APIs Are Critical Infrastructure. Why Aren’t We Treating Them That Way?

APIs now sit at the center of digital services, customer data, and business operations, yet governance and monitoring often lag behind their growing importance. This webinar examines why APIs should be treated as critical infrastructure and explores the risks created when protection and oversight do not keep pace with reliance on them. Industry data and real world examples highlight the gap between API usage and the level of security and governance applied.

The session also outlines practical ways to evaluate whether APIs can support business continuity alongside other critical infrastructure. It reviews common governance and monitoring gaps that may create operational or regulatory risk and provides criteria for improving visibility and runtime monitoring.
