Safeguarding Businesses with Smartcomply's API Scanning Feature: Here's How We Do It

 



In late 2023, a regional fintech company suffered a breach that exposed thousands of customer records. The cause? A small, overlooked vulnerability in an API used to process mobile payments. The attackers didn’t need to breach the entire system, they simply found a crack in a single endpoint and slipped through.

The business faced regulatory fines, reputational damage, and experienced a drop in customer trust, all because a hidden threat went unnoticed.

At Smartcomply, we believe that security shouldn't stop at the surface. That's why our API Scanning Feature by Smartcomply Secure is designed to uncover hidden vulnerabilities before they become costly threats. We help businesses like yours safeguard their infrastructure, protect customer data, and stay compliant.


Here's Why API Security Can’t Be Ignored

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) power the digital backbone of modern businesses. From mobile apps and payment processors to inventory systems and CRMs, APIs are everywhere, and that makes them a prime target for cybercriminals. 

Common API vulnerabilities include:

  • Exposed data due to weak authentication

  • Broken access controls.

  • Injection attacks. 

  • Unsecured endpoints from third-party integrations. 

These risks are often hard to spot without the right tools and even harder to fix once exploited.
