APIs are the backend framework for mobile and web applications, and businesses use them to connect services and transfer data. A compromised API can expose personal data, financial information, or other sensitive data.
API protection performs similar functions as a WAF; however, traditional WAFs do not typically provide sufficient coverage for API protocols or data flows given their unique nature. This has left a lot of applications with serious coverage gaps if only a WAF has been deployed.
