API Scanning

Eliminate the noise and manual work from traditional API scanning. Get back time to focus on what's truly important.

Setup without a headache

Step 1

Decide what to scan

Simply create a new API Scan Profile and add your OpenAPI spec file.

Step 2

Customize your scans

Configure any authentication needed, set a scan schedule, and setup and test operations.

Dynamic API scanning at scale, without the noise

Dynamic on a new level

Instead of a fixed set of conditions for scans, our engine randomizes and rotates payloads with every scan. Giving you a more accurate, ongoing assessment even against more static targets.

Fast testing on a massive scale

We built out testing for scale. For prompt injection, we can generate a staggering number of payload permutations, exceeding 922 quintillion in theory. For command injections, we leverage a comprehensive library of over 330k payloads.
