How Checkmarx Brings API Security to Your Entire SDLC
A white paper on APIs and the tools AppSec teams need to keep them secureTrusted by The World's Leading Enterprises
A true shift-left approach to API security has been much needed in the AppSec space. As software teams rapidly increase their use of APIs in cloud-migration scenarios, they are outpacing their security teams’ ability to protect them – and attackers are taking notice.
Application security teams need to be able to track APIs throughout the SDLC, from development to production. This white paper explores current approaches to API security and how the Checkmarx approach differs in how it meets the challenge. It includes:
- The reality of API development
- Requirements for a holistic API security strategy
- Checkmarx API Security solution and how it fits with the Checkmarx One™ Platform
We’re in a stronger position today when it comes to open source supply chain or package threats because of Checkmarx One.

For the source code analysis, one of the biggest advantages of Checkmarx SAST is that it is super easy to set up a project. We didn’t need to change the structure of the repository.

We were thrilled to find Checkmarx, which helped us improve the SLA for identifying and remediating risk, reduce risk and the number of vulnerabilities, and eliminate high- and medium-risk issues.
