apPosture API Security
Baku, Azerbaijan
What it is
apPosture API Security inventories API endpoints and helps teams prioritize risks by combining public exposure, sensitive data, and authentication status into a single verdict. Endpoint labels show whether findings are linked to source code and runtime observations, source code alone, or runtime alone. Discovery uses SAST attack-maps, DAST crawling, an attached OpenAPI specification, and external subdomain probing. Listed coverage includes OpenAPI import, GraphQL, gRPC, HTTP/2, h2c, and REST. Teams can compare an OpenAPI specification with running endpoints to identify documented, shadow, declared-untested, and authentication-drift states. Runtime correlation ingests existing access logs out of band rather than inline with requests. The product offers API-scoped compliance across seven frameworks and SARIF export. Deployment options include self-hosted, customer-cloud, and dedicated managed instances; self-hosted use relies on a local LLM and needs no outbound connection after setup. Pricing states no free tier, includes a 30-day proof of concept, and starts at $35/mo (annual).
For and against
For
- Compares OpenAPI specifications with running endpoints.
- Covers GraphQL, gRPC, HTTP/2, h2c, and REST.
- Correlates runtime data from existing access logs.
- Supports self-hosting with a local LLM.
Against
- No free tier is listed.
- Runtime protection is listed as unavailable.
- Included scan targets: 0 targets.
The verdict
apPosture API Security combines endpoint discovery, risk prioritization, and contract comparison with multiple deployment choices. Pricing and included scan-target limits are important to clarify before choosing an edition.
Who it suits
It suits teams that need API discovery, risk prioritization, specification checks, and API-scoped compliance. Self-hosting is an option for organizations that want deployment in their own environment.
