At a surface level, APIs help businesses to connect applications and share data with one another.
The recent push to focus on API security comes at a critical time where more enterprises are relying on enterprise mobility, meaning increasing a reliance on mobile app connectivity.
Making matters more difficult for enterprises is that mobile applications - and especially the APIs that power them - are often more susceptible to cyberattacks than web pages on a computer.
Protecting enterprise mobile devices and data against API vulnerabilities.
These vulnerable APIs are not only a threat to enterprises' profits, reputation and viability, but also their sensitive data and those of their customers and partners.
A great step to take to better protect against vulnerable APIs is to develop a strategy where the data is separated from the device itself.
