| Fact | APISec Platform | apPosture API Security |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | Public APIs run against APISec’s public cloud; private and on-premises APIs can use an APISec Kubernetes or Docker container, and cloud deployments can run in the customer’s GCP, Azure, or AWS environment. | Deployments run self-hosted through Docker Compose, in the customer’s cloud account or as a dedicated managed instance. |
| Discovery | The platform discovers APIs across source code, gateways, ingress, authentication paths, web applications, Postman, SwaggerHub, Insomnia, CI/CD, agents, MCP servers, and LLM call sites. | Endpoint discovery draws on SAST attack-maps, DAST crawling, an attached OpenAPI specification, and external subdomain probing. |
| Documentation depth | The documentation includes API registration, CLI endpoint addition, API calls, dashboards, categories, integrations, and configuration procedures with curl examples. | The documentation includes quick start, installation, platform architecture, API Security, CI/CD, governance, reporting, administration and troubleshooting sections. |
| Integrations | Configuration supports report, issue-tracker, notification, playbook-backup, and single-sign-on integrations. | Supported source-control connections include GitHub, GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, GitLab self-managed, Bitbucket and Azure DevOps. |
