ThreatCanary discovers APIs, models how they behave, and validates how they can be abused across authentication, authorisation, data exposure and business logic.
API inventory is enriched with identity, authorisation, data sensitivity and observed business logic before testing is prioritised.

ThreatCanary connects observed routes, behaviour, identity and data to validate abuse paths across the live API surface.
Direct answers on scope, evidence, safety controls and how ThreatCanary differs from tools you already run.
ThreatCanary discovers internal, external, documented and undocumented APIs across API gateways, OpenAPI specifications, logs, source repositories and exposed services. Because discovery is not limited to what is documented, it surfaces endpoints that never made it into a spec or inventory — which is typically where the least-tested attack surface sits.
Shadow APIs are endpoints that are undocumented or operating outside governance — often deployed without being registered in any inventory. Zombie APIs are deprecated or forgotten endpoints that remain reachable after they were meant to be retired. Both are risky precisely because they are unmonitored and rarely tested, and ThreatCanary detects and validates both.
Yes. ThreatCanary validates OWASP API Security Top 10 style risks with environmental context and attack-path relevance rather than generic pass/fail checks. That includes authentication and authorisation testing covering how APIs enforce identity, sessions, roles, tenant isolation and object-level access — the broken-object-level and function-level authorisation classes that generic scanners tend to miss.
Business logic testing is a core part of the API security capability, covering API workflows, role boundaries and abuse paths that do not map cleanly to a CVE or scanner signature. Because ThreatCanary models how each API actually behaves — call sequences, authentication flows and data exposure — it can test whether a workflow can be abused, not only whether a known vulnerable component is present.
OpenAPI mapping compares observed API behaviour against published specifications, detects drift where deployed APIs diverge from their documented contract, and can generate usable API contracts where documentation is missing. Drift matters because security testing and governance based on an outdated spec will systematically miss whatever changed.
