Revolutionizing API Security: A Seamless Integration with Levo.ai

Security teams face a critical challenge in the rapidly evolving digital landscape: building a comprehensive inventory of their applications and APIs. The adage holds – you can't safeguard what you're unaware of.

The Challenge of building API inventory

Security teams face a critical challenge in the rapidly evolving digital landscape: building a comprehensive inventory of their applications and APIs. The adage holds – you can't safeguard what you're unaware of.

The journey to a complete inventory of applications and APIs, however, is often anything but straightforward. Such an inventory often requires deploying tools to capture the API traffic from the backend servers, load balancers or API gateways. Capturing traffic from backend servers is effective since the tools can see everything. However, this complex process demands significant coordination among DevOps, SRE, and development teams. When these teams are already engaged in other high-priority projects, security initiatives can be sidelined for months, waiting for resources to become available.

This scenario is common. We understand the pressures on DevOps and development teams tasked with rolling out innovative features and ensuring the high availability of production systems. But what if there was a way for security teams to leapfrog these hurdles and jumpstart their API security efforts?
