As local government agencies accelerate digital transformation, the number of APIs connecting critical services is booming. While this drives innovation, it also creates significant security challenges, such as “API sprawl" and data leaks from unmanaged endpoints.

Attendees joined Carahsoft and MuleSoft for a webinar designed specifically for security roles in local government. This session explored strategies that protect your agency’s most critical assets. They learned how to maintain quality, compliance, and development speed simultaneously so that unmanaged APIs don't weaken their security posture.

Attendee's takeaways: 

• Policy enforcement serves as the foundation of API Security.
• Ways to securely pass identity credentials to your APIs to make policy decisions.
• The crucial role of standardization, discovery, and monitoring in an API Security strategy.

• How Anypoint API Manager  supports end-to-end API security.
