In response to the growing concern of organizations in the face of security risks, HClsoftware, in collaboration with Salt Security, has announced HCL Appscan Api Securitya new solution aimed at protecting one of the most critical assets in the current digital environment: application programming interfaces.
Designed to offer total protection during the entire life cycle of the APIS, HCL Appscan Api Security Combine artificial intelligence, automated discovery and advanced dynamic analysis capabilities to identify real -time vulnerabilities. The tool promises to eliminate blind points that hinder the protection of these systems, also facilitating the detection of hidden or non -documented APIS.

One of the main capacities of this solution is the creation of a dynamic inventory of all API assets, an aspect that Colin Bell, director of HCL Appscan technology, considers key: “This continuous visibility allows security equipment to better understand the risks they face and act more quickly.”
The tool also facilitates the fulfillment of regulations such as GDPR, Hipaa or PCI DSS, thanks to its integration with real -time governance functions and its alignment with the OWASP Top 10 of vulnerabilities in APIS. “By joining our capabilities with those of HCl, we offer unprecedented visibility of the APIS surroundings,” said Michael Nicosia, Coo and Salt Security co -founder.
With this launch, HClsoftware reinforces its presence in the cybersecurity market, offering a solution adapted to the current panorama, where the APIs have become essential but also represent an increasingly critical attack surface for companies.
