API Exposure Detection and Shadow Endpoint Monitor

P7/10March 11, 2026

WhatA continuous monitoring tool that discovers all publicly exposed API endpoints across an organization's infrastructure and flags unauthenticated or misconfigured ones before attackers find them.

SignalMcKinsey had 200+ fully documented API endpoints publicly exposed with 22 requiring no authentication at all — this pattern of accidental API exposure is endemic in enterprises shipping AI products quickly.

Why NowThe explosion of AI-powered products means companies are shipping APIs at unprecedented speed, often with auto-generated documentation that inadvertently becomes a roadmap for attackers.

MarketEnterprise security and DevSecOps teams; API security market ~$1.5B growing to $10B+ by 2030; competes with Salt Security, Noname Security but focused specifically on exposure detection rather than runtime protection

MoatNetwork effect from scanning across many customers builds the most comprehensive database of common API misconfigurations and exposure patterns specific to AI/LLM platforms
