Businesses today use APIs for modern applications, mobile experiences, cloud services, as well as AI and automation workflows. 83% of all web traffic is through APIs. But do you know how many APIs you use? Or which of them are vulnerable? If you don’t, then that can visibility gaps that attackers can exploit. At Evolvous, we offer advanced Akamai API security services to discover, classify monitor and protect APIs across cloud, hybrid and distributed environments, protecting data and boosting confidence in the system.
Shadow and unmanaged APIs create unknown security risks, exposing your data and applications to a multitude of cyberthreats.
Your existing security stack might not detect API abuse, authentication attacks, or other such threats. This significantly increases exposure.
Managing visibility, policies, and protection across distributed cloud and app environments can be difficult, making them more vulnerable.
Find out which of your APIs are exposed to risks and how you can protect them. Contact us to get a detailed API security report.
Akamai API Security Consultancy provides your business with enterprise-grade API discovery, risk analysis, threat detection, and runtime protection across modern application environments.

As a certified Akamai partner, we offer an extensive range of Akamai solutions including Web Application Security, DDoS protection, as well as CDN, Edge & Serverless compute and more.

| The Challenge | Our Solution |
|---|---|
Sensitive customer data exposed through insecure APIs | Continuously monitors API traffic, identifies risky data exposure, and enforces security controls to prevent unauthorized access and data leakage. |
Attackers exploiting forgotten or outdated APIs | Akamai automatically discovers shadow and legacy APIs, assesses risk levels, and brings unmanaged endpoints under security governance. |
Security teams overwhelmed by thousands of API calls daily | Uses AI-driven analytics and automated threat detection to prioritize real threats and reduce manual investigation workloads. |
New AI, mobile, and partner integrations increasing risk | Provides centralized visibility and protection across GenAI, mobile, third-party, and internal APIs to maintain consistent security standards. |

A growing financial platform lacked visibility into unmanaged APIs and faced increasing concerns around authentication abuse and API exposure risks.

We implemented Akamai API security services with shadow API discovery, behavioral monitoring, and runtime protection policies.

The organization improved API visibility significantly, reduced unmanaged API exposure, and strengthened threat detection across customer-facing applications.
These services help enterprises discover, monitor, and protect APIs from abuse, attacks, and unauthorized access.
Shadow API protection identifies undocumented, unmanaged, or unknown APIs that may create hidden security risks.
Organizations cannot secure APIs they do not know exist. API discovery helps reduce exposure and improve governance.
It refers to security measures designed to defend against the most common and critical API vulnerabilities identified by OWASP.
Yes. Modern Akamai API security capabilities help organizations identify and monitor AI-related API endpoints and integrations.
BFSI, healthcare, SaaS, eCommerce, and technology-driven enterprises benefit significantly from enterprise API protection.
Yes. Evolvous provides ongoing monitoring, policy tuning, threat analysis, and operational support.
