New Blog | Securing your API Management service from day one with Defender for APIs
By Walner Dort
Introduction
We are excited to announce that you can now secure your Azure API Management (APIM) managed APIs from day one with Defender for APIs. This allows you to enable security as soon as you create your APIM service within the Azure portal. This means that security for APIs is no longer an afterthought and API management administrators do not need to leave the Azure API Management portal experience to turn on protection for their APIs which is a critical entry point into the API attack surface.
Defender for APIs provides full lifecycle protection, detection, and response coverage. Defender for APIs includes unified visibility across your APIM Services within the Azure subscription, security insights with hardening recommendations, classification of sensitive data exposure, and continuous monitoring of APIs with machine learning and threat intelligence-based detections to alert against top OWASP API risks.
Enabling Defender for APIs from APIM instance creation experience in Azure portal
Step 1 – Create a new API Management Service
From the Azure Portal, select Create a resource. You can also select Create a resource on the Azure Home page.
