Just as cloud computing initially seeped into organizations under the cloak of shadow IT, application programming interface (API) adoption has often followed an organic, inexact, and unaudited path.
IT leaders know they’re benefiting from APIs -- internal, via third parties, and often outwardly exposed -- they just don’t know where they are, how much they support key services, and how they’re being used … or abused.
As a result, developers and business architects alike don’t know how organically adopted technologies like APIs are adversely impacting their businesses -- until something like the Log4j and Log4shell vulnerabilities have run amok.
Stay with us now as we explore how API-intensive and API-experienced businesses are bringing maturity to their APIs’ protections through greater observability, tracing, and usage analysis.
To learn how Twitter, a poster child for business-critical API use, makes the most of APIs by better knowing and managing them across their full lifecycles, we’re joined by several guests to discuss the latest in API maturity: Please welcome Rinki Sethi, Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Twitter, and Alissa Knight, recovering hacker and partner at Knight Ink. The discussion is moderated by Dana Gardner, Principal Analyst at Interarbor Solutions. [Sponsor: Traceable AI.]
