Securing the last mile between Agents & APIs
Govern how AI agents design, build, and execute against your APIs.

Innovation & Security Hand in Hand

As enterprises move toward an AI-driven future, a new security challenge is emerging: how to safely allow AI agents to interact with core business systems without losing control.

APIs have long been the backbone of digital transformation. Today, they have become something more critical—they are now the execution layer for agentic AI, enabling autonomous systems to discover, invoke, and orchestrate business services. This creates a new “last mile” risk, where AI agents directly interact with enterprise data and workflows.

42Crunch was built to secure this layer.

Our proven end-to-end API security platform, enables organizations and governments worldwide to enforce security and governance across the entire API lifecycle—from design and development through testing and runtime protection. By embedding security directly into API contracts and enforcing policies automatically at scale, 42Crunch ensures APIs are secure by design and continuously protected in production. 

Now, as AI agents become the primary consumers of APIs, 42Crunch has extended this API security foundation to deliver last-mile security for the AI enterprise. Through deterministic guardrails across design, build and runtime, organizations can ensure that AI-generated code is both tested and remediated prior to deployment. Furthermore, the agentic AI interactions with enterprise systems remain governed and controlled at runtime.

In a world where AI is executing business logic, 42Crunch provides the security control plane that ensures innovation does not come at the cost of trust.

"By implementing automated checks on the source code and configuration being deployed through the pipeline as well as the resulting software, you can detect new and updated APIs and ensure that they are properly secured and/or managed. An example of a product that implements this kind of discovery is 42Crunch API Security Platform."
