Sweet’s API Security:
Building Trust,
One API at a Time

APIs are the backbone of your digital ecosystem—and attackers know it. Gain the visibility and insight needed to protect against API threats and resolve them with confidence and speed.

Sweet API security

Leverage deep Layer 7 visibility to understand API behavior, detect malicious activity, and stop application-layer threats before they escalate.

Encryption

Always encrypt data in transit and at rest.

API Catalog

Get unparalleled insight into your API by organizing APIs by individual endpoints. Gain clarity into request methods, error rates, and potential vulnerabilities. View APIs as resources by organizing APIs based on the services or resources they expose. Together, these views empower teams to effortlessly shift between granular troubleshooting and high-level oversight.

API Posture

Eliminate blind spots across your API ecosystem by identifying misconfigurations, exposed APIs, and outdated dependencies. Sweet surfaces posture risks in context—linking each finding to its affected service, endpoint, and workload—so you can prioritize what matters most and remediate faster. Built-in guardrails help ensure APIs follow best practices for authentication, encryption, and access control.

Real-Time Attack Attempts

Move beyond theory to action. Sweet tracks live attempts to exploit API-driven paths, even if the attack wasn’t successful. Whether it’s probing for weak authentication, fuzzing parameters, or chaining requests for lateral movement, you’ll see which endpoints were targeted, how they were used, and whether defenses held. Real-time telemetry highlights the top IPs and sources targeting your APIs, giving you immediate insight into who’s knocking and what they’re after—so you can connect attack patterns to posture gaps and act before an incident unfolds.

Application Detection and Response (ADR)

See and stop live application-layer (Layer 7) attacks as they happen. Sweet continuously monitors both first- and third-party application behavior at runtime to detect anomalies, unauthorized activity, and signs of active exploitation. By analyzing package-level and function-level behavior, Sweet’s ADR uncovers threats that static scans and log-based tools miss. When malicious activity is detected, Sweet can automatically block it in real time—before it escalates—while surfacing rich context to guide your next steps. No more blind spots. No more guessing. Just real-time protection at the application layer.
