Acunetix

Acunetix is a renowned API security testing tool that assists enterprises in identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in online applications and APIs. The platform provides complete API discovery and automatic vulnerability scanning for REST, SOAP, and GraphQL APIs, guaranteeing that even hidden or undocumented endpoints are thoroughly examined. Acunetix supports a wide number of API specification formats, such as OpenAPI3, Swagger2, RAML, WADL, Postman collections, and WSDL, making it suitable for a variety of development contexts. Its powerful scanning engine replicates real-world attack routes to uncover important security flaws like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and weak authentication, and it generates extensive reports with actionable remedial advice for each vulnerability.​

Acunetix distinguishes itself with its smooth integration into DevSecOps processes, which include technologies such as Jenkins, Jira, and GitLab for continuous security testing across the software development lifecycle. The platform's ability to import API definitions and scan endpoints using HAR, Postman, Fiddler, or Burp Suite files speeds up the security assessment process.
