F5 Tech on Tap 2023

APIs are the lifeblood of the internet today. Everything from booking flights to reading your daily newsfeeds is all made possible by the growth of data sharing using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). With the growth of modern applications, developers often unintentionally leak sensitive datasets. The proliferation of APIs has marked them as a prime target for malicious actors and nation-states leaving the DoD and the War Fighter vulnerable to a data breach, fraud, or worse.

During this Tech on Tap, you will learn:

• A deeper understanding of the key concepts and tools necessary for securing API in modern authentication and security techniques
• Automated Policy Generation - based on App-to-App and API-to-API patterns
• How to gain confidence to implement secure APIs in your projects and environments
• How to visualize API Usage
• API Endpoint Identification, Mapping, and Protection for your Distributed Cloud Architectures
• How APIs can power event-driven automation for security, compliance, ITSM, remediation and other use cases
• How AI can accelerate your automation journey

We will also demonstrate a live demo with some live hacks performed on real websites.
