API Security
APIs account for a growing share of internet traffic, and attackers have noticed. In 2025, APIs accounted for 17% of all published security vulnerabilities, and 43% of newly added CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities were API-related, according to 2026 API ThreatStats Report. Between misconfigured authorization controls, exposed business logic, insecure API integrations, and shadow endpoints that never made it into documentation, the average enterprise API surface presents dozens of entry points

When it comes to securing applications and APIs, the best API security testing tools are indispensable. These advanced solutions detect vulnerabilities by continuously scanning for weaknesses and simulating real-world attacks. But how do you choose between all API security testing vendors? Agentless API security tools are transforming application security by overcoming the pitfalls of traffic-based solutions like Noname security (part of Akamai) or Salt Security, which burden teams with long s

Testing APIs for Business Logic vulnerabilities is hard. Actually, this is a mission that old-school DAST solutions like ZAP (formerly OWASP ZAP) cannot handle. I'm Antoine Carossio, passionate about Computer Science for more than 15 years now and cofounder & CTO of Escape. With my team, we've spent 3 years building a proprietary algorithm capable of finding Business Logic vulnerabilities in all API types, especially in the most recent ones like REST & GraphQL. However, simply stating its exis

Hey there, With Halloween around the corner, what’s scarier for organizations than vulnerabilities in their web applications? And it's even scarier when the development of these applications is in the hands of users not familiar with security practices. This year, the Escape research team has focused on a growing area of concern: vibe-coded applications. Purpose-built platforms like Lovable.dev, Base44.com, and Create.xyz have democratized application development, enabling non-developers to d

As we head into 2025, planning a robust security budget is more critical than ever. According to Forrester's latest Budget Planning Guide for Security and Risk Leaders, one element stands out as indispensable: API security. APIs form the backbone of modern digital interactions, connecting services, platforms, and users. However, this growing reliance has also made them a prime target for attackers. Just in Australia, for example, new research by Thales has found that vulnerable APIs and bot at
