TechCircle published an article titled “Why Enterprises Are Securing the Wrong Front Door: The API Security Crisis” highlighting the growing risks around unsecured and shadow APIs. The piece cites industry leaders on how API blind spots, misconfigurations, and lack of governance are fueling breaches, with nearly 60% of application layer attacks now involving APIs.

Rizwan Patel, Head of Information Security and Emerging Technology at Altimetrik, shared his perspective on the future of defenses: “Complete API visibility remains aspirational for most enterprises. To counter this, we’re leveraging Agentic AI systems that continuously explore, reason, and share discoveries across environments—moving toward a future where APIs become increasingly self-healing.”

The article underscores that elevating API security to a board-level priority, adopting secure-by-design principles, and leveraging emerging AI systems will be critical in safeguarding enterprises.
