API Intelligence
Use AI for API traffic visibility, anomaly detection and threat blocking
What is API Intelligence?
API intelligence helps you boost the security and governance of your API infrastructures by securing your APIs with greater visibility into traffic, anomaly detection and threat blocking.
How Does API Intelligence Benefit My Business?
Unified View of API Traffic
Bring all your traffic into a single pane of glass where you can get a unified view of your API activity across all gateways and clouds and discover shadow, forgotten or out-of-date APIs while gaining deep insights.
Block Cyberattacks on APIs
By differentiating between good and bad API traffic behavior using artificial intelligence, you can detect and block constantly changing potential threats to your APIs in order to protect your applications and data.
Expose Anomalous API Behaviors
Detect abnormal API behaviors from bugs or misconfigurations that could lead to data leaks or other mishaps, while monitoring for misuse or abuse from partners and third-party application developers accessing APIs.
What Capabilities Does Ping API Intelligence Offer?
Ping’s API intelligence solution enables:
API traffic visibility and automated API discovery
Artificial intelligence to learn traffic on each API
Automated attack blocking
Dashboards and in-depth reports for audits plus forensic and governance reports
How API Intelligence Works
In-Depth Traffic Visibility
Dashboards provide a unified view of discovered APIs, detailed API activity, attack information and report generation.
Learn API Traffic Behavior
Use AI models to distinguish good and bad API traffic without having to write policies, rules or code.
Detect and Block Attacks
Find and automatically block anomalous behaviors that represent potential attacks on your APis
Deep Visibility into API Activity
Defending against today’s evolving vulnerabilities requires deep visibility into all API activity. API intelligence gives you insight into all API activity using AI/ML to detect anomalous traffic behavior. This enhances security while making it easy to generate reports, conduct forensic investigations and analyze usage trends.
Learn Traffic Behaviors to Detect and Block Threats
The methods bad actors are using to target APIs are constantly evolving, making it difficult to detect with traditional API security tools. Ping’s API intelligence solution uses AI to detect anomalous activity on your APIs and block it to stop a potential attack or abuse.
Learning API traffic behavior enables you to be able to detect and automatically block API attacks including:
Authentication System Attacks
Data and Application Attacks
Targeted API DoS/DDoS Attacks
Prioritize API Security and Governance
Securing APIs starts with API gateways and web application firewalls (WAF) to provide access control and OWASP Top 10 protection. However, these tools can’t provide deep traffic knowledge to detect anomalous API activity. API intelligence gives you the in-depth insights to detect and block attacks and misuse.
Unified View of API Traffic
APIs are deployed across multiple cloud environments, data centers and gateways to meet business needs. Blindspots can easily form where you can’t see how your APIs are being accessed and the development of shadow APIs.
Ping’s API Intelligence solution can be integrated with existing gateways to bring traffic into a single view to monitor your entire API infrastructure.
Ping Products That Enable API Intelligence
