API Hacking and Securing
Presentation by Sam Stepanyan

APIs are the backbone of modern software development, allowing you to build innovative applications that seamlessly integrate across ecosystems. As your API becomes the lifeblood of your application, it becomes a prime target for attackers. We'll explore the latest trends in API hacking, including common vulnerabilities, attack vectors, and real-world examples of API breaches. We'll look at best practices which can help to secure your APIs.
