Hello!
Secure Your APIs. Strengthen Your Digital Backbone.
In today’s interconnected digital world, APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) serve as the core of modern applications enabling communication between web, mobile, and cloud platforms. However, these same APIs often become prime targets for attackers who exploit weak authentication, poor input validation, and misconfigured access controls. A single API vulnerability can expose sensitive data, disrupt operations, and compromise user trust.
PrudentBit’s API Penetration Testing service helps organisations identify and remediate vulnerabilities across their APIs before they can be exploited. Our certified experts simulate real-world attack scenarios to evaluate the security of your REST, SOAP, GraphQL, and other API frameworks ensuring robust protection against modern cyber threats.
What Is API Penetration Testing?
API Penetration Testing is a focused security assessment designed to uncover vulnerabilities in APIs that connect your applications, users, and data. Unlike traditional application testing, API testing focuses on endpoints, authentication mechanisms, request/response handling, and data exchange security.
At PrudentBit, we go beyond automated scanning our experts perform deep manual testing to identify business logic flaws, data exposure risks, and chained vulnerabilities that automated tools often miss.
Our API Testing Approach
Discovery & Mapping
We begin by identifying and mapping all active API endpoints, understanding their purpose, data flow, and authentication mechanisms (OAuth, JWT, API keys, etc.).
Authentication & Authorisation Testing
We assess how APIs handle authentication and role-based access to detect broken access controls, privilege escalation, and token manipulation issues.
Input Validation & Injection Testing
Our experts test for injection attacks (SQL, command, XML, JSON) and improper input handling that could lead to data breaches or system compromise.
Data Exposure & Information Leakage
We identify insecure endpoints or verbose error messages that may expose sensitive data, configuration details, or internal logic.
Rate Limiting & DoS Testing
We evaluate API resilience against brute force and Denial-of-Service attempts, ensuring your APIs can handle unexpected or malicious traffic safely.
Business Logic & Workflow Testing
We simulate misuse of legitimate features to uncover logic-based vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to bypass intended controls or manipulate data flow.
Reporting & Remediation Guidance
You receive a detailed report with each vulnerability ranked by severity, along with practical remediation steps and best practices to fortify your APIs.
