Learn why OAS-based security tools fail to protect from common API threats

The OpenAPI Specification (OAS) (fka Swagger) helps developers and security teams alike catalog, document, and describe REST APIs. However, OAS-based security tools alone address only a small fraction of the risk created with APIs and cannot help you prevent API breaches or data loss.
