Best Practices for Bouncing Back Stronger after a Cyber Attack

APIs and modern applications move fast—and so do today’s attackers. From broken authentication to data exposure, AppSec threats often hide in plain sight, undetected by legacy scanners and static policies. That’s where Cloud Application Detection & Response (CADR) comes in: surfacing live, contextual signals that reveal—and respond to—what’s actively exploitable, not just what once was.

During this session, you’ll join Upwind CPO Joshua Burgin for a behind-the-scenes look at how CADR is redefining API and AppSec security. You’ll see what’s changing, what’s not working, and how to stay one step ahead of runtime threats. You’ll also learn how to:
 
• Expose hidden risks in your APIs and apps using runtime data
• Prioritize real threats with real-time, in-context visibility
• Automate protection with enforcement that scales to your cloud
• And more
 
Watch now to learn how you can confidently secure your cloud apps.
