What is API Security Testing?
An API Application Penetration Test is a specialized security assessment focused on identifying vulnerabilities within Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). It simulates real-world cyberattacks to uncover security weaknesses that could lead to data breaches, financial loss, or reputational damage.

Planning and Reconnaissance
The assessment begins by defining scope, objectives, and rules of engagement. We gather detailed intelligence including API endpoints, base URLs, documentation files (Swagger / OpenAPI specifications), supported HTTP methods, authentication & authorization mechanisms, data formats (JSON, JSON, XML), and third-party integrations. This phase ensures full visibility into the API ecosystem before testing begins.
