Who We Are

42Crunch was founded by veterans of the security and API management industry who recognized that the traditional approach to protecting APIs was simply not scalable. APIs are the core building block of every enterprise’s digital strategy, yet they are also the number one attack surface for hackers. The time is now right for a new approach to API security.

Our Mission

42Crunch exists with the purpose of making API developers and security practitioners' lives easier, by providing a platform to automate security into the API development pipeline and giving full visibility and control of security policy enforcement at every stage of the API lifecycle.

We work closely with CISOs, DevSecOps and API teams by offering a purpose-built solution that addresses the key challenges encountered with an API-first or indeed, API-last strategy.

Our goal is to offer end-to-end protection for your APIs with a developer-first platform that enables continuous, automated and scalable API security. We want you to focus on innovation and strategic business outcomes, and let us worry about your APIs.
