A majority of organizations say they’ve experienced an API security incident in the past year, and these attacks are expected to grow significantly over the next five years, according to a recent survey.

Developers typically share in the responsibility for stopping these incidents, according to the “API Security Perspectives 2025″ report released in December by API solution provider Kong. The survey queried 700 IT and business leaders in the United States and the U.K.

While the survey did not delve into the exact nature of these incidents, typically organizations face threats due to unauthorized access, unpatched vulnerabilities or DDoS attacks, all of which require immediate action, said Christopher Whaley, an economist and independent consultant who works with Kong on its research reports.
