The common vector linking these breaches โ APIs. The scale and magnitude of these breaches are the reason API security has been launched into the forefront of enterprise security concerns โ now forcing us to rethink the way we approach API security as a whole.
OWASP Top 10 project has for a long time been the standard list of top vulnerabilities to look for and mitigate in the world of web applications.
APIs represent a significantly different set of threats, attack vectors, and security best practices. This caused the OWASP community to launch OWASP API Security project earlier this year.

- The OWASP API Security Top 10
- Real world breaches and mitigation strategies for each of the risks
