StackHawk announced the rollout of its gRPC support, ensuring security best practices are met across all APIs.

This open beta demonstrates StackHawk's commitment to API and application security testing, as the company works to ensure that applications and services developed with gRPC are proactively security tested prior to production.

Joni Klippert, StackHawk co-founder and CEO, said: "Building, testing, operating and monitoring APIs is more critical than ever as threat actors continue to aim successful attacks at these access points. We are committed to aligning ourselves with the shifting needs of the market and our customers to ensure that developers are able to quickly identify and address potential security vulnerabilities before production."

StackHawk's modern platform allows developers to test their applications' security by simulating real-world attacks and identifying vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. gRPC joins a growing list of supported APIs, enabling developers to utilize features including Custom Scan Discovery, Custom Test Data for REST APIs and Custom Test Scripts.
