What is Salt?

Salt is the only solution that continuously and automatically identifies every API present in your environment. It meticulously gathers detailed information regarding these APIs, allowing you to pinpoint vulnerabilities, evaluate risks, ensure their security, and keep them safeguarded as your environment evolves. This capability extends to the automatic discovery of both internal and external APIs. Additionally, you can collect intricate details such as parameters, their functions, and any sensitive data exposed, which is crucial for comprehending your attack surface, evaluating risks, and making strategic decisions on protection measures. Users of Salt have reported discovering between 40% to 800% more APIs than those documented, highlighting the prevalence of shadow APIs that can threaten an organization by disclosing sensitive information or personally identifiable information (PII). As cybercriminals have shifted their tactics beyond traditional attacks like SQL injection and cross-site scripting, they are now targeting vulnerabilities in API business logic. Given that every API is unique, it is essential that your defensive strategies are equally tailored to address these specific threats. Consequently, understanding the landscape of your APIs becomes vital for maintaining robust security.

What is Akto?

Akto is a rapid, open-source API security platform that enables users to set up in just one minute. Security teams utilize Akto to keep an ongoing inventory of APIs, assess them for vulnerabilities, and identify issues during runtime. The platform includes tests for all categories from the OWASP Top 10 and HackerOne Top 10, such as Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA), authentication flaws, Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and various security configurations. With its robust testing engine, Akto conducts a range of business logic tests by analyzing traffic data to discern API usage patterns, effectively minimizing false positives. Additionally, Akto supports integration with a variety of traffic sources, including Burpsuite, AWS, Postman, GCP, and various gateways, enhancing its usability across different environments. This adaptability makes Akto a valuable tool for ensuring the security of APIs in diverse operational settings.
