What is API Security Software for NGINX?

API security software is designed to protect APIs from security threats such as unauthorized access, data breaches, and denial-of-service attacks. These tools monitor, authenticate, and secure the connections between APIs and the systems they interact with, ensuring that only authorized users and systems can access the data or services offered by the API. Features typically include encryption, rate limiting, authentication (such as OAuth, JWT), API traffic monitoring, threat detection, and automated security testing. API security software is crucial for businesses that rely on APIs to connect with third-party services, mobile apps, or microservices, as it helps mitigate risks and maintain data integrity.

    Theom

    Theom

    Theom

    Theom is a cloud data security product that discovers and protects all data in cloud stores, APIs, and message queues. Like a bodyguard who closely follows and protects a high-value asset, Theom ensures controls follow the data regardless of how it is stored or accessed. Theom identifies PII, PHI, financial information, and trade secrets using agentless scanning and NLP classifiers, which support custom taxonomies. Theom discovers dark data, data that are never accessed, and shadow data, data whose security posture is different from the primary copy. Theom pinpoints confidential data, e.g., developer keys, in APIs and message queues. Theom estimates the financial value of data to help prioritize risks. Theom maps the relationships between data, access identities, and security attributes to uncover the risks to data. Theom shows how high-value data is accessed by identities (users and roles). Security attributes including user location, atypical access patterns, etc.
