View reports about API security metrics

The API Security report dashboard provides metrics relevant to the API Security posture of your Postman APIs. This section has three reports:

You can use these reports to answer questions about the security posture of APIs owned by your team that are part of the Public API Network and your team's Private API Network.

API Security

For APIs owned by your team that are in the Public API Network or in your team's Private API Network, and for APIs with a version that has been published internally to your team, the API Security report provides the following information over the past 30 days:

  • Conformance - The number of APIs that don't have any API Security rule violations.
  • Non-conformance - The average number of API Security rule violations per API.
  • API conformance over time - Per day over the last 30 days, the number of APIs without API Security rule violations and the number of APIs with API Security rule violations.
  • Current API landscape - The number of APIs, broken down by the number of API Security rule violations in each.
  • Top 3 rules violated - The three API Security rules that are most frequently violated in APIs.

For specific details about the APIs in the Current API landscape and Top 3 rules violated charts, select some data in the chart. This opens the Drill Down pane, which contains links to the APIs and more information about them.

Public APIs

The Public APIs report provides the following information for APIs in your team's public workspaces over the past 30 days:

  • Conformance - The number of APIs in your team's public workspaces that don't have any API Security rule violations.
  • Non-conformance - The average number of API Security rule violations per API in your team's public workspaces.
  • API conformance over time - Per day over the last 30 days, the number of APIs without API Security rule violations and the number of APIs with API Security rule violations.
  • Current API landscape - The number of APIs in your team's public workspaces, broken down by the number of API Security rule violations in each.
  • Top 3 rules violated - The three API Security rules that are most frequently violated in APIs in your team's public workspaces.

For specific details about the APIs in the Current API landscape and Top 3 rules violated charts, select some data in the chart. This opens the Drill Down pane, which contains links to the APIs and more information about them.

Private Network APIs

The Private Network APIs report provides the following information for APIs in your team's Private API Network over the past 30 days:

  • Conformance - The number of APIs in your team's Private API Network that don't have any API Security rule violations.
  • Non-conformance - The average number of API Security rule violations per API in your team's Private API Network.
  • API conformance over time - Per day over the last 30 days, the number of APIs without API Security rule violations and the number of APIs with API Security rule violations.
  • Current API landscape - The number of APIs in your team's Private API Network, broken down by the number of API Security rule violations in each.
  • Top 3 rules violated - The three API Security rules that are most frequently violated in APIs in your team's Private API Network.
