By scanning and evaluating the traffic to and from APIs, these tools help identify security vulnerabilities, support their remediation, and prevent unauthorized access and data breaches.
API security tools are important for organizations that rely on APIs for seamless integration and data exchange.

This ensures uninterrupted and secure API operations.
