Why is multi-layered defense necessary?

  • Dealing with Diverse Threats
    As attack methods evolve, multi-layered defense can be used to flexibly respond to various threats
  • Redundancy
    With multiple layers of defense, even if one layer is breached, other layers will prevent threats, significantly reducing risk.
  • Customizable policies
    You can set policies specific to each defense layer, enabling flexible defense according to your business needs.
  • Real-time detection and response
    Rapid detection of abnormal traffic patterns and immediate response prevents damage from spreading
  • Performance optimization
    Utilizing Akamai's CDN service to distribute traffic load while ensuring security
  • Reduce operational costs
    By providing multiple layers of defense in one place, you can reduce the effort required for deployment and management, and improve cost efficiency.

Evolving API Attacks

API attacks are evolving, and the number of features and services required to properly protect APIs is also increasing.
Akamai API Security is a security platform that can provide total protection against these threats.

Evolving API Attacks

Business problems that can be solved

Not knowing what APIs your organization owns
Each department develops a web application separately, and we often see cases where APIs are frequently modified and added by the developers, or where testing and debugging environments are carelessly left behind even after use.
I don't know which APIs I need to protect
There is a challenge in that organizations are not able to identify which APIs are truly important and need to be protected, such as those that play important roles such as login functions or handle critical data such as personal information.
Not able to visualize and analyze API traffic
Not only may there be no system in place to visualize and detect unauthorized communications to APIs, but it is also possible that basic information such as the number of API calls and the amount of errors may not be grasped in the first place.
Unable to determine if API is vulnerable
There are no effective vulnerability assessment services that specialize in APIs, and APIs are released without knowing precisely whether they are vulnerable, which can result in them becoming targets of attacks, leading to information leaks and service outages.

Akamai API Security Platform

A platform with a full range of functions for comprehensively protecting APIs, including diverse data sources and asset management to understand APIs, vulnerability and configuration management to check for problems with API specifications, behavior detection that analyzes API traffic, and active testing to discover API vulnerabilities.
