Why it matters
- OWASP API risks are common, but they need environment-specific validation.
- Inventory-only API tools do not prove abuse.
- Teams need findings that explain impact, reproduction and remediation.
OWASP API Testing
Validate OWASP API Top 10 style risks with context, evidence and attack-path relevance.

Capability architecture
OWASP API Testing: context, validation and evidence.
This capability contributes to the same platform outcome: understanding realistic attacker exposure and proving what matters.
ThreatCanary approach
- Run API-specific tests for BOLA, BFLA, broken auth, excessive data exposure, SSRF, unsafe consumption and misconfiguration.
- Use specs, credentials, traffic context and graph relationships to improve relevance.
- Link validated issues to owners, sensitive data and attack paths.
What it validates or reveals
- API Top 10 coverage.
- Confirmed API abuse paths.
- Developer-ready evidence and remediation.
Evidence and outputs
- A clear explanation of the exposure, affected assets and likely attack path.
- Reproducible evidence suitable for analysts, developers and risk owners.
- Prioritisation based on exploitability, business impact, sensitive data and chainability.
- Owner, remediation and workflow context that can move into Jira, Slack, SIEM or reporting.
