Why API Security is Now a DevOps Problem, Not Just an AppSec Concern - DevOps.com
Briefly

The rise of APIs in modern development has turned them into security liabilities. API vulnerabilities are often discovered late in the development cycle, contrary to the Shift Left Approach which advocates for early detection. As DevOps manages speed, quality, and infrastructure, API security must be a collective responsibility. Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, where code is deployed rapidly, leave little time for manual checks, necessitating security automation alongside API development to catch vulnerabilities early and efficiently.
API vulnerabilities are increasingly considered security liabilities in modern software, largely due to their presence in CI/CD pipelines, necessitating faster integration of security measures.
DevOps teams must treat API security as a shared responsibility, as ignoring it creates a gap in ownership, especially given their roles in managing pipelines and infrastructure.
