About this Event
Presenter: Dan Barahona
Presentation: Why APIs Are Every Attacker's Favorite Target
APIs power virtually every web and mobile application, accounting for over 80% of all Internet traffic. And APIs are under attack. Gartner states APIs have become the “most frequent attack vector," resulting in hundreds of highly successful, high profile breaches. This API security presentation covers: 1) why attackers love APIs, 2) real-world breaches (and how they map to the OWASP API Security Top 10), and 3) best practices to keep APIs secure.
Presenter Bio: Dan Barahona is a cybersecurity leader with 25+ years of experience spanning vulnerability management, threat intelligence, SIEM, and API security, and has held senior leadership roles at APIsec.ai, Qualys, Anomali, and ArcSight/HP.
