Compare Imvision vs. Salt

Enterprises implement robust measures to secure their APIs throughout their entire lifecycle, ensuring protection regardless of their location. Achieving comprehensive visibility is crucial, as it allows a deep understanding of the underlying business logic that drives these APIs. By conducting thorough analyses of full API payload data, organizations can identify endpoints, usage trends, expected workflows, and any potential exposure of sensitive information. Imvision enhances this process by enabling the discovery of hidden vulnerabilities that go beyond conventional rules, thereby thwarting functional attacks and facilitating proactive measures against potential threats. Moreover, the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) ensures high detection accuracy across large datasets while offering clear insights into the findings. This technology excels at recognizing ‘Meaningful Anomalies’ by interpreting API data as a language, thus revealing the functionalities of APIs through AI that models intricate data interrelations. It is also adept at identifying behavioral patterns that may attempt to tamper with the API logic at scale, allowing organizations to grasp anomalies more swiftly and in alignment with their business objectives. Ultimately, leveraging these advanced methodologies empowers enterprises to stay one step ahead of potential attackers while safeguarding their critical API infrastructure.

Only Salt continuously and automatically discovers all APIs. It captures granular details about APIs to help you identify blind spots, assess risk, protect APIs, and maintain APIs protected, even as your environment changes. Continuously and automatically discover all APIs internal and external. You can also capture granular details like parameters, parameter functions and exposed sensitive data to help understand your attack surface, assess risk, and make informed decisions about how to protect them. Salt customers have discovered anywhere from 40% to 800% more APIs that what was listed in their documentation. These shadow APIs pose a serious risk to organizations as they can expose sensitive data or PII. Bad actors attacking APIs have moved past traditional "one-and done" attacks like SQLi and XSS. They now focus on exploiting API business logic vulnerabilities. Your APIs are unique so attacks must be unique.
