Enterprise Companies Under Attack: Closing Vulnerabilities Has Never Been More Crucial

Report Summary

In 2024, 85% of enterprises experienced at least one API-related breach, with critical systems like CRMs, ERPs, and data warehouses commonly exposed. These breaches leak sensitive customer and financial data, disrupt revenue operations, compromise vendor trust, and expose companies to legal action and regulatory fines. Apps often use APIs to connect deep into financial records, user credentials, and internal tools, so a single exploit can escalate into supply chain halts, reputational damage, or prolonged downtime. As enterprises adopt AI and automation at scale, most lack the visibility to detect these exposures — leaving attackers to extract critically high-value data for weeks before detection.

API Types at High Risk

  1. Internal / SaaS
  2. Public
  3. Web / Mobile
  4. AI Agents (Vendor Integrations)
