security vulnerabilities, while SCA (Software Composition Analysis) focuses on assessing third-party and open source components for known vulnerabilities and license compliance.
La gestione delle vulnerabilità comporta l'identificazione, la gestione e la correzione continue delle vulnerabilità negli ambienti IT ed è parte integrante di qualsiasi programma di sicurezza.
IDOR (insecure direct object reference) is an access control flaw that leaks data when apps skip authorization checks. See how IDOR works and how to prevent it.
AI tokenomics, short for “token economics,” is the study and management of how large language models (LLMs) and other generative AI systems produce, price, and consume tokens.
A penetration testing (or pen test) methodology is a structured, repeatable framework that governs how ethical hackers plan, execute, document, and report a pen testing engagement.
API protection is how you discover, harden, and monitor APIs so attackers cannot abuse application logic or data. Learn risks, controls, and practices.
A cloud access security broker (CASB) functions as a central policy enforcement point positioned between users and cloud-based applications.
Broken access control lets users exceed their permissions and ranks as OWASP A01. Learn the types, real examples, and how to prevent it in code and cloud.
Kubernetes networking gives every pod a unique IP on a flat network so pods, services, and external traffic communicate without NAT. Learn how it works.
API gateways route, authenticate, and control traffic between clients and backend services. Learn how they work, their benefits, and their security limits.
API testing verifies that your APIs return the right data, perform well, and stay secure. Learn the types, tools, testing process, and key best practices.
Container escape is when an attacker breaks out of a container’s isolation to gain unauthorized access to the host system.
I guardrail dell'IA (detti anche guardrails LLM o guardrails GenAI) sono controlli preventivi di sicurezza che limitano il comportamento di un sistema IA entro limiti politici definiti.
External vulnerability scanning is a way to find weaknesses in your public-facing systems by testing them from outside your network. This means you see your environment the same way an attacker on the internet would see it.
