Key AppsFlyer challenges:
- Needed to detect and prevent attacks targeting the unique logic of the APIs at the core of its service
- Found that next-generation WAFs and bot mitigation solutions were not able to address the company’s requirements for API security
Key Salt use cases:
- Granular visibility: Salt provides automated discovery and granular details for all AppsFlyer APIs to enable a better understanding of the attack surface and risk
- Continuous discovery: Salt provides insight into when dev teams roll out new APIs so the security team has a full inventory
- Attack detection: Salt continuously monitors APIs in production and alerts on malicious activity so AppsFlyer can stop attackers before they succeed
- Attack prevention: Salt consolidated alerts provide the entire attacker timeline and give SOC teams context to take action quickly
- Remediation insights: Salt provides dev teams with insights to identify and eliminate potential vulnerabilities and make APIs more secure, before they’re launched into production use
