Security researcher David Sopas has published a new open-source project: MindAPI, a mind map with resources for making API security research easier.

"After years of using it, I decided to implement my API security research experience and apply it on something that I could share not only with the infosec community, but also with developers."

About MindAPI. API security concerns are hindering new application rollouts.

"This a never-ending project. New open-source tools are being released each day, new API technologies are being created, and MindAPI needs to be updated to include them," he added.

Any additional advice for researchers looking into API security?

"Start with the OWASP API security project. Following the most common vulnerabilities will help finding issues on an API," he said.
