Taming The Chaotic World Of API Security — Finding Your Path To Protection | An Imperva Story with Kunal Anand

A Their Story conversation with Alissa Knight and Imperva executive, Kunal Anand

The state of API Security is in constant flux, with traditional WAF technologies being paired with, and extended by, newer models of application-driven protections. With Gartner recognizing this trend and introducing a Web Application & API Protection market, what do two long-time API security leaders think about WAFs and their immediate and long-term limitations? More pointedly, why don't traditional WAFs work well when it comes to securing APIs?

We're glad you asked - that's precisely what Alissa Knight and Kunal Anand get into during this high-energy, in-depth conversation about the future of APIs and the future of API security in this latest Their Story with Imperva.

Listen in to this unscripted and incredibly passionate conversation to learn about their best practices and recommended approaches to API security. It may help you to change or tune-up, your perspective and take new actions.

A Their Story conversation with Sean Martin and Imperva executive, Kunal Anand

As digital consumers, we need APIs to beckon mobile apps and access the digital services we love. But, for companies, it's a new dimension of risk that many aren't prepared for. In part, because it's not always clear: who's responsible for securing the APIs?

Perhaps it's the engineers/developers. Maybe it's the InfoSec team. In some instances, there's a dedicated AppSec team that oversees this activity. Sometimes it's a combo of this group. But, unfortunately, because of the lack of clarity, sometimes it's nobody.

To help bring clarity to the chaos, we had Kunal Anand, CTO at Imperva, join us to help understand what organizations are up against and then help them find ways to operationalize API security.
