Long-term ROI benefits

Reduced the likelihood of catastrophic breaches
Preventing just one major API incident can save millions in legal, operational, and reputational costs.

Sustainable development practices
Security becomes integrated and automated, reducing reliance on manual processes or specialized individuals.

Lower regulatory and compliance exposure
With growing scrutiny around API security (e.g., PCI DSS 4.0, financial services requirements), automated posture management lowers compliance burden.
