42Crunch
API Security Platform for the Agentic AI Era
About 42Crunch
42Crunch is a comprehensive API security platform that automates API security across the entire API lifecycle, from design and build to runtime protection. It enables development and security teams to ensure the quality, conformance, and security of their APIs, integrating with popular IDEs, CI/CD pipelines, and API gateways. The platform leverages OpenAPI specifications to perform static analysis (API Audit) and dynamic testing (API Scan) against OWASP API Security Top 10 vulnerabilities, providing instant security scores and remediation guidance. For runtime protection, 42Crunch uses a micro-firewall that enforces security policies based on the API contract, blocking attacks and unauthorized access. In the context of AI and agentic workflows, 42Crunch extends these capabilities to secure AI agents and their interactions with enterprise APIs, providing deterministic guardrails for AI-generated code and enforcing security policies across AI-driven development. AiDOOS enhances the deployment and adoption of 42Crunch by offering a managed platform that simplifies integration with various development environments, infrastructure, and security ecosystems, ensuring that API security is consistently enforced across the enterprise while reducing operational overhead.
Challenges It Solves
- OWASP Top 10 API vulnerabilities going undetected
- Lack of governance and consistency across API development
- Security issues found late in the development lifecycle
- Difficulty securing AI-generated code and agentic workflows
