## The API Security Challenge: Bridging Visibility and Innovation

See How StackHawk Closes the Gap

Modern organizations face a growing gap between development velocity and security capabilities

- APIs are proliferating with microservices architecture and AI-generated code
- Security teams lack complete visibility into their evolving API landscape
- Development speed continues to accelerate with AI coding tools
- Traditional security approaches can't scale to match the pace of innovation

As this gap widens, organizations need a new approach to application security—one that maintains security rigor while matching the pace of innovation and provides visibility across the entire API ecosystem.

## What is Comprehensive
API Security?

Attack Surface Discovery

Runtime Testing & Remediation

Oversight & Continuous Visibility

### Attack Surface Discovery

StackHawk discovers your entire API landscape, revealing hidden APIs, sensitive data, and rapid changes.

Reveal Your Hidden APIs

### Runtime Testing & Remediation

Test your running APIs in CI/CD to uncover exploitable vulnerabilities, delivering fast, actionable insights so developers can fix issues instantly.

See Developer-First Security

### Oversight & Continuous Visibility

Real-time API visibility that begins with every commit. Manage Attack Surface coverage, testing frequency, and vulnerability remediation.

Transform Security Visibility

## Loved by Devs.
Trusted by AppSec.
Backed by Badges.

Our G2 badges aren’t just for show—they reflect real-world impact and the confidence developers and security teams have in StackHawk.

Read the Reviews

## Source Code is Your API Source of Truth

Unlike traditional tools that only see public endpoints, StackHawk analyzes your source code repositories to reveal your complete API landscape—including shadow APIs and sensitive data flows—then integrates testing directly into CI/CD pipelines. This approach ensures no API goes unprotected in an AI-accelerated world.

See the StackHawk Difference

## One Platform, Complete API Security.

StackHawk transforms fragmented security practices into a continuous, integrated approach that bridges the gap between development and security teams.
