Transform API Security From Theory Into Real-World Experience
The API Security Certified Associate program by Wallarm is a hands-on certification designed to bridge the gap between theory and real-world API security operations. Instead of passive learning, this course puts you in active attack-and-defense scenarios where you see real API attacks, analyze live signals, and learn how to stop them effectively.
This certification goes beyond basic OWASP concepts and is built by API security experts who protect large-scale, API-driven organizations. It trains professionals not just to understand API risks, but to respond confidently when incidents actually happen.
