API penetration testing is a controlled simulation of an attack on interaction points between systems to identify vulnerabilities in request logic, authorization, and data processing.
During the test, we determine whether an attacker can gain unauthorized access, steal data, or bypass protection.
API penetration testing focuses not on the interface or web applications, but on the logic of connections between components. It reveals vulnerabilities invisible during standard checks - improper access rights management, logical errors in scenarios, etc.
API security evaluation helps protect user and business data, assess compliance with security principles, meet standards requirements (for example, ISO 27001, GDPR), and increase the trust of clients and partners.
Every Datami project is unique. To make penetration testing as useful as possible for the client, we take into account the specifics of the business and the customer’s requirements.
We prepare the test report so that it is valuable for IT specialists and clear for non-technical employees, providing a real picture of the state of cybersecurity.
By ordering an API penetration test, you will receive:
The team of certified Datami pentesters combines automated tools with manual methods. We monitor new threats and respond quickly by updating our approach to API penetration testing.
We focus on manual research of business logic, testing of edge cases, analysis of role-based authorization, and the possibility of access token substitution. We apply black-, grey-, and white-box strategies:
Pentesters have no access to internal information. This is the most realistic simulation of a hacker attack.
Ethical hackers have partial knowledge of the API - this approach provides a more complete picture of vulnerabilities.
Full access to documentation, logic, and accounts ensures maximum depth of assessment.
Depending on complexity. Usually, from 5 to 10 business days. We will provide exact timeframes during the project assessment.
The price is influenced by the number of endpoints, level of access, amount of documentation, type of pentesting strategy (black-, grey-, white-box), and additional conditions.
Yes, we sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to guarantee the confidentiality of your data and access.
Yes, we adapt the pentest to your goals — we can check only selected points or specific functions.
No. We test in a controlled mode - all actions are pre-agreed to avoid service interruptions.
Yes, this is a common practice. At the client’s request, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of both the API and the web application frontend within one project.
Metasploit is known for everyone interested in cybersecurity. It is not just a framework but a key driver of ethical hacking and pentesting, becoming the standard for thousands of professionals.
More than 40 fraudulent programs have been identified in the Mozilla Firefox browser. These extensions mimic legitimate wallet tools from popular platforms. The large-scale campaign has been ongoing since April 2025.
According to recent data, applications were discovered that loaded out-of-context ads onto users’ screens. The applications have already been removed by Google from the Play Store. The peak activity exceeded 1.2 billion requests per day.
