VentureBeat, Tuesday, May 2,2023
Application security provider Data Theorem, announced the release of a new report in partnership with TechTarget's Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). ESG surveyed 397 respondents on cloud-native applications and API security and found that 92% of organizations experienced at least one API-related security incident in the last 12 months.
The report, scheduled to release on May 5, also revealed that 57% experienced multiple API security incidents, highlighting that many organizations still have a lot more to do to defend cloud-native applications and APIs against threat actors.
This comes just months after a hacker used a Twitter API vulnerability shipped in June 2021 (now patched) to compile and leak the account details and email addresses of 235 million users in January 2023.
