API Risk Scoring

A new API Risk Scoring system has been added to the FireTail platform, which evaluates APIs based on open findings and their severity, assigning a risk score to each API. Scores are divided into four bands: critical (80-100), high (60-80), medium (40-60), and low (below 40). A log based scale ensures that higher-severity findings have a significantly greater impact on the overall risk score.

Incident policies

  • New filters for incident policies have been added, allowing policies to now also be applied to specific findings, or type of finding. Available finding types include API design, actions-based, log-based, and cloud configuration-based findings.
  • Incident policies have been added to the search endpoint, with autocomplete on fields.

Findings

  • New CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) findings have been added to the platform, allowing for the discovery of potential security issues related to AWS AppSync and AWS API Gateway. The following findings are now available:
    • API Gateway Stage Missing WAF
    • AppSync Introspection Endpoint Enabled
    • AppSync GraphQL API Missing WAF
    • AppSync GraphQL API Query Depth Limit High
    • AppSync GraphQL API Query Depth Limit Not Set
    • AppSync GraphQL API Resolver Count Limit High
    • AppSync GraphQL API Resolver Count Limit Not Set
    • AppSync GraphQL API Authentication Using API Keys
