42Crunch, the pioneer in DevSecOps for API security, announced that its freely available API security testing tools for developers—integrated directly into popular IDEs including VS Code, JetBrains, and Eclipse—has surpassed the 2 million downloads worldwide. This milestone reflects the accelerating demand from CISOs for enterprises to adopt a proactive approach to API security.
As AI workloads multiply and organisations rely more heavily on automated systems that consume vast numbers of APIs, the attack surface is expanding at unprecedented speed. The scale and velocity of this API-driven ecosystem demand security approaches that are fully automated, continuously enforced, and built directly into development workflows.
