Where Sensitive Data Lives
Discover which APIs handle sensitive data like PII, PCI, and PHI content before they ship. StackHawk’s Sensitive Data Identification analyzes your source code to surface high-risk APIs, so your security team can prioritize testing where it truly matters.
“With visibility into high-risk vulnerabilities and the APIs that handle sensitive data, I can prioritize what matters most. When I see PHI at risk in a critical feature, I know it’s time to get my team on it immediately.”
— Brian, Technical Manager at Unlimited Systems
Start Prioritizing What Matters Most
Unlike traditional solutions that rely on runtime traffic analysis, StackHawk’s Sensitive Data Identification analyzes your source code repositories directly. We detect references to sensitive data types before APIs are deployed, giving you early visibility and immediate prioritization.
Smart Risk-Based Prioritization
Automatically detect APIs handling PII, PCI, and PHI data by analyzing source code before deployment. Focus testing on the 10% of APIs that carry 90% of your compliance risk.
Accelerated Security Coverage
Achieve 55% more applications under test through intelligent prioritization.
Compliance and Audit Ready
Gain clear visibility into which APIs process regulated data with source-backed evidence for audit requirements. Demonstrate comprehensive security coverage to executives and compliance teams with measurable protection across your entire API landscape
