We recently sat down with one of our Fintech customers to discuss their API security journey. Providing digital investment and transaction services, this Fintech company needed to solve for its rapidly expanding attack surface.   In this blog, we’ll summarize their journey with Traceable, providing highlights about how they discovered and secured tens of thousands of APIs in a distributed ecosystem, eliminating manual methods in favor of automatic API cataloging and protection.

Preventing data loss has become incredibly challenging in an API-driven world. Companies lockdown sensitive data internally with access controls, encryption, data classification and data loss prevention (DLP) platforms. They typically safeguard web applications with application security tooling or Web Application Firewalls (WAF). Cloud Security is often implemented with dedicated secure access service edge (SASE) architectures, including cloud access security brokers (CASBs).
