Akto: Summary
Akto is a security platform with products for API discovery/testing and, according to current documentation, agentic-AI/MCP security. API workflows can use observed traffic to inventory endpoints and run tests, including selected OWASP API risks, in scheduled or CI/CD processes. Deployment options, integrations, coverage, false positives, data retention and privacy controls depend on configuration. Security teams should validate permissions, test scope, production impact and data flows before connecting real traffic.
