Extend authentication & authorization policies to APIs

So you secured your applications. Congrats! But you’re not done yet. You need to secure your APIs too.

Protection against API breaches

API security breaches have hit organizations across all industries. Even if your APIs are behind mobile apps or read only, don’t let a lack of API protection make you the next victim.

Modern API security

Implement API security best practices and modern identity frameworks like OAuth with ease. Create API authorization policies based on application, user context, and group membership to make sure only the right people get access.

Instead of spreading policies between your APIs, gateways, and applications, manage them from a single point

Security and dev, on the same page

Unite your security and development teams around a centralized place for all your API authorization policies. Think SSO for APIs.

Simplified authorization policies

Streamlining your policy creation, maintenance, and auditing makes your security team’s lives a whole lot easier. As authorization policies change over time, they can adjust them centrally, and all downstream applications can use the modified privileges.

More time for development

Your development team will thank you, too. They can hand off 100% of user management, authorization policy, and the resulting complexity. That means more time to focus on developing great apps.

Abstract the complexity of OAuth 2.0 from day-to-day application development

Implementing OAuth can be complex, and getting it wrong can compromise your apps and API
