    Salt is highly recommended for anyone who wants to discover, monitor and protect their APIs against various types of attacks. Salt should not be used as a SIEM.

    • The platform could have more options for exporting detailed data from attackers' dashboards.
    • The Attackers dashboard could also have more options of filters in order to support the investigations of the attack.
    • The OAS analysis could present a more detailed view of the found issues.

    We tried controls offered by the IaaS providers but these were hard to manage and did not provide the visibility we wanted. We also protected APIs with a normal WAF but this was only helpful for assets we knew about and API attacks were not caught by the WAF.
