API Security Scanning
Continuously discover, test, and secure your APIs. Detect authentication flaws, broken authorization, injection risks, and misconfigurations before attackers exploit them.
The problem
APIs are the new attack surface.
Modern applications expose more APIs than ever — internal, external, and third-party. Many lack proper authentication, authorization, and input validation. Shadow APIs and undocumented endpoints create blind spots that scanners and traditional testing often miss.
One operating picture
One scan. Complete API visibility.
MadStack continuously discovers and tests your APIs so security risks are found early — across REST, GraphQL, and other interfaces.
Discover all APIs
Automatically find documented and shadow APIs across your environment, including undocumented endpoints.
Test for real risks
Detect broken authentication, authorization flaws, injection, excessive data exposure, and misconfigurations.
Continuously monitor
Keep scanning as APIs change so new endpoints and regressions are caught quickly.
✦ What gets detected
Findings, ranked by what matters.
Prioritized by exploitability, data sensitivity, and potential business impact — so teams fix the most dangerous API risks first.
!
High
Excessive data exposure, weak rate limiting, or insecure object-level authorization.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
We support REST APIs, GraphQL, and common API gateways. Scans can cover both public and authenticated endpoints.
Yes. MadStack discovers APIs from traffic, specs, and runtime behavior — including endpoints that are not listed in your documentation.
You can run API scans in your pipeline so new endpoints and regressions are tested before they reach production.
