Akto is a proactive API security platform that finds auth flaws, misconfigurations, and business-logic risks across APIs.
Akto secures APIs by continuously testing them for the vulnerabilities that actually get exploited: broken authentication, BOLA/IDOR, mass assignment, rate-limit gaps, and misconfigurations. It builds an inventory from traffic and specs, runs tests in CI/CD and against staging, and covers modern stacks including GraphQL and gRPC. Its library of 800+ tests is mapped to OWASP API Top 10, giving security teams coverage without writing custom scripts.
Akto’s test library mirrors real attack patterns: broken object-level authorization, mass assignment, JWT weaknesses, and GraphQL-specific abuse. Because tests run against staging or in CI, findings reach developers before release instead of after exploitation.
The platform’s focus on business logic flaws — not just known CVEs — reflects how APIs actually get breached. By testing continuously rather than annually, teams catch regressions introduced by ordinary feature development.
Akto offers a free tier for small API estates. Paid plans scale by API count and add enterprise features and support.
Application security teams and API platform owners who want continuous, automated API security testing.
Yes, with a free tier; larger environments move to paid plans.
Akto integrates with CI/CD and ticketing systems, and its platform supports automation through APIs and webhooks.
Traditional scanners understand URLs; Akto understands API semantics, auth models, and business logic flaws.
Akto is designed for pre-production and continuous testing; environments are configured to match your risk posture.
Most teams connect traffic sources and run first tests within a day using built-in integrations.
Yes, GraphQL and gRPC are supported alongside REST APIs.
Tests verify exploitable flows end to end, keeping reported findings actionable.
Yes, security teams use Akto to automate API testing continuously.
The test library evolves with new attack patterns and API security research.
No, Akto works from API traffic and specifications, testing behavior rather than reading your codebase.
