REST, GraphQL & SOAP Assessments

API Security Testing

Safeguard the backbone of your digital architecture. Our specialized API security audits evaluate RESTful, GraphQL, SOAP, and microservice APIs to uncover broken authorization, data exposure, and logic flaws before malicious actors exploit them.

Why API Security Testing Is Essential

APIs transfer vast volumes of sensitive data between clients and backend microservices, creating high-value targets for modern cyberattacks.

Uncover BOLA & BFLA Flaws

Detect Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA) and Broken Function Level Authorization (BFLA)—the most prevalent and dangerous API vulnerabilities.

Microservice Interconnection

Ensure secure trust boundaries across internal and third-party microservices, preventing lateral movement and unauthorized backend data calls.

Prevent Data Over-Exposure

Identify raw JSON response payloads that leak excessive data properties, sensitive records, or unhashed internal IDs to unauthorized consumers.

Vulnerabilities We Uncover

Fully aligned with the OWASP Top 10 API Security standard.

Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA)
Broken Authentication & Token Flaws
Broken Object Property Level Authorization
Unrestricted Resource Consumption (Rate Limiting)
Broken Function Level Authorization (BFLA)
Unrestricted Access to Sensitive Business Flows
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via API
Security Misconfigurations & CORS Issues
Improper Inventory Management & Shadow APIs
Unsafe Consumption of APIs
JWT Parsing & Cryptographic Vulnerabilities
GraphQL Introspection & Batching Attacks

Our API Security Testing Methodology

A structured, rigorous manual and automated testing process tailored for complex API ecosystems.

Phase 01

Endpoint Discovery & Schema Mapping

We analyze OpenAPI/Swagger documents, Postman collections, and WSDL schemas to map all REST, GraphQL, and SOAP endpoints alongside authentication methods.

Phase 02

Authentication & Token Analysis

We evaluate OAuth 2.0 implementation, JWT signature validations, session expiration, token revocation, and multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement.

Phase 03

Authorization & Input Fuzzing

Engineers perform cross-user token swapping, parameter tampering, batch payload injections, rate-limit testing, and deep authorization checks across endpoints.

Phase 04

Reporting & Remediation Verification

We provide a comprehensive report detailing CVSS-scored vulnerabilities, clear reproduction steps, code-level remediation guidance, and a complimentary re-test.
