APIs are carrying more and more sensitive organizational data than ever before. Salt is the only solution that governs and protects your APIs across the entire API Lifecycle.
APIs are built expressly to share a company’s most valuable data and services. This makes them a lucrative target for bad actors. We’ve already hit the tipping point — APIs are now THE way in.
Not only are APIs proliferating through organizations, but they are carrying more and more sensitive information. This extends the potential attack surface, making applications and data more susceptible to breaches, unauthorized access, and other cyber threats that want access to the information.
Most developers use GenAI to increase productivity. From a security perspective, the benefit has an unintended consequence; super fast creation and increased volume of APIs makes it challenging to discover and secure those APIs. Legacy technologies couldn't keep up before and are hopeless today.
The increase in APIs also brings heightened regulatory scrutiny. Ensuring compliance with data protection standards (like GDPR, HIPAA, etc.) becomes increasingly complex and critical. But a company's own policies are also under pressure with little technologies available to help.
Salt created the API security market and stands above other solutions in ease of use, time to value and key functional areas. Only Salt delivers the below.
It only takes a few minutes to see the Salt difference.

To keep pace with rapid API growth, Salt is the only solution with an integrated Policy Hub (like an app store for API governance policies) that allows you to deploy, track and manage policies in minutes. You can create your own quickly or enable any of the dozens of pre-built policies based on real world usage across various industries. You can rest assured you are complying with all internal and external security standards
Not all AI and ML systems are the same. Salt not only models attacks but more importantly, determines intent. No other API security solution is capable of delivering intent insights. Why is this important? With billions of API calls to sift through over extended periods of time, Salt is able to tell your team where to focus to reduce the risk to your organizations.
What does enterprise scale mean? It means your solution is able to scale past surface requirmenets to ensure you are deliveirng against the needs of the business. This scale includes privacy controls that adhere to all of the privacy regulations, granular access control based on roles and automated incidence response workflows.

In reality, most others do a portion of API security. But to remain relevant, get into a hot space, or grow their reach, vendors of all stripes are claiming they do API security. You've got the tough job of sorting through all the noise — you need to get clear on what API security really is and the architecture needed to do it right. Salt gives you complete API security.
Some of the ways development and security teams use the OAS and why it falls short when it comes to securing your APIs.

While API gateways play an important part in the overall API security strategy, they cannot protect against the top API threats, including those defined in the OWASP API Security Top 10.

Watch videoUnderstanding that attacks themselves are different when APIs are the target is an important starting point for learning how to defend against them. The game has changed — these attacks are rooted in finding business logic flaws, and most solutions aren't up to the task.
